Role of Organic Osmolytes in Myelinolysis
Introduction Organic osmolytes have been implicated in the pathogenesis of myelinolysis because some of them are accumulated slowly during correction of chronic hyponatremia. I investigated whether there was a topographic correlation between demyelinative lesions and the regional changes of organic osmolytes after rapid correction of chronic hyponatremia. In normal female Sprague-Dawley rats, c...
متن کاملImportance of organic osmolytes for osmoregulation by renal medullary cells.
The cells in the renal medulla protect themselves from the extracellular hypertonicity in that region of the kidney by accumulating large amounts of sorbitol, inositol, glycerophosphorylcholine, and betaine. The system is uniquely active in this part of the body, but it represents a throwback to primitive mechanisms by which cells in virtually all organisms, including bacteria, yeasts, plants, ...
متن کاملcompactifications and function spaces on weighted semigruops
chapter one is devoted to a moderate discussion on preliminaries, according to our requirements. chapter two which is based on our work in (24) is devoted introducting weighted semigroups (s, w), and studying some famous function spaces on them, especially the relations between go (s, w) and other function speces are invesigated. in fact this chapter is a complement to (32). one of the main fea...
15 صفحه اولRegulation of intracellular signaling and function by caveolin.
Caveolae, flask-like invaginations of the plasma membrane, were discovered nearly 60 years ago. Originally regarded as fixation artifacts of electron microscopy, the functional role for these structures has taken decades to unravel. The discovery of the caveolin protein in 1992 (by the late Richard G.W. Anderson) accelerated progress in defining the contribution of caveolae to cellular physiolo...
متن کاملCell volume regulation: osmolytes, osmolyte transport, and signal transduction.
In recent years, it has become evident that the volume of a given cell is an important factor not only in defining its intracellular osmolality and its shape, but also in defining other cellular functions, such as transepithelial transport, cell migration, cell growth, cell death, and the regulation of intracellular metabolism. In addition, besides inorganic osmolytes, the existence of organic ...
