Chitin from Cuttlebone Activates Inflammatory Cells to Enhance the Cell Migration
Our previous report showed that the extract from cuttlebone (CB) had wound healing effect in burned lesion of rat and the extract was identified as chitin by HPLS analysis. We herein investigated the morphology in CB extract using scanning electron microscope (SEM). Chitin was used as a control. There is no difference in morphology between CB extract and chitin. We also assessed the role of CB ...
متن کاملImmediate Exposure to TNF-α Activates Dendritic Cells Derived from Non-Purified Cord Blood Mononuclear Cells
Background: Tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α) is a primary mediator of immune regulation and might be required in the early stages of DC development from CD34+ cells. However, details of optimal timing of exposure to TNF-α in DC development process in monocytes or non-purified hematopoitic cells are still lacking and clear benefits of this approach to the development of DCs remain to be valid...
متن کاملChitin Extraction from Cuttlebone and its Formulation into Topical Burn Gel
Introduction: Burns represent a large number of skin injuries. They have a wide variety of factors and they impose financial expenses and psychological damage. Wound infection control is one of the major problems in thermal injuries. The skin, that is the body’s main barrier against the preparation of bacteria, will be damaged during burn. In addition to causing pain, irritation, and inflammati...
متن کاملChitin from the Extract of Cuttlebone Induces Acute Inflammation and Enhances MMP1 Expression
We previously reported that the extract from cuttlebone (CB) has wound healing effect in burned lesion of rat. In present study, the main component of CB extract was analyzed and its wound healing activity was evaluated by using in vitro acute inflammation model. The extract of CB stimulated macrophages to increase the production of TNF-α. The extract also enhanced the production of TGF-β and V...
متن کاملThe neurotrophin-3 receptor TrkC directly phosphorylates and activates the nucleotide exchange factor Dbs to enhance Schwann cell migration.
During the development of the peripheral nervous system, Schwann cells, the myelin-forming glia, migrate along axons before initiating myelination. We previously demonstrated that endogenous neurotrophin-3 (NT3) acting through the TrkC tyrosine kinase receptor enhances migration of premyelinating Schwann cells. This signaling pathway is mediated by the c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) cascade regu...
