Duodenal acid-induced gastric relaxation is mediated by multiple pathways.
In this study, we used an in vivo anesthetized rat model to investigate the mechanisms responsible for duodenal acid-induced inhibition of gastric motility. Intraduodenal infusion of HCl produced a rate-dependent decrease in intragastric pressure. Infusion of HCl at 2 ml/h produced a physiological plasma secretin level and elicited a decrease in intragastric pressure of 3.0 ± 0.2 cmH20. Infusio...
متن کاملCholesterol efflux mediated by apolipoproteins is an active cellular process distinct from efflux mediated by passive diffusion.
It is becoming increasingly accepted that removal of cellular cholesterol occurs by at least two pathways, one involving the well-described aqueous diffusion mechanism and another promoted by lipid-free apolipoproteins. We compared the contribution of apolipoprotein-dependent and -independent pathways, taking into consideration the influence of cellular metabolism, on cholesterol efflux promote...
متن کاملPathways from glutamine to apoptosis.
It is fascinating that a relatively simple amino acid like glutamine is involved in such large variety of cellular reactions. Glutamine is required for nitrogen-stimulated proliferation in many cells, but glutamine stimulates not only the growth of cells but also the expression of surface antigens, the formation of cytokines, the synthesis of heat shock proteins and many more vital events. Amon...
متن کاملAntiurolithic activity of Origanum vulgare is mediated through multiple pathways
BACKGROUND Origanum vulgare Linn has traditionally been used in the treatment of urolithiasis. Therefore, we investigated the crude extract of Origanum vulgare for possible antiurolithic effect, to rationalize its medicinal use. METHODS The crude aqueous-methanolic extract of Origanum vulgare (Ov.Cr) was studied using the in vitro and in vivo methods. In the in vitro experiments, supersaturat...
متن کاملAntiurolithic effect of berberine is mediated through multiple pathways.
Berberine is an isoquinoline alkaloid, occurring in nature as the main constituent of several plants with medicinal use in kidney stone disease. This work was undertaken to evaluate its antiurolithic potential and explore the possible underlying mechanism(s). Berberine was tested in vitro for the antioxidant effect and in vivo for diuretic and antiurolithic effects on an animal model of calcium...
