The effect of prolactin on specific activities of adenosine triphosphatases (ATPases) in neural and gliar cells of cerebral cortex, cerebellum and pons-medulla of immature male bonnet monkeys was studied. Na+, K+ dependent ATPase was stimulated, while Mg2+ and Ca2+ dependent ATPase activities showed reduction in neural as well as glial cells of cerebral cortex and cerebellum. However, in pons-medulla, Na+, K+ and Mg2+ dependent ATPases showed the same trend in neural and glial cells, respectively, as in the other two regions. The data obtained reveal that prolactin has specific effect on different ATPases, in different regions of the brain. 相似文献

Cyanide-induced neurotoxicity is associated with altered cellular Ca2+ homeostasis resulting in sustained elevation of cytosolic Ca2+. In order to characterize the effect of cyanide on intracellular signaling mechanisms, the interaction of KCN with the inositol 1,4,5-triphosphate Ca2+ signaling system was determined in the PC12 cell line. KCN in the concentration range of 1.0–100 μM produced a rapid rise in intracellular IP3 levels (peak level occurred within 60 sec); 10 μM KCN elevated intracellular levels of IP3 to 148% of control levels. This response was mediated by phospholipase C (PLC) since U73122, a specific PLC inhibitor, blocked the response. Removal of Ca2+ from the incubation medium and chelation of intracellular Ca2+ with BAPTA partially attenuate the cyanide-stimulated IP3 generation, showing that the response is partially Ca2+ dependent. Also, treatment of cells with nifedipine or LaCl3, Ca2+ channel blockers, partially blocked the generation of IP3. This study shows that cyanide in concentrations as low as 1 μM stimulates IP3 generation that may be mediated by receptor and nonreceptor IP3 production since they have differential dependence on Ca2+. It is proposed that this response is an early intracellular signaling action that can contribute to altered Ca2+ homeostasis characteristic of cyanide neurotoxicity. © 1997 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 相似文献

Although the neurotoxicity of trimethyltin (TMT) is well known, mechanisms are still not clear. Glia have been proposed to mediate the toxic action of TMT on nerve cells. Accordingly, the effects of TMT were tested in primary neuronal cultures from rat cerebellum and compared to effects in astrocytes and mixed cultures. Neuronal damage observed following TMT exposure was less in the presence of astrocytes and astrocytes alone were resistant to TMT. Thus, astrocytes have a protective effect against TMT-induced neurotoxicity. TMT caused an oxidative stress in granule cell cultures involving a variety of oxidative species (O2)*-, H2O2, NO), but astrocytes were less sensitive to TMT-induced oxidative species generation. Antioxidants, glutathione and 7-nitroindazole attenuated neuronal cell death induced by TMT. It appears that oxidative stress mediates a large part of the destructive action of TMT in neuronal cultures. The presence of astrocytes appears to modulate TMT-induced oxidative stress so that TMT causes only a small increase in lipid peroxidation in mouse brain after systemic administration. Thus, TMT induces a pronounced oxidative stress in cultured neurons, but when astrocytes are present, oxidative species play a lesser role in the neurotoxic action of TMT. 相似文献

Phytochemical investigation of the roots and aerial parts of Andrographis paniculata Nees yielded a new flavone, 5-hydroxy-7,2',6'-trimethoxyflavone and an unusual 23-carbon terpenoid, 14-deoxy-15-isopropylidene-11,12-didehydroandrographolide together with five known flavonoids and four known diterpenoids. The structures of these compounds were determined on the basis of spectral and chemical studies. 相似文献

Introduction
Development of cell therapies for repairing the intervertebral disc is limited by the lack of a source of healthy human disc cells. Stem cells, particularly mesenchymal stem cells, are seen as a potential source but differentiation strategies are limited by the lack of specific markers that can distinguish disc cells from articular chondrocytes. 相似文献10.
The genus Ochna L. (Gr, Ochne; wild pear), belonging to the Ochnaceae family, includes ca. 85 species of evergreen trees, shrubs, and shrublets, distributed in tropical Asia, Africa, and America. Several members of this genus have long been used in folk medicine for treatment of various ailments, such as asthma, dysentery, epilepsy, gastric disorders, menstrual complaints, lumbago, ulcers, as an abortifacient, and as antidote against snake bites. Up to now, ca. 111 constituents, viz. flavonoids (including bi-, tri-, and pentaflavonoids), anthranoids, triterpenes, steroids, fatty acids, and a few others have been identified in the genus. Crude extracts and isolated compounds have been found to exhibit analgesic, anti-HIV-1, anti-inflammatory, antimalarial, antimicrobial, and cytotoxic activities, lending support to the rationale behind several of its traditional uses. The present review compiles the informations concerning the traditional uses, phytochemistry, and biological activities of Ochna. 相似文献
