Species-specific microRNA roles elucidated following astrocyte activation
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are short non-coding RNAs that play a central role in regulation of gene expression by binding to target genes. Many miRNAs were associated with the function of the central nervous system (CNS) in health and disease. Astrocytes are the CNS most abundant glia cells, providing support by maintaining homeostasis and by regulating neuronal signaling, survival and synaptic plastic...
متن کاملEzrin immunoreactivity reveals specific astrocyte activation in cerebral HIV.
The actin-binding protein ezrin is associated with cellular shape changes, motility, tumor invasion, and lymphocyte activation. We have earlier shown that ezrin immunoreactivity (IR) is faintly present in normal astrocytes but increased in malignant human astrogliomas. We studied the role of ezrin in astrocyte activation, applying immunostaining on serial paraffin sections from human autopsied ...
متن کاملP-92: Specific Activation Requirements of In Vitro Matured Sheep Oocytes following Vitrification-Warming
Background: Oocyte vitrification and assisted oocyte activation have increasingly important implications in assisted reproductive technology. However, an important area of concern with matured oocyte cryobiology is that elements of oocytes intimately involved in metaphase-II arrest may be modified by cryopreservation. In a comparison between different cellular characteristics of unvitrified, vi...
متن کاملAstrocyte metabolism following
Stroke is one of the leading causes of disability and death. Most often, stroke results from blockage of an artery in the brain leading to tissue infarction within the perfusion territory of the affected vessel. Despite the severity of the insult, many cells are not irreversibly damaged within the first few hours and can be rescued by early restoration of blood flow or other interventions. Astr...
متن کاملthe effects of trypsin on rat brain astrocyte activation.
background: astrocytes are cells within the central nervous system which are activated in a wide spectrum of infections, and autoimmune and neurodegenerative diseases.in pathologic states, they produce inflammatory cytokines, chemokines, and nitric oxide (no), and sometimes they induce apoptosis.their protease-activated receptors (pars) can be activated by proteases, e.g.thrombin and ...
