Deprenyl Can Mediate Neuronal Protection Rather than Neuronal Rescue
Background and Objective: Deprenyl is a drug for the treatment of Parkinson’s disease, where the dopaminergic neurons are the target of this drug. Several reports also documented that deprenyl has an effect on the sensory and motor neurons. There are some reports about the mode of action of deprenyl on m...
متن کاملEnvelope glycoproteins of hantavirus can mediate cell-cell fusion independently.
Hantaviruses (HTVs) are enveloped viruses and can induce low PH-dependent cell fusion. In this report we molecularly cloned viral glycoproteins (GPs) cDNA and nucleocapsid (NP) cDNA of two strains of Hantaan virus and one strain of Seoul virus and expressed in Vero E6 cells under control of a CMV promoter. The examinations of viral gene expressions were carried out by IFA and immune-precipitati...
متن کاملErythropoietin is a JAK2 and ERK1/2 effector that can promote renal tumor cell proliferation under hypoxic conditions
BACKGROUND Erythropoietin (EPO) provides an alternative to transfusion for increasing red blood cell mass and treating anemia in cancer patients. However, recent studies have reported increased adverse events and/or reduced survival in patients receiving both EPO and chemotherapy, potentially related to EPO-induced cancer progression. Additional preclinical studies that elucidate the possible m...
متن کاملDiabetic nephropathy: can renoprotection be extrapolated to cardiovascular protection?
Recent years have seen the seemingly unstoppable attack by cardiologists on all diseases that limit cardiovascular health. Nowhere is this more evident than in the case of diabetes mellitus, the subject of an important article in this issue of Circulation1 that relates to renoprotection in type 2 diabetes mellitus. As a background, type 2 diabetes is increasing in incidence and cardiological si...
متن کاملDrosophila fasciclin I is a novel homophilic adhesion molecule that along with fasciclin III can mediate cell sorting
Fasciclin I is a membrane-associated glycoprotein that is regionally expressed on a subset of fasciculating axons during neuronal development in insects; it is expressed on apposing cell surfaces, suggesting a role in specific cell adhesion. In this paper we show that Drosophila fasciclin I is a novel homophilic cell adhesion molecule. When the nonadhesive Drosophila S2 cells are transfected wi...
