Catecholamines induce net salt and water movements in duck red cells incubated in isotonic solutions. The rate of this response is approximately three times greater than a comparable effect observed in 400 mosmol hypertonic solutions in the absence of hormone (W.F. Schmidt and T. J. McManus. 1977 a.J. Gen. Physiol. 70:59-79. Otherwise, these two systems share a great many similarities. In both cases, net water and salt movements have a marked dependence on external cation concentrations, are sensitive to furosemide and insensitive to ouabain, and allow the substitution of rubidium for external potassium. In the presence of ouabain, but the absence of external potassium (or rubidium), a furosemide-sensitive net extrusion of sodium against a large electrochemical gradient can be demonstrated. When norepinephrine-treated cells are incubated with ouabain and sufficient external sodium, the furosemide-sensitive, unidirectional influxes of both sodium and rubidium are half- maximally saturated at similar rubidium concentrations; with saturating external rubidium, the same fluxes are half-maximal at comparable levels of external sodium. In the absence of sodium, a catecholamine-stimulated, furosemide-sensitive influx of rubidium persists. In the absence of rubidium, a similar but smaller component of sodium influx can be seen. We interpret these results in terms of a cotransport model for sodium plus potassium which is activated by hypertonicity or norepinephrine. When either ion is absent from the incubation medium, the system promotes an exchange-diffusion type of movement of the co-ion into the cells. In the absence of external potassium, net movement of potassium out of the cell leads to a coupled extrusion of sodium against its electrochemical gradient. 相似文献

Gastric secretion and gastrin under progressive doses of somatostatin-14 and -28 administered intraperitoneally to the rat 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The actions of progressive doses of intraperitoneally (IP) administered somatostatin-14 (SS-14) and -28 (SS-28) on gastric secretion (acid, pepsin) and mucosal blood flow (MBF) were studied in conscious gastric fistula rats both under basal conditions and under additional administration of pentagastrin. Also, somatostatin-like immunoreactivity was measured in aortal blood in all groups as well as aortal gastrin levels under basal conditions. IP infusion of equimolar doses of SS-14 and SS-28 resulted in an equal and dose-dependent inhibition of basal as well as pentagastrin-stimulated gastric acid secretion. MBF was reduced by either peptide both in the basal and pentagastrin experiments. Under basal conditions pepsin secretion was significantly increased by infusion of SS-14 at the higher doses, by infusion of SS-28 only at the intermediate dose (3.1 nmole kg-1.hr-1). In the pentagastrin experiments, low and intermediate doses of SS-14 tended to lower pepsin outputs but the highest dose of SS-14 stimulated pepsin secretion, whereas SS-28 had no effect on pepsin. Administration of SS-28 inhibited gastrin only at the highest dose (12.3 nmole kg-1.hr-1), and SS-14 had no influence at all on gastrin. After IP infusion of both peptides, plasma SLI rose dose-dependently under basal and stimulated conditions. Gel chromatography indicated an in-vivo conversion of SS-28 to SS-14 or intermediate fragments. It is concluded that SS-14 and SS-28 delivered by IP infusion, inhibit basal and stimulated gastric acid equally in the rat without suppressing gastrin. The mechanism underlying SS-mediated pepsin stimulation is unknown. 相似文献

Hypoxia is one of the major common components of vascular risk factors for pathogenesis of Alzheimer’s disease. This study
investigated the possible relationship between hypoxia and alternative splicing of the excitatory amino acid transporter 2
(EAAT2) in a transgenic model for Alzheimer’s disease. We used an APP23 mouse model prior to amyloid deposition and subjected
it to chemical hypoxia treatment as induced by 3-nitropropionic acid. One hour after administration of 3-nitropropionic acid
changes in the expression of the 5′-splice forms mEAAT2/5UT3, mEAAT2/5UT4, and mEAAT2/5UT5 were found in the frontal cortex,
hippocampus and cerebellum of the APP23 model. In untreated APP23 animals the expression of EAAT2 splice variants was unchanged.
Our results demonstrate that hypoxia facilitates alternative splicing of EAAT2 in the APP23 model. This may be a molecular
mechanism linking vascular factors to early pathophysiology of Alzheimer’s disease. 相似文献

Restriction-map variation associated with the G6PD polymorphism in natural populations of Drosophila melanogaster 总被引:10,自引:0,他引:10
Restriction-map variation was studied in 126 copies of the G6pd region in X
chromosome lines of Drosophila melanogaster from North America, Europe, and
Africa. Special attention was focused on the distribution of variation
relative to the geographically variable polymorphism for two
electrophoretic variants. Nucleotide heterozygosity as determined by eight
six-cutter restriction enzymes for the 13-kb region is estimated, on the
basis of the worldwide sample, to be 0.065%, which is the lowest value
reported for any comparable region in the D. melanogaster genome.
Significant linkage disequilibrium between electrophoretic alleles and
restriction-site variation is observed for several sites. In contrast to
published studies of other genetic regions, there are large insertions that
reach significant frequencies and are found across considerable geographic
distances. There is a clustering of this variation inside the first large
intervening sequence of the G6PD gene.

