Metabolically Induced Cyclic-Amp Oscillations in Pancreatic Beta Cells
425-Pos Board B225 Steady State Deflections Reveal New Bundle Dynamics of Hair Cells Lea Fredrickson, C. Elliott Strimbu, Dolores Bozovic. Hair cells of the inner ear are the mechano-electrical transducers in the biological sound detection process. In an in-vitro preparation of the bullfrog sacculus hair cell bundles exhibit spontaneous oscillations when transepithelial ionic gradients are main...
متن کاملCyclic AMP-induced p53 Destabilization is Independent of CREB in pre-B Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia Cells
Elevated cAMP levels in B-cell precursor acute lymphoblastic leukemia (BCP-ALL) cells attenuate the doxorubicin-induced p53 accumulation and protect cells against apoptosis. cAMP responsive element binding protein (CREB) is a cAMP-stimulated transcription factor that regulates genes whose deregulated expression cooperatein oncogenesis. In the present study, we investigated the role of CREB on i...
متن کاملCyclic AMP accelerates calcium waves in pancreatic acinar cells.
Cytosolic Ca(2+) (Ca(i)(2+)) flux within the pancreatic acinar cell is important both physiologically and pathologically. We examined the role of cAMP in shaping the apical-to-basal Ca(2+) wave generated by the Ca(2+)-activating agonist carbachol. We hypothesized that cAMP modulates intra-acinar Ca(2+) channel opening by affecting either cAMP-dependent protein kinase (PKA) or exchange protein d...
متن کاملUrtica Dioica Distillate Regenerates Pancreatic Beta Cells in Streptozotocin-Induced Diabetic Rats
Background: Urtica dioica is known as an anti-hyperglycemic plant. Urtica dioica distillate (UD) is a traditional Iranian drink, locally known as “aragh gazaneh”. In spite of its widespread consumption in Iran, according to traditional Iranian medicine, there is no scientific report on the usefulness of UD for diabetic patients. This survey was designed to evaluate its protective effects for th...
متن کاملCyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase and Epac mediate cyclic AMP responses in pancreatic acini.
The pancreatic acinar cell has several phenotypic responses to cAMP agonists. At physiological concentrations of the muscarinic agonist carbachol (1 microM) or the CCK analog caerulein (100 pM), ligands that increase cytosolic Ca(2+), cAMP acts synergistically to enhance secretion. Supraphysiological concentrations of carbachol (1 mM) or caerulein (100 nM) suppress secretion and cause intracell...
