Vasoactive intestinal peptide stimulates neuropeptide Y gene expression and causes neurite extension in PC12 cells through independent mechanisms.
Vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP) is widely recognized as a regulator of tyrosine hydroxylase via a mechanism of trans-synaptic activation. Subsets of adrenal medullary cells and postganglionic sympathetic nerves coexpress the peptide neurotransmitter neuropeptide Y (NPY) with catecholamines. Using PC12 cells transiently expressing a fusion gene in which the bacterial enzyme chloramphenicol a...
متن کاملNegative Regulation of Semaphorin-3A Expression in Peripheral Blood Mononuclear Cells Using MicroRNA-497-5p
Background: Semaphorin-3A (Sema3A), as a secreted semaphorin, is an immune modulator molecule participating in the pathogenesis of autoimmune diseases. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) modulate the target-gene expression at the post-transcriptional level. It has been proposed that miRNAs may be crucial to the modulation of the function of semaphorins. Previous findings have proven that miR-497-5p is upregula...
متن کاملMeningeal cell-derived semaphorin 3A inhibits neurite outgrowth.
The neural scar that forms after injury to the mammalian central nervous system is a barrier to sprouting and regenerating axons. In addition to reactive astrocytes that are present throughout the lesion site, leptomeningeal fibroblasts invade the lesion core. When isolated in vitro, these cells form a very poor substrate for growing neurites, even more so than reactive astrocytes. Nevertheless...
متن کاملHyperbaric environment up-regulates CD15s expression on leukocytes, down-regulates CD77 expression on renal cells and up-regulates CD34 expression on pulmonary and cardiac cells in rat
Objective(s): The aim of this study was to estimate effects of hyperbaric (HB) treatment by determination of CD15s and CD11b leukocyte proinflammatory markers expression. In addition, this study describes changes in CD77 and CD34 expression on rat endothelial cells in renal, pulmonary and cardiac tissue following exposure to hyperbaric pressure. Materials and Methods:Expression of CD11b and CD...
متن کاملHuman neuroma contains increased levels of semaphorin 3A, which surrounds nerve fibers and reduces neurite extension in vitro.
Neuroma formation after peripheral nerve injury is detrimental to functional recovery and is therefore a significant clinical problem. The molecular basis for this phenomenon is not fully understood. Here, we show that the expression of the chemorepulsive protein semaphorin 3A (sema3A), but not semaphorin 3F, is increased in human neuroma tissue that has formed in severe obstetric brachial plex...
