The transmucosal fluxes of Na+ and Cl- were studied in Giardia lamblia infected mice in the presence or absence of phorbol-12-myristate-13-acetate (PMA), the activator of protein kinase C (PKC) or 1-(5-isoquinolinylsulphonyl)-2-methylpiperazine (H-7), the inhibitor of PKC or Ca(2+)-calmodulin. There was net secretion of Na+ and Cl- in infected animals, while in control animals there was net absorption of these ions. The addition of ionophore or PMA resulted in net secretion of Na+ and Cl- in the control group while in the infected group there was no change in the fluxes of these ions. The selective potent inhibitor of protein kinase C, H-7, reversed the secretion of Na+ and Cl- in infected group to absorption. The addition of PMA and Ca(2+)-ionophore together in the infected group had a partial additive effect. This study suggests that G. lamblia induced fluid secretion involves protein kinase C and further protein kinase C acts in synergism with calcium. 相似文献

Abstract The transmucosal fluxes of Na+ and Cl− were studied in Giardia lamblia -infected mice in the presence of absence of dantrolene (1-(5( p -nitrophenyl)furfurilidene-amino) hydantoin sodiumhydrate ). There was net secretion of Na+ and Cl− in infected animals, while in control animals there was net absorption of these ions. The addition of dantrolene resulted in significant net increase in absorption of Na+ and Cl− in control and experimental groups. Further, mouse intestinal epithelial cells were labelled with [32 P]Pi and then treated with G. lamblia trophozoites and their excretory secretory products separately. The optimum time for inositol triphosphate formation was 15 min in control enterocytes as well as in treated enterocytes. A plateau was formed at higher concentrations. Since raised inositol triphosphate levels mobilize Ca2+ from intracellular stores and dantrolene traps Ca2+ within intracellular calcium stores, the present study thus suggests that intracellular calcium stores are involved in G. lamblia -induced diarrhoea in mice. 相似文献

Reactive oxygen species have been found to be responsible for the tissue injury caused in experimental pyelonephritis in mice. The extent of lipid peroxidation (as assayed by malondialdehyde formation) was found to be increased significantly (p less than .001) in the infected group as compared to the normal mice. Superoxide dismutase and catalase (oxygen free radical scavengers) showed a significant decrease (p less than .001) in the extent of lipid peroxidation even in the presence of infection. Dimethyl sulfoxide, a hydroxyl ion scavenger, was however found to be effective only at 4 and 7 days postinfection (p less than .001). Allopurinol, an inhibitor of xanthine oxidase, did not significantly (p greater than .05) inhibit the formation of lipid peroxides, even upto 7 days postinfection. There was a significant decrease (p less than .05) in the activities of renal brush border membrane enzymes used as markers of renal tissue damage (i.e. alkaline phosphatase, leucine amino-peptidase and gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase) in the infected group as compared to the normal group. In the presence of superoxide dismutase, dimethylsulfoxide and catalase except allopurinol, the activities of all the enzymes but maltase were found to be increased significantly (p less than .05) as compared to the infected group. There was a significant increase (p less than .01) in the bacterial count in the presence of superoxide dismutase and DMSO in infected mice as compared to the infected control mice. However, no significant difference was observed in the catalase and allopurinol treated groups. 相似文献
