Primary gastric malignant melanoma might originate from amine precursor uptake and decarboxylation cells
Primary gastric malignant melanoma is a rare malignant tumor. The purpose of this study is to determine the origination of primary gastric malignant melanoma. We report a case of a 63-year-old male with a history of right limb movement disorder for one month. The patient underwent microscopic supratentorial mass resection and proximal stomach resection. Hematoxylin-eosin and immunohistochemical...
متن کاملEffect of rosiglitazone on amyloid precursor protein processing and Aβ clearance in streptozotocin-induced rat model of Alzheimer’s disease
Objective(s): Increasing evidence suggests that Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is associated with diabetes. Rosiglitazone, a peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ (PPAR-γ) agonist and anti-diabetic agent, may improve symptoms of AD. However, the underlying therapeutic potential of it has not been fully elucidated. Materials and Methods: Rats were divided into four groups: control group, sham o...
متن کاملProcessing of the gastrin precursor. Modulation of phosphorylated, sulfated, and amidated products.
Post-translational processing of the precursor for rat gastrin yields products that include peptides phosphorylated at Ser96, amidated at Phe92, and sulfated at Tyr87 or Tyr103. The phosphorylation site is immediately adjacent to the processing point that gives rise to the biologically active amidated gastrins. We have examined changes in post-translational processing which occur in gastrin cel...
متن کاملPost-translational processing of the porcine gastrin precursor by phosphorylation of the COOH-terminal fragment.
The gene sequence encoding porcine preprogastrin is known; in order to clarify pathways of post-translational processing of the predicted precursor peptide we have characterized material reacting with antibodies to a synthetic peptide corresponding to the expected extreme COOH-terminal portion of the precursor. Radioimmunoassay was used to identify and monitor the purification of peptides in po...
متن کاملInvestigation of the Iron Oxide Nanoparticle Effects on Amyloid Precursor Protein Processing in Hippocampal Cells
Introduction: Iron oxide nanoparticles (Fe2O3-NPs) are small magnetic particles that widely used in different aspects of biology and medicine in modern life. Fe2O3-NP accumulated in the living cells due to absence of active system to excrete the iron ions so damages cellular organelles by highly reactivity. Method: Herein cytotoxic effects of Fe2O3-NP with 50 nm size were investigated on prima...
