Choline deprivation induces hyperhomocysteinemia in rats fed low methionine diets.
To clarify the relationship between dietary choline level and plasma homocysteine concentration, the effects of choline deprivation on plasma homocysteine concentration and related variables were investigated in rats fed a standard (25%) casein (25C) diet or standard soybean protein (25S) diet. Using the 25S diet, the time-dependent effect of choline deprivation and the comparative effects of t...
متن کاملMethanol alters ecto-nucleotidases and acetylcholinesterase in zebrafish brain.
Methanol is a neurotoxic compound that is responsible for serious damage on CNS. Besides being found as an environmental contaminant, this alcohol is also employed as a component of cryoprotector solutions for zebrafish embryos. Here we tested the acute effect of methanol on ecto-nucleotidase (NTPDase, ecto-5'-nucleotidase) and acetylcholinesterase (AChE) activities in zebrafish brain. After ac...
متن کاملRapid eye movement sleep deprivation induces an increase in acetylcholinesterase activity in discrete rat brain regions.
Some upper brainstem cholinergic neurons (pedunculopontine and laterodorsal tegmental nuclei) are involved in the generation of rapid eye movement (REM) sleep and project rostrally to the thalamus and caudally to the medulla oblongata. A previous report showed that 96 h of REM sleep deprivation in rats induced an increase in the activity of brainstem acetylcholinesterase (Achase), the enzyme wh...
متن کاملMonocular deprivation in adult mice alters visual acuity and single-unit activity.
It has been discovered recently that monocular deprivation in young adult mice induces ocular dominance plasticity (ODP). This contradicts the traditional belief that ODP is restricted to a juvenile critical period. However, questions remain. ODP of young adults has been observed only using methods that are indirectly related to vision, and the plasticity of young adults appears diminished in c...
متن کاملComparative study of fatty liver induced by methionine and choline-deficiency in C57BL/6N mice originating from three different sources
Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is believed to be the most prevalent liver disease worldwide and a major cause of chronic liver injury. It is characterized by lipid accumulation in the absence of significant alcohol consumption and frequently progresses to steatohepatitis, liver fibrosis, and hepatocellular carcinoma. Although many studies have been conducted to better understand NAFL...
