PGE2 suppresses mitogen-induced Ca2+ mobilization in T cells.
PGE2-mediated suppression of T cell proliferation during sepsis could result from altered Ca2+ signaling. The present study evaluated the effects of PGE2 on Ca2+ release from intracellular stores and its influx through the plasma membrane in splenic T cells from Sprague-Dawley rats. Intracellular Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]i) responses in individual T cells were assessed using the Ca2+ imaging t...
متن کاملRegulation of connexin 43 and microRNA expression via β2-adrenoceptor signaling in 1321N1 astrocytoma cells.
Connexin 43 (Cx43) is the main gap junction protein in astrocytes and exerts the same effects on growth inhibition in astrocytoma and glioma as microRNA-146a (miR-146a) in glioma. β2-adrenergic receptor (AR) signaling modulates Cx43 expression in myocytes via components downstream of protein kinase A (PKA) and exchange protein directly activated by cAMP (Epac). However, it remains to be elucida...
متن کاملNerve growth factor-inducing activity of Hericium erinaceus in 1321N1 human astrocytoma cells.
Neurotrophic factors are essential to maintain and organize neurons functionally; thereby neurotrophic factor-like substances or their inducers are expected to be applied to the treatment of neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's disease. In the present study, we firstly examined the effects of ethanol extracts of four edible mushrooms, Hericium erinaceus (Yamabushitake), Pleurotus eryn...
متن کاملPurine nucleoside-dependent inhibition of cellular proliferation in 1321N1 human astrocytoma cells.
We examined the effects of purines and the pyrimidine UTP on cellular proliferation in the human astrocytoma cell line 1321N1. Treatment of cultured cells with 100 microM ATP or 2-chloroadenosine (2-CA) resulted in significant reductions in cell numbers after 2 days, whereas adenosine (ADO) exhibited a slower time course of inhibition of cell growth. Treatment with 100 microM UTP had no effect ...
متن کاملSubnanomolar concentrations of thrombin enhance the volume-sensitive efflux of taurine from human 1321N1 astrocytoma cells.
The ability of subnanomolar concentrations of thrombin to protect both neurons and glia from ischemia and other metabolic insults has recently been reported. In this study, we demonstrate an additional neuroprotective property of thrombin; its ability to promote the release of the organic osmolyte, taurine, in response to hypoosmotic stress. Incubation of human 1321N1 astrocytoma cells with hyp...
