Quantitative Proteomics Reveals Cellular Targets of Celastrol
Celastrol, a natural substance isolated from plant extracts used in traditional Chinese medicine, has been extensively investigated as a possible drug for treatment of cancer, autoimmune diseases, and protein misfolding disorders. Although studies focusing on celastrol's effects in specific cellular pathways have revealed a considerable number of targets in a diverse array of in vitro models th...
متن کاملSynthesis of basement membrane collagen by cultured human endothelial cells
Studies were performed to determine if cultured human endothelial cells synthesized basement membrane collagen. In culture, endothelial cells were attached to grossly visible membranous structures which on light microscopy were composed of ribbons of dense, amorphous material. On transmission electron microscopy, these membranous structures consisted of amorphous basement membrane, and material...
متن کاملAortic Endothelial Cells
Isolated, cultured arterial endothelial cells express an acetylcholine (ACh)-activated K current in addition to an inward rectifier current whose conductance Ls unaffected by ACh. The cholinergic K current is specifically blocked by atropine (1 /xM) and shows single saturation kinetics with ACh (halfmaximal stimulation 51 nM ACh). Unlike the cardiac muscarinic receptor-gated K channel, its stim...
متن کاملBovine Aortic Endothelial Cells
As bstract. We examined the effect of bovine aortic endothelial cell culture supernatants upon the generation of procoagulant activity by human blood monocytes. Confluent endothelial monolayers were cultured for up to 96 h. At timed intervals, culture supernatants were collected and incubated for 5 h with lipopolysaccharide-stimulated human peripheral blood mononuclear cells. The procoagulant a...
متن کاملHydrogen peroxide decreases pHi in human aortic endothelial cells by inhibiting Na+/H+ exchange.
Postischemic endothelial dysfunction may occur as a result of the effects of endogenous oxidants like hydrogen peroxide. Since endothelium-dependent vasodilator function may be affected by pHi, the effect of hydrogen peroxide on endothelial pHi was examined. Hydrogen peroxide (100 micromol/L for 10 minutes) decreased pHi from 7.24+/-0.01 to 7.02+/-0.02 and inhibited recovery from an ammonium ch...
