Hyperglycemia Does Not Affect Iron Mediated Toxicity of Cultured Endothelial and Renal Tubular Epithelial Cells: Influence of L-Carnosine
Iron has been suggested to affect the clinical course of type 2 diabetes (T2DM) as accompanying increased intracellular iron accumulation may provide an alternative source for reactive oxygen species (ROS). Although carnosine has proven its therapeutic efficacy in rodent models of T2DM, little is known about its efficacy to protect cells from iron toxicity. We sought to assess if high glucose (...
متن کاملA study of growth regulators of renal cortical tubular cells in the rabbit liver.
Two growth regulators, a growth stimulator for cultured renal tubular cells and a growth inhibitor, were observed in this study in rabbit liver homogenate after a unilateral nephrectomy. These regulators appeared in the liver on the third day after this nephrectomy, decreased on the seventh day, and disappeared by the fourteenth day. The growth stimulatory activity, termed a tubular cell growth...
متن کاملAutoimmune myocarditis does not require B cells for antigen presentation.
T cells constitute the pathogenic effector cell population in autoimmune myocarditis in BALB/c mice. Using mice rendered deficient for B cells by a targeted disruption to the IgM transmembrane domain or by treatment with anti-IgM Ab from birth, we asked whether B cells are a critical APC in the induction of autoimmune myocarditis. B cell-deficient mice immunized with cardiac myosin develop myoc...
متن کاملTangeretin protects renal tubular epithelial cells against experimental cisplatin toxicity
Objective(s): Cisplatin is an effective antineoplastic agent; its clinical utility, however, is limited by a few salient toxic side effects like nephrotoxicity. This study aimed to determine the potential protective effects of tangeretin, a citrus-derived flavonoid, against renal tubular cell injury in cisplatin-induced renal toxicity of rats.Materials and Methods: Tangeretin was injected intra...
متن کاملAlterations in membrane transport function and cell viability induced by ATP depletion in primary cultured rabbit renal proximal tubular cells.
This study was undertaken to elucidate the underlying mechanisms of ATP depletion-induced membrane transport dysfunction and cell death in renal proximal tubular cells. ATP depletion was induced by incubating cells with 2.5 mM potassium cyanide (KCN)/0.1 mM iodoacetic acid (IAA), and membrane transport function and cell viability were evaluated by measuring Na(+)-dependent phosphate uptake and ...
