چکیده

Phospholipase C treatment of vesicular subfractions of plasma membranes derived from the three functional domains of rat liver indicated that there is an asymmetric distribution of phospholipids across the bilayer of these membranes. The bile-canalicular and sinusoidal membranes were similar and different from the contiguous membrane.

Cytoplasmic acidification reduces potassium channel activities in the endoplasmic reticulum of rat hepatocytes

Introduction: Intracellular pH (pHi) regulates essentially all aspects of cellular activities. However, it is unknown how endoplasmic reticulum (ER) potassium channels sense pHi. In this study, we investigate the direct effects of pHi on ER potassium channels. Methods: We used channel incorporation into the bilayer lipid membrane method. L-α-phosphatidylcholine, a membrane lipid, was extrac...

Gating Behavior of Endoplasmic Reticulum Potassium Channels of Rat Hepatocytes in Diabetes

Background: Defects in endoplasmic reticulum homeostasis are common occurrences in different diseases, such as diabetes, in which the function of endoplasmic reticulum is disrupted. It is now well established that ion channels of endoplasmic reticulum membrane have a critical role in endoplasmic reticulum luminal homeostasis. Our previous studies showed the presence of an ATP-sensitive cationic...

An evidence for a potassium channel in endoplasmic reticulum based on single channel recording in bilayer lipid membrane

Introduction Numerous studies have demonstrated the presence of potassium selective channels in membranes internal organelles. These channels are essential to a large variety of cellular processes including intracellular 2+ a signaling, protein recycling, charge neutralization and cell protection. In contrast to the sarcoplasmic reticulum + here potassium channels have been clearly ...

Evidences on the existence of a new potassium channel in the rough endoplasmic reticulum (RER) of rat hepatocytes

Introduction: we have recently reported the presence of two potassium currents with 598 and 368 pS conductance in the rough endoplasmic reticulum (RER) membrane. The 598 pS channel was voltage dependent and ATP sensitive. However, the 368 pS channel was rarely observed and its identity remained obscure. Since cationic channels in intracellular organelles such as mitochondria and RER play imp...

Ichthyotoxic Cochlodinium polykrikoides Induces Mitochondrial Mediated Oxidative Stress and Apoptosis in Rat Liver Hepatocytes

In this research, we investigated the cytotoxic mechanisms of Cochlodinium polykrikoidescell lysate on isolated rat liver hepatocytes.This micro algae is responsible for a severe and widespread harmful algal bloom in the Persian Gulf and Gulf of Oman (2008-2009). Isolated hepatocytes were obtained by collagenase perfusion of Sprague-Dawley rat liver.According to our results, incubation of algal...
