Free radical generation by cultured mouse skeletal muscle cells
نویسندگان
چکیده
It has been extensively reported that free radical species are generated by contracting skeletal muscle following different exercise protocols (O’Neill et al. 1996; Reznick et al. 1996; McArdle et al. 2001), including non-damaging contractions (McArdle et al. 2001). However, numerous non-muscle cells are found in skeletal muscle in vivo and the presence of these cells has complicated the interpretation of these data.

Contractile activity-induced oxidative stress: cellular origin and adaptive responses.
Previous studies have reported that oxidizing free radical species are generated during exercise, and there has been considerable interest in the potential effects of these on exercising tissues. We hypothesized that contracting skeletal muscle was a major source of oxidizing free radical species and that untrained skeletal muscle would adapt to the oxidative stress of a single short period of ...
متن کاملIsolation and optimization of mice skeletal muscle satellite cells using preplating method and culture media substitution
Introduction: Satellite cells are known as the main regenerative cell type in skeletal muscles. Our study established a modified digestion and preplating method for the isolation of slow or weak adherent cells for the enrichment of satellite cells. Low-survival rate of these primary stem cells prompted us to address whether cell culture medium substitution might change cell viability status. M...
متن کاملUrsolic Acid Improve Skeletal Muscle Hypertrophy by Increasing of PAX7, Myod and Myogenin Expression and Satellite Cells Proliferation in Native Broiler Chickens
Ursolic acid (UA) is known as a naturally occurring triterpene pentacyclic compound in some medicinal herbs including savory that affects the skeletal muscle. In the current study, the effect of UA was evaluated on C2C12 cells and satellite cells (SCs) isolated from native broiler chicks. First in the in vitro experiment, the C2C12 cell line obtained from the Stem Cell Technology Research Cente...
متن کاملAscorbate enhances iNOS activity by increasing tetrahydrobiopterin in RAW 264.7 cells.
Studies on the effect of ascorbic acid on inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) activity are few and diverse, likely to be dependent on the species of cells. We investigated a role of ascorbic acid in iNOS induction and nitric oxide (NO) generation in mouse macrophage cell line RAW 264.7. Although interferon- (IFN-) gamma alone produced NO end products, ascorbic acid enhanced NO production onl...

Objective(s): Sertoli cells support in vivo germ cell production; but, its exact mechanism has not been well understood. The present study was designed to analyze the effect of Sertoli cells in differentiation of mouse embryonic stem cells (mESCs) to germ cells. Materials and Methods: A fusion construct composed of a Stra8 gene promoter and the coding region of enhanced green fluorescence p...
