Human Umbilical Vein Endothelial Cells Secrete Transcobalamin
Transcobalamin II (TC Ill is essential for cellular uptake of cobalamin. However, t h e origin of this t ransport protein is controversial and many organ sources have been suggested. We studied human umbilical vein endothelial cells cultured in vitro. The cells contained T C II (2.3 pmol/108 cells) and released progressively increasing amounts of t h e protein into t h e surrounding medium duri...
متن کاملEnvironmental 50Hz Magnetic Fields Can Increase Viability of Human Umbilical Vein Endothelial Cells (HUVEC)
Introduction Over the last decades, considerable levels of electromagnetic fields (EMFs) have been characterized in the living environment. Recent epidemiological studies on occupational and residential exposure to EMF have shown that 50/60 Hz fields, known as extremely low frequencies (ELF), have various biological effects, such as angiogenesis. This study aimed to investigate the effect of en...
متن کاملHyperglycemia- 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...
متن کاملisolation of human umbilical vein endothelial cells using kiwifruit actinidin
introduction: proteolytic enzymes, specially collagenase, are used to digest extracellular matrix, cells isolation and primary culture. it is important to find new sources of plant or animal protease instead of bacterial or tissue collagenase. in the present research, actinidin, a plentiful protease in kiwifriut, was used to isolate human umbilical vein endothelial cells. materials and methods:...
متن کاملVGB3 Induces Apoptosis by Inhibiting Phosphorylation of NF-κB p65 at Serine 536 in the Human Umbilical Vein Endothelial Cells
Background and objectives: Nuclear factor kappa-light-chain-enhancer of activated B cells (NF-κB) inhibition results in an increase in apoptosis. It has been demonstrated that NF-κB subunit p65 phosphorylation at the IκB kinase phosphorylation site serine 536 (Ser536) is essential for the NF-κB nuclear translocation and activation. Therefore, NF-κB can be downregulated by suppressing its phosph...
