Isolation of Collagen Stimulating Factors
Four factors which stimulate collagen synthesis and prolyl hydroxylase activity in cultures of human and mouse fibroblasts have been isolated by molecular sieve chromatography from animal and human fibrotic and cirrhotic livers. These factors do not stimulate protein or DNA synthesis or total DNA in these cultures. It has also been shown that these factors, designated collagen stimulating facto...
متن کاملCellular factories for coenzyme Q10 production
Coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10), a benzoquinone present in most organisms, plays an important role in the electron-transport chain, and its deficiency is associated with various neuropathies and muscular disorders. CoQ10 is the only lipid-soluble antioxidant found in humans, and for this, it is gaining popularity in the cosmetic and healthcare industries. To meet the growing demand for CoQ10, there has be...
متن کاملInteraction with collagen IV protects lens epithelial cells from Fas-dependent apoptosis by stimulating the production of soluble survival factors.
PURPOSE To investigate the sensitivity of lens epithelial cells (LECs) to Fas-dependent apoptosis and to determine the role of interaction with the extracellular matrix (ECM) in the regulation of Fas-dependent apoptosis. METHODS Sensitivity to Fas-mediated apoptosis of primary human LECs and HLE-B3 LECs cultured on different substrates was determined by Hoechst staining after incubation with ...
متن کاملColony Stimulating Factors: Regulation of Production
Life span of mature blood cells is ephemeral, reqUIrIng hematopoiesis throughout life. A complex network of hematopoietic progenitor cells and cytokines maintain an enormous daily production of granulocytes, monocytes, erythrocytes, platelets, and lymphocytes. This population of hematopoietic cells must be able to respond rapidly to changing needs such as bleeding, infections, cancer, or exposu...
متن کاملRole of myocytes in myocardial collagen production.
Excessive collagen deposition may cause abnormal stiffness of the heart during hypertrophy and heart failure. The potent vasoconstrictor angiotensin II seems, via an unknown mechanism, to stimulate collagen production. This study describes the in vitro and ex vivo effects of [Sar(1)]Ang II on collagen production by fibroblasts in culture and in beating, nonworking heart preparations. The effect...
