Microglial phenotype is regulated by activity of the transcription factor, NFAT (nuclear factor of activated T cells).
The transcription factor family, nuclear factor of activated T cells (NFAT), regulates immune cell phenotype. Four different calcium/calmodulin-regulated isoforms have been identified in the periphery, but isoform expression in microglia, the resident immune cells of the CNS, has not been fully defined. In this study microglial NFAT isoform expression and involvement in regulating inflammatory ...
متن کاملLeukemia inhibitory factor can potentiate murine megakaryocyte production in vitro.
Receptors for murine leukemia inhibitory factor (LIF) were demonstrated on immature and mature murine megakaryocytes. LIF alone had no effects in culture on the survival or proliferation of normal murine megakaryocytes or their precursors. However, combination of LIF with multipotential-colony-stimulating factor (Multi-CSF) (interleukin-3) enhanced the megakaryocyte colony formation able to be ...
متن کاملHomocysteine Induces Heme Oxygenase-1 Expression via Transcription Factor Nrf2 Activation in HepG2 Cells
Background: Elevated level of plasma homocysteine has been related to various diseases. Patients with hyperhomocysteinemia can develop hepatic steatosis and fibrosis. We hypothesized that oxidative stress induced by homocysteine might play an important role in pathogenesis of liver injury. Also, the cellular response designed to combat oxidative stress is primarily controlled by the transcripti...
متن کاملCan nanotechnology potentiate photodynamic therapy?
Photodynamic therapy (PDT) uses the combination of non-toxic dyes and harmless visible light to produce reactive oxygen species that can kill cancer cells and infectious microorganisms. Due to the tendency of most photosensitizers (PS) to be poorly soluble and to form nonphotoactive aggregates, drug-delivery vehicles have become of high importance. The nanotechnology revolution has provided man...
متن کاملThe role of two families of bacterial enzymes in putrescine synthesis from agmatine via agmatine deiminase.
Putrescine, one of the main biogenic amines associated to microbial food spoilage, can be formed by bacteria from arginine via ornithine decarboxylase (ODC), or from agmatine via agmatine deiminase (AgDI). This study aims to correlate putrescine production from agmatine to the pathway involving N-carbamoylputrescine formation via AdDI (the aguA product) and N-carbamoylputrescine amidohydrolase ...
