چکیده

Background: Reactive oxygen species and other free radicals, together with glucose its metabolites are believed to play important roles in the aging process. The carbohydrate components of glycosylated proteins mediating cell-cell interactions a role has been suggested for them Erythrocytes critical cells human body, heavily relatively easily available so good candidates yield insights into how patterns glycosylation change age disease. It claimed, based on periodic acid Schiff assay, that is associated decline erythrocyte surface sialic acids. Plant lectins allow more specific assays glycans, including determining linkage acids analysis single by flow cytometry. Methods: lectins, Maackia amurensis lectin II (MAL), binding α-2,3 linked Sambucus nigra (SNA), α-2,6 acids, were used cytometry western blot membrane. N-glycomics mass spectrometry determines glycan structures. Donors varying hyperglycemia, as indicated HbA1c analysed. Results: Erythrocyte have no significant associations donor age. A combination storage cellular produces loss By contrast, terminal fucoses increase significantly In order determine which aspects this change, we investigated whether novel biomarker higher plasma values, assessed glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) reactive (ROS) generation. Fucose levels levels, but not ROS generation. Conclusion: Our study identifies glycan-based biomarkers simplicity lectin-based provide an attractive tool disease processes.

Hyperglycemia- Induced NF-κB Activation Increases microRNA-146a Expression in Human Umbilical Vein Endothelial Cells

Background & objectives: Nuclear Factor kappa B (NF-κB), a master switch transcription factor, plays a critical role in the progression and development of hyperglycemia-induced microangiopathy. Hyperglycemia activates NF-κB, and subsequently increases pro-inflammatory cytokines such as TNF-α, IL-6 and IL-1β leading to development of inflammation. Some new studies have revealed the involvement o...

EGF increases TRPM6 activity and surface expression.

Recent identification of a mutation in the EGF gene that causes isolated recessive hypomagnesemia led to the finding that EGF increases the activity of the epithelial magnesium (Mg2+) channel transient receptor potential M6 (TRPM6). To investigate the molecular mechanism mediating this effect, we performed whole-cell patch-clamp recordings of TRPM6 expressed in human embryonic kidney 293 (HEK29...

Membrane protein carboxyl methylation increases with human erythrocyte age. Evidence for an increase in the number of methylatable sites.

The level of carboxyl methylation of membrane proteins has been measured in intact human erythrocyte populations of different ages separated by density gradient centrifugation. Age separation was confirmed by measurement of cytosolic pyruvate kinase specific activity in each fraction. When cells of different ages were incubated with L-[methyl-3H]methionine, the steady state level of 3H radioact...

Human erythrocyte antigens. Regulation of expression of a novel erythrocyte surface antigen by the inhibitor Lutheran In(Lu) gene.

Our study describes a novel human erythrocyte protein antigen, the expression of which is regulated by the rare Lutheran inhibitor In(Lu) gene. We have produced a monoclonal antibody (A3D8) that bound strongly to erythrocytes from subjects with Lutheran phenotypes Lu(a+b+), Lu(a+b-), and Lu(a-b+) but bound negligibly to erythrocytes from subjects with the dominant form of Lu(a-b-) phenotype, re...

The natural frequency of human prospective memory increases with age.

Autobiographical memory (AM), the recollection of past experiences, and prospective memory (PM), the prospection of future events, are prominent components of subjective life, yet data on the frequencies of their occurrence are limited. Using experience sampling, we quantified the incidence of AM and PM in natural settings among various age groups. Individuals of all ages reported engaging in A...
