چکیده

Synapses between neuroblastoma-hybrid cells and myotubes exhibit a high degree of plasticity. Increase of cyclic adenosine monophosphate (AMP) levels of the hybrid cells for several days results in the appearance of functional voltage-sensitive Ca2+ channels, which are required for evoked secretion of acetylcholine. The results show that cyclic AMP regulates synaptogenesis by regulating the expression of voltage-sensitive Ca2+ channels, and suggest that cyclic AMP affects posttranslational modifications of some glycoproteins and cellular levels of certain proteins.

The most distinctive attribute of long-term memory is persistence over time. New studies have uncovered many aspects of the molecular and cellular biology of synaptic plasticity, and the acquisition and consolidation of memory, which are thought to depend on synaptic plasticity. Much less, however, is known about the molecular and cellular biology of long-term memory persistence. Recent finding...

Sodium Fluoride Mimics Effects of Both Agonists and Antagonists on Intact Human Platelets by Simultaneous Modulation of Phospholipase C and Adenylate Cyclase Activity

Using intact human platelets, we studied the effect of sodium fluoride (NaF) on platelet aggregation and release reaction and correlated the functional changes to intracellular events specific for either agonist-induced or antagonist-induced platelet responses. At lower concentrations, with a peak activity between 30 and 40 mmol/L, NaF induced aggregation and release of adenosine 5’-triphosphat...

Expression of Recombinant Phosphodiesterase 3A and 3B Using Baculovirus Expression System

Background: Phosphodiesterase 3A (PDE3A) and phosphodiesterase 3B (PDE3B) play a critical role in the regulation of intracellular level of adenosine 3´,5´-cyclic monophosphate (cyclic AMP, cAMP) and guanosine 3´,5´-cyclic monophosphate (cyclic GMP, cGMP). Subsequently PDE3 inhibitors have shown to relax vascular and inhibit platelet aggregation in cardiovascular disease. Objectives: In th...

Effect of Thyroid Activity Modulation on Some Histological and Biochemical Aspects in Broiler Chicks

An experiment was conducted to investigate the effect of thyroid gland activity modulation (Hyper or hypothyroidism) on energy utilization in broiler chickens. Two hundred and forty one-day-old Cobb broiler chicks were distributed into three dietary metabolizable energy (ME) treatment groups (80 chicks each). The control group (E0) was fed basal diet (3150 kcal/kg diet), the second group (E1) w...
