Tangeretin protects renal tubular epithelial cells against experimental cisplatin toxicity
Objective(s): Cisplatin is an effective antineoplastic agent; its clinical utility, however, is limited by a few salient toxic side effects like nephrotoxicity. This study aimed to determine the potential protective effects of tangeretin, a citrus-derived flavonoid, against renal tubular cell injury in cisplatin-induced renal toxicity of rats.Materials and Methods: Tangeretin was injected intra...
متن کاملNetrin-1 increases proliferation and migration of renal proximal tubular epithelial cells via the UNC5B receptor.
The cellular hallmark of kidney repair is a rapid proliferation of renal tubular epithelial cells ultimately leading to the restoration of nephron structure and function. Netrin-1 was discovered as a neural guidance cue and found to be expressed outside the nervous system, including in kidney. Previous work showed that netrin-1 is upregulated in response to ischemic injury and ameliorates ische...
متن کاملDiscrete Role for Cytosolic Phospholipase A2α in Platelets
Among several different types of phospholipase A(2) (PLA(2)), cytosolic PLA(2) (cPLA(2))alpha and group IIA (IIA) secretory PLA(2) (sPLA(2)) have been studied intensively. To determine the discrete roles of cPLA(2)alpha in platelets, we generated two sets of genetically engineered mice (cPLA(2)alpha(-/-)/sPLA(2)-IIA(-/-) and cPLA(2)alpha(-/-)/sPLA(2)-IIA(+/+)) and compared their platelet functi...
متن کاملPharmacophore-based discovery of a novel cytosolic phospholipase A2α inhibitor
The release of arachidonic acid, a precursor in the production of prostaglandins and leukotrienes, is achieved by activity of the cytosolic phospholipase A(2)α (cPLA(2)α). Signaling mediated by this class of bioactive lipids, which are collectively referred to as eicosanoids, has numerous effects in physiological and pathological processes. Herein, we report the development of a ligand-based ph...
متن کاملReprogramming by cytosolic extract of human embryonic stem cells improves dopaminergic differentiation potential of human adipose tissue-derived stem cells
The extract of pluripotent stem cells induces dedifferentiation of somatic cells with restricted plasticity. In this study, we used the extract of human embryonic stem cells (hESC) to dedifferentiate adipose tissue-derived stem cells (ADSCs) and examined the impact of this reprogramming event on dopaminergic differentiation of the cells. For this purpose, cytoplasmic extract of ESCs was prepare...
