Conserving energy during hibernation.
How hibernators manage to reduce their high metabolic rate – and therefore energy expenditure – from times when they are active to small almost immeasurable fractions during hibernation has attracted scientific inquiry for over a century. This problemwas also the subject of the classic study by Barbara D. Snapp and H. Craig Heller published in 1981, which presented detailed measurements of diff...
متن کاملThe formation, occurrence, and function of β-apocarotenoids: β-carotene metabolites that may modulate nuclear receptor signaling.
β-Carotene is the major dietary source of provitamin A. Central cleavage of β-carotene yields 2 molecules of retinal followed by further oxidation to retinoic acid. Eccentric cleavage of β-carotene occurs at double bonds other than the central double bond, and the products of these reactions are β-apocarotenals and β-apocarotenones. We reviewed recent developments in 3 areas: 1): the enzymatic ...
متن کاملLipoxygenase metabolites of arachidonic acid modulate hematopoiesis.
Lipoxygenase (LPO) metabolites of arachidonic acid participate in the activation and/or proliferation of a variety of cell types. In this study, we examined the role of LPO metabolites in controlling myelopoiesis and erythropoiesis in vitro. Monocyte depleted cells (MDC) prepared from human whole blood or whole mononuclear cells from human bone marrow were cultured in methylcellulose in the pre...
متن کاملAnti-apoptotic signaling as a cytoprotective mechanism in mammalian hibernation
In the context of normal cell turnover, apoptosis is a natural phenomenon involved in making essential life and death decisions. Apoptotic pathways balance signals which promote cell death (pro-apoptotic pathways) or counteract these signals (anti-apoptotic pathways). We proposed that changes in anti-apoptotic proteins would occur during mammalian hibernation to aid cell preservation during pro...
متن کاملSphingosine kinases and their metabolites modulate endolysosomal trafficking in photoreceptors
Internalized membrane proteins are either transported to late endosomes and lysosomes for degradation or recycled to the plasma membrane. Although proteins involved in trafficking and sorting have been well studied, far less is known about the lipid molecules that regulate the intracellular trafficking of membrane proteins. We studied the function of sphingosine kinases and their metabolites in...
