Green Tea Is a Poor Contributor to Tissue Folate in a Folate Depletion-Repletion Rat Model
Green tea contains folate and epigallocatechin gallate (EGCg), which is suggested to be an antifolate. In this study, we examined whether green tea was a good source of folate in a folate depletion/repletion rat model. Rats fed a folate deficient diet for 4 weeks were supplied with folate for 7 days, and then folate repletion effects were evaluated in terms of increase in total folate level in ...
متن کاملCultured Normal Human Epidermal Keratinocytes
H]glucosamine has been used to label metabolically keratinocyte cell-surface glycoconjugates. The major labelled bands identified on sodium dodecyl sulphate/polyacrylamide gels had apparent molecular weights of greater than 250000, and 150000-80000. Most of these components were trypsin-sensitive, indicating that the label was protein-bound. Some of the labelled components were shown to be prot...
متن کاملCalcium-induced Reorganization Components in Cultured Human of Desmosomal Keratinocytes
We used antibodies raised against individual desmosomal components to study calcium-induced desmosome formation in human keratinocytes. When keratinocytes are forced to grow as a monolayer by reducing the level of calcium ions in the culture medium, there is little contact between adjacent cells. Raising the level of calcium ions rapidly induces desmosome formation, and stratification occurs wi...
متن کاملStudy of HLA-DR synthesis in cultured human keratinocytes.
Within the normal human epidermis only Langerhans and indeterminate cells express HLA-DR. Human keratinocytes (HK), however, may also express HLA-DR in certain disease states characterized by mononuclear cell infiltrates. Previous studies have shown that HK synthesize HLA-DR in response to stimulation by interferon gamma (INF-gamma). The purposes of this study were to define conditions under wh...
