Osteogenic protein-1 regulates L1 and neural cell adhesion molecule gene expression in neural cells.
Osteogenic protein-1 (OP-1) is a member of the TGF-beta superfamily that is expressed in the nervous system. We recently showed that human recombinant osteogenic protein-1 (hOP-1) strongly promotes the aggregation of dividing neuroblastoma x glioma hybrid NG108-15 cells, in part by inducing the major isoforms of the neural cell adhesion molecule (N-CAM) (Perides, G., Safran, R. M., Rueger, D. C...
متن کاملRadiation-induced expression of platelet endothelial cell adhesion molecule-1 in cerebral endothelial cells
Background: Radiation-induced molecular changes on the endothelial surface of brain arteriovenous malformations (AVM) may be used as markers for specific vascular targeting agents. In this study, we examined the level of expression of platelet endothelial cell adhesion molecule-1 (PECAM-1) on brain endothelial cell surface after radiation treatment, with the aim of targeting the radiation-induc...
متن کاملNeural cell adhesion molecule expression on renal interstitial cells.
BACKGROUND At early stages of kidney development, the neural cell adhesion molecule (NCAM) is highly expressed on cells of the metanephrogenic mesenchyme. During maturation of the fetal kidney, NCAM gradually disappears. So far, it has been widely accepted that NCAM in the adult kidney is only expressed by nerves, and not by other cell types. METHODS NCAM expression was analysed in human adul...
متن کاملClinical mutations in the L1 neural cell adhesion molecule affect cell-surface expression.
Mutations in the L1 neural cell adhesion molecule, a transmembrane glycoprotein, cause a spectrum of congenital neurological syndromes, ranging from hydrocephalus to mental retardation. Many of these mutations are single amino acid changes that are distributed throughout the various domains of the protein. Defective herpes simplex virus vectors were used to express L1 protein with the clinical ...
متن کاملMorphometrical Study of Polysialylated Neural Cell Adhesion Molecule Positive Cells in Rat Pups Hippocampus Following Induction of Seizure during Pregnancy
Background:The polysialylated neural cell adhesion molecule (PSA-NCAM) is expressed in developing brain. Fetal brain damage is caused by different conditions such as seizure and hypoxia. The present study was designed to investigate the effect of maternal seizures on the number of PSA-NCAM positive cells in pup's hippocampus. Methods: Female Wistar rats were divided into four groups: (a) kindle...
