Identification of lipid derivatives in Hep G2 cells.
Metabolism of polyunsaturated fatty acids results in biosynthesis of mediators with different physiological effects. These metabolites include prostaglandins, prostacyclins, isoprostanes and others that are important signalling molecules and regulate a variety of physiological and pathophysiological processes including inflammation. Prostaglandins and isoprostanes are produced by either non-enz...
متن کاملSoy protein peptides regulate cholesterol homeostasis in Hep G2 cells.
The activation of LDL receptors was described recently in a human hepatoma cell line (Hep G2) exposed both to alpha + alpha' subunits from 7S soy globulin and to Croksoy(R)70, a commercial isoflavone-poor soy concentrate. To assess the final identity of the peptide(s) putatively responsible for the biochemical effect, experiments were performed in Hep G2 cells, exposed either to synthetic pepti...
متن کاملDichloroacetate and Etoposide Induce Apoptosis in Hep G2 Cells
Though anti-cancer drugs have been in use since 1971, many still have a fairly low success rate in treating cancer. Since recent studies have linked tumor development to mitochondrial modifications, reversing these changes could reduce tumor size. Cancerous cells suppress their mitochondrial activities and use glycolysis rather than oxidative phosphorylation to synthesize ATP. This process is k...
متن کاملCytokines decrease apolipoprotein accumulation in medium from Hep G2 cells.
Cytokines, important biochemical mediators of inflammation, cause a rapid fall in the plasma concentration of cholesterol in vivo. One mechanism by which cytokines may cause acquired hypocholesterolemia is by decreasing the hepatic synthesis and secretion of apolipoproteins. To test this hypothesis, we incubated Hep G2 cells with human recombinant tumor necrosis factor-alpha, interleukin-1 beta...
متن کاملParacrine upregulation of VEGF receptor mRNA in endothelial cells by hypoxia-exposed Hep G2 cells.
Although vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) plays a role in the growth of hypervascular tumors, mechanisms for paracrine regulation of its receptor expression on vascular endothelial cells remain unknown. This study aimed to investigate whether VEGF released from hypoxia-exposed Hep G2 cells alters expression of the two distinct receptors, kinase insert domain-containing receptor (KDR) a...
