Stress and Atherogenesis: Smooth Muscle Cell Mitogenic Activity and other Biochemical Changes Associated with Sera of \"Stressed\" Subjects
The proliferation of smooth muscle cells in the arterial wall (VSMC) is considered to play a key role in the development of atherosclerosis. To investigate the possible contribution of "stress" (experimentally-induced) to this process, blood from healthy volunteers, ages 21 to 65, screened to exclude major risk factors for coronary heart disease, was assayed for mitogenic activity after the sub...
متن کاملSPHINGOMYELIN METABOLITES A S SECOND MESSENGERS IN AIRWAY SMOOTH MUSCL E CELL P ROLIFERATION
Sphingolipid metabolism was examined in guinea-pig airway smooth muscle cells stimulated by platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) and 4β-phorbol 12- myristate 13-acetate (PMA), as mitogens and bradykinin (BK) as non-mitogen. Stimulation of the cells by PMA and PDGF for 60 min. at 37°C induced the following changes in sphingolipid metabolites: in cells prelabeled with PH] palmitate, a 1.2 f...
متن کاملA rare case of cutaneous leiomyosarcoma in budgerigar (Melopsittacus undulatus)
Leiomyosarcoma in birds is relatively rare. This tumor as a muscle neoplasm was reported in captive and free ranging birds. Smooth muscle cells may develop to the leiomyosracoma, but splenic smooth muscle trabeculae is most common site of the tumor growth. Although budgerigars have an incidence of neoplastic diseases but smooth muscle tumors were rarely reported in this species. To the best o...
متن کاملساخت و بررسی نمونه‌های حجمی و لایه نازک فریت استرانسیوم
In this article, bulk and thin film samples of strontium ferrite have been studied. Due to the high electrical resistivity in strontium ferrite, energy loss due to eddy currents reduces and because of this, it can be used in high frequency magnetic circuits. On the other hand, strontium ferrite has attracted much attention as a permanent magnet. At first, we study the preparation process of b...
متن کاملSmooth Muscle Cell Functionality on Collagen Immobilized Polycaprolactone Nanowire Surfaces
Inhibition of smooth muscle cell (SMC) proliferation and preservation of a differentiated state are important aspects in the management, avoidance and progression of vascular diseases. An understanding of the interaction between SMCs and the biomaterial involved is essential for a successful implant. In this study, we have developed collagen immobilized nanostructured surfaces with controlled a...
