Microgravity-induced apoptosis in cultured glial cells.
Apoptosis is a form of naturally occurring cell death that plays fundamental roles during embryonic developement. In adults, it neatly disposes of cells damaged by injuries provoked by external causes such as UV radiation, ionisation and heat shock. Alteration of the gravity vector may be one of the external apoptosis inducers. Neurophysiological impairment signs were seen during space flights ...
متن کاملThe effects of simulated microgravity on cultured chicken embryonic chondrocytes.
Using the cultured chicken embryonic chondrocytes as a model, the effects of simulated microgravity on the microtubular system of the cellular skeleton, extracellular matrix, alkaline phosphatase activity, intracellular free calcium concentration and mitochondrial ATP synthase activity with its oligomycin inhibition rate were studied with a clinostat. The microtubular content was measured by a ...
متن کاملRapid Communications Anisotropic Conduction in Monolayers of Neonatal Rat Heart Cells Cultured
Anisotropic impulse conduction was studied in neonatal rat heart cell monolayers produced by culturing cells on a growth-directing substrate of collagen. Monolayers consisting of parallel-oriented cells without visible intercellular clefts were selected for experiments; cell lengths and widths were 65.8±+12.5 and 12.2+3.2 gm (n=49), respectively. Action potential upstrokes were measured by usin...
متن کاملMicroscopic conduction in cultured strands of neonatal rat heart cells measured with voltage-sensitive dyes.
Microscopic discontinuities in electrical activation were assessed in synthetic strands of neonatal rat myocytes cultured on a growth-directing matrix. An optical method using voltage-sensitive dye (RH-237) and a photodiode technique was used for recordings of membrane potential changes with subcellular resolution. Spatial resolution of the method (diameter of measurement area, 5.5 microns; int...
