Entactin/nidogen: synthesis by bovine corneal endothelial cells and distribution in the human cornea.
PURPOSE The purposes of this study were to determine whether entactin/nidogen (E/N) is synthesized and secreted by corneal endothelial cells and to characterize the distribution of E/N in the human cornea. METHODS Cultured bovine corneal endothelial cells were metabolically labeled with [35S]methionine. Newly synthesized E/N was detected in cell lysates and culture medium by immunoprecipitati...
متن کاملDistribution of Nidogen in the Murine Eye and Ocular Phenotype of the Nidogen-1 Knockout Mouse
Distribution and lack of nidogen-1, part of numerous basement membranes, were studied in the mouse eye. For that purpose, eyes of C57BL/6 and nidogen-1 knockout mice were stained immunohistochemically for nidogen-1, and intraocular pressure measurements and light- and electron microscopy were used to study the nidogen-1 knockout animals. In normal mice, nidogen-1 was present in many basement me...
متن کاملA gel-like reconstituted basement membrane matrix containing type Iv collagen,laminin,entactin, nidogen,and heparan sulfate proteoglycan
A gel-like reconstituted basement membrane matrix containing type Iv collagen,laminin,entactin, nidogen,and heparan sulfate proteoglycan was used to examine the invasive properties of human HT1O8Ofibrosar coma cells. Within several hours after seeding, the tumor cells initiated a random migration, leavingbehindchannels etched in the surface of the matrix. Eventually the channels became intercon...
متن کاملToxoplasma gondii infections in chickens from Venezuela: isolation, tissue distribution, and molecular characterization.
The prevalence of Toxoplasma gondii, in free-ranging chickens is a good indicator of the prevalence of T. gondii oocysts in the soil because chickens feed from the ground. The prevalence of T. gondii in 46 free-range chickens (Gallus domesticus) from Venezuela was determined. Antibodies to T. gondii were assayed by the modified agglutination test (MAT). Antibodies were found in 16 (32%) chicken...
متن کاملIsolation, Characterization and Differentiation of Rat Adipose Tissue Derived Mesenchymal Stem Cells
Introduction: Mesenchymal stem cells have the potential of self-renewal and differentiation into different cell types, including blood cells, heart, nerves and cartilage, and have unlimited power for division. These cells can be obtained from cord, before implantation from fertilized cells and also from various tissues of adults although the differentiation power and the ability to reproduce ...
