Loss, Restoration, and Maintenance of Plasma Membrane Integrity
A break in the integrity of the plasma membrane immediately compromises this structure’s essential role as a barrier, and this can kill the affected cell. Yet animal cell plasma membranes, unprotected by a cell wall, are highly vulnerable to mechanically induced disruption. Moreover, many tissue environments generate and receive “physiological” levels of mechanical force that impose shear, tens...
متن کاملArabidopsis synaptotagmin 1 is required for the maintenance of plasma membrane integrity and cell viability.
Plasma membrane repair in animal cells uses synaptotagmin 7, a Ca(2+)-activated membrane fusion protein that mediates delivery of intracellular membranes to wound sites by a mechanism resembling neuronal Ca(2+)-regulated exocytosis. Here, we show that loss of function of the homologous Arabidopsis thaliana Synaptotagmin 1 protein (SYT1) reduces the viability of cells as a consequence of a decre...
متن کاملP-73: Effect of Sodium Dodecyl Sulfate and Different Levels of Clove Bud Extract on Motility, Viability and Plasma Membrane Integrity of Ram Spermatozoa during Cooling and Cryopreservation
Background: Hen egg yolk is a common component of most semen cryopreservation extenders. However, diluents containing the egg yolk may have adverse effects on the quality of the semen. Egg yolk could be solubilized by the addition of sodium dodecyl sulphate (SDS) in semen extenders. Many studies have shown beneficial effects of antioxidants addition to semen freezing extenders. Antioxidants are...
متن کاملsilymarin protects plasma membrane and acrosome integrity in sperm treated with sodium arsenite
background: exposure to arsenic is associated with impairment of male reproductive function by inducing oxidative stress. silymarin with an antioxidant property scavenges free radicals. objective: the aim of this study was to investigate if silymarin can prevent the adverse effects of sodium arsenite on ram sperm plasma membrane and acrosome integrity. materials and methods: ram epidydimal sper...
متن کاملIrvalec Inserts into the Plasma Membrane Causing Rapid Loss of Integrity and Necrotic Cell Death in Tumor Cells
Irvalec is a marine-derived antitumor agent currently undergoing phase II clinical trials. In vitro, Irvalec induces a rapid loss of membrane integrity in tumor cells, accompanied of a significant Ca(2+) influx, perturbations of membrane conductivity, severe swelling and the formation of giant membranous vesicles. All these effects are not observed in Irvalec-resistant cells, or are significant...
