Horrnone Secretion from Single Endocrine Cells: Analysis for Lactotrophs in the Anterior Pituitary Gland
The cell immunoblot assay (CIBA) has been shown to be reliable to quantify the arnount of prolactin secreted from individual lactotrophs of the anterior pituitary gland. This assay can be applied to endocrine cells other than the lactotrophs and be modified specifically for a variety of purposes. A nurnber of studies using the techniques including the CIBA have indicated that prolactin secretio...

متن کاملSingle Cell Analysis of the Proinflammatory Responses of Mast Cell by a Real Time Secretion Assay
A real-time secretion monitoring assay from living single-cells was realized by total internal reflection fluorescence imaging with an optically optimized microwell array chip fabricated of an amorphous fluoropolymer, CYTOP on the basis of a fluorescence sandwich immunoassay. After individual mast cells were stimulated with lipopolysaccharide in the microwell array, their proinflammatory respon...
متن کاملCadmium Mimics Estrogen-Driven Cell Proliferation and Prolactin Secretion from Anterior Pituitary Cells
Cadmium (Cd) is a heavy metal of considerable occupational and environmental concern affecting wildlife and human health. Recent studies indicate that Cd, like other heavy metals, can mimic effects of 17β-estradiol (E2) involving E2 receptor (ER) activation. Lactotrophs, the most abundant cell type in anterior pituitary gland, are the main target of E2, which stimulates cell proliferation and i...
متن کاملThe Effects of Progesterone on Glial Cell Line-derived Neurotrophic Factor Secretion from C6 Glioma Cells
Objective(s)Progesterone is a steroid hormone whose biology has been greatly studied within the confines of reproductive function. In recent years, the neuroprotective effects of progesterone have attracted growing interest. Glial cell line-derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF), is a neurotrophic factor which plays a crucial role in the development and maintenance of distinct sets of central and p...
