Human Microglial Cells Synthesize Albumin in Brain
Albumin, an abundant plasma protein with multifunctional properties, is mainly synthesized in the liver. Albumin has been implicated in Alzheimer's disease (AD) since it can bind to and transport amyloid beta (Abeta), the causative agent of AD; albumin is also a potent inhibitor of Abeta polymerization. Despite evidence of non-hepatic transcription of albumin in many tissues including kidney an...
متن کاملp10: reactive glial cells for brain injury
a common pathological process that occurred after brain injury is gliosis. gliosis involves the activation of glial cells to proliferate and become hypertrophic to occupy the injured brain areas. in order to form a defense system against the invasion of micro-organisms and cytotoxins into surrounding tissue, glial cells including astrocytes and microglia undergo reactive response to injury. neu...
متن کاملMonocytes and macrophages synthesize and secrete thrombospondin.
Thrombospondin, one of the major glycoproteins released from alpha-granules of thrombin-stimulated platelets, is a disulfide-linked trimer of 160,000-dalton subunits. Cultured human monocytes secreted thrombospondin (determined by an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay) into the culture medium in a time-dependent manner (1.45 micrograms/10(6) cells/24 hr); secretion was totally blocked by cyclohe...
متن کاملHuman Endothelial Cells Synthesize Protein
Human umbilical vein endothelial cells were analyzed for the presence of prothrombin. factor VII, protein C, and protein S in culture supernatants and cell extracts using specific radioimmunoassays. Only protein S was detected. Conditioned medium from 24-hour cultures and cell lysates contained 21.7 ng/mL and 88.8 ng/107 cells of protein S, respectively. Intrinsic labeling and immunoprecipitati...