Irinotecan is a widely used topoisomerase-I-inhibitor with a very narrow therapeutic window because of its severe toxicity. In the current study we have examined the effects of fasting prior to irinotecan treatment on toxicity and anti-tumor activity. FabplCre;Apc15lox/+ mice, which spontaneously develop intestinal tumors, of 27 weeks of age were randomized into 3-day fasted and ad libitum fed groups, followed by treatment with a flat-fixed high dose of irinotecan or vehicle. Side-effects were recorded until 11 days after the start of the experiment. Tumor size, and markers for cell-cycle activity, proliferation, angiogenesis, and senescence were measured. Fasted mice were protected against the side-effects of irinotecan treatment. Ad libitum fed mice developed visible signs of discomfort including weight loss, lower activity, ruffled coat, hunched-back posture, diarrhea, and leukopenia. Irinotecan reduced tumor size in fasted and ad libitum fed groups similarly compared to untreated controls (2.4 ± 0.67 mm and 2.4 ± 0.82 mm versus 3.0 ± 1.05 mm and 2.8 ± 1.08 mm respectively, P < 0.001). Immunohistochemical analysis showed reduced proliferation, a reduced number of vascular endothelial cells, and increased levels of senescence in tumors of both irinotecan treated groups. In conclusion, 3 days of fasting protects against the toxic side-effects of irinotecan in a clinically relevant mouse model of spontaneously developing colorectal cancer without affecting its anti-tumor activity. These results support fasting as a powerful way to improve treatment of colorectal carcinoma patients. 相似文献

Background aimsTo date there are only very few data available on the ligamentogenic differentiation capacity of mesenchymal stromal/progenitor cells (MSC) and anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) fibroblasts.MethodsWe describe the in vitro potential of MSC and ACL cells to undergo ligamentogenic differentiation upon transduction with adenoviral vectors encoding the human cDNA for bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) 12 and BMP13, also known as growth and differentiation factors (GDF) 6 and 7, respectively.ResultsTransgene expression for at least 14 days was confirmed by Western blot analyzes. After 21 days of cell culture within collagen type I hydrogels, histochemical (hematoxylin/eosin (H&E), Azan and van Gieson), immunohistochemical and polymerase chain reaction (PCR) analyzes of the genetically modified constructs of both cell types revealed elongated, viable fibroblast-like cells embedded in a ligament-like matrix rich in collagens, vimentin, fibronectin, decorin, elastin, scleraxis, tenascin, and tenomodulin.ConclusionsIt appears that both MSC and ACL fibroblasts are capable of ligamentogenic differentiation with these factors. This information may aid in the development of biologic approaches to repair and restore ACL after injury. 相似文献

Nucleotide variation in the triosephosphate isomerase (Tpi) locus of Drosophila melanogaster and Drosophila simulans 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3

DNA sequence variation in a 1.1-kb region including the coding portion of
the Tpi locus was examined in 25 homozygous third-chromosome lines of
Drosophila melanogaster, nine lines of Drosophila simulans, and one line of
Drosophila yakuba. Our data show that the widespread allozyme polymorphism
observed in cosmopolitan D. melanogaster is due to a glutamic acid
substitution occurring in a phylogenetically conserved lysine that has been
identified as part of the "hinged-lid" active site of the enzyme. This
observation suggests that the replacement polymorphism may have important
functional consequences. One replacement polymorphism was also observed in
D. simulans, although its functional relevance is more difficult to assess,
since it affects a site that is not strongly conserved. This amino acid
change in D. simulans is associated with a single lineage possessing seven
unique silent substitutions, which may be indicative of balancing selection
or population subdivision. The absence of fixed amino acid differences
between D. melanogaster and D. simulans and only a single difference with
D. yakuba suggests that triose phosphate isomerase is under strong
functional constraint. Silent variation is slightly higher for D.
melanogaster than for D. simulans. Finally, we outline the general lack of
evidence for old balanced polymorphisms at allozyme loci in D.
melanogaster.
