The Role of 1-methylcyclopropene (1-MCP) in Improving the Postharvest Quality of Some Cut Rose Cultivars
In order to improve the postharvest quality and the export ability of cut rose (Rosa hybrida L.) cvs. Happy Hour and Bordeaux, the effect of 1-methylcyclopropene (1-MCP) as an ethylene inhibitor, was investigated. 1-MCP was used at 0.3, 0.4, 0.5 and 0.6 g m-3 for 18 h at 8 °C to simulate the transport of flowers. 1-MCP treatment significantly prolonged the vase life and minimized the weight los...
متن کاملAlveolar epithelial cell inhibition of fibroblast proliferation is regulated by MCP-1/CCR2 and mediated by PGE2.
CC chemokine receptor 2 (CCR2) -/- mice are protected from experimental pulmonary fibrosis, a disease increasingly recognized as being mediated by dysfunctional interactions between epithelial cells and fibroblasts. We have sought to investigate the interactions between alveolar epithelial cells (AECs) and fibroblasts in these fibrosis-resistant (CCR2 -/-) and fibrosis-sensitive (CCR2 +/+) mice...
متن کاملExpression of monocyte chemotactic protein (MCP)-1, MCP-2, and MCP-3 by human airway smooth-muscle cells. Modulation by corticosteroids and T-helper 2 cytokines.
We have demonstrated that, in addition to their contractile function, human airway smooth-muscle cells (HASMC) are able to express and to secrete chemokines of the monocyte chemotactic protein (MCP)/ eotaxin subfamily. This group of chemokines is believed to play a fundamental role in the development of allergic airway diseases such as asthma. The expression levels of MCP (MCP-1, -2, and -3) me...
متن کاملCytotoxicity of rabbit macrophage peptides MCP-1 and MCP-2 for mouse tumor cells.
The cytotoxicity of cationic peptides MCP-1 and MCP-2 isolated from rabbit alveolar macrophages was tested against two tumor cell lines of murine lymphosarcoma origin, RAW117-P and RAW117-H10, and a normal mouse connective tissue fibroblast strain, ATCC CCL1.RAW117-H10 is a highly malignant metastatic variant derived from the less malignant RAW117-P. Our results indicate that these peptides pos...
متن کاملPathogenic role of CCL2/MCP-1 in scleroderma.
Scleroderma is a connective tissue disease with unknown etiology characterized by excessive deposition of extracellular matrix in the skin. Cellular infiltrates of certain immune cells and proinflammatory mediators are suggested to play a crucial role in cutaneous fibrosis, forming complicated networks between fibroblasts and immune cells via cell-cell communications. Tissue-selective trafficki...
