β-Nerve growth factor attenuates hepatocyte injury induced by D-galactosamine in vitro via TrkA NGFR.
Nerve growth factor (NGF) regulates the proliferation, differentiation and survival of cells and is also involved in the wound healing and tissue remodeling processes. The biological effects of NGF are dependent upon receptor signal-mediating functions, which differ between cells. This study attempted to investigate the hepatoprotective effect and possible mechanism of β-NGF on D-galactosamine ...
متن کاملPretreatment of hepatocyte growth factor gene transfer mediated by octaarginine peptide-modified nanoparticles ameliorates LPS/D-galactosamine-induced hepatitis.
We previously reported that an octaarginine- and pH-sensitive fusogenic peptide-modified multifunctional envelope-type nano device (R8-GALA-MEND) produces a high level of gene expression in the liver. In this study, we report on an examination of whether this gene delivery system exerts potent hepatoprotective effects against lipopolysaccharide/D-galactosamine (LPS/D-GalN)-induced acute liver i...
متن کاملFK 506 modulates D-galactosamine-induced hepatitis in rats.
THE immunosuppressive agent FK 506 has been investigated for its adverse effects on the liver, kidney, and the pancreas. I FK 506, however, has multiple biological effects which may be beneficial for the liver. For instance, pretreatment of rats with FK 506 has been shown to both protect the liver from ischemic injury2 and to ameliorate the hepatic injury associated with ischemia and reperfusio...
متن کاملPhospholipase D is Dispensable for Epidermal Growth Factor-Induced Chemotaxis.
α-Synuclein (α-Syn) is implicated in several neurodegenerative disorders, including Parkinson's disease, known collectively as the synucleinopathies. α-Syn is known to be secreted from the cells and may contribute to the progression of the disease. Although extracellular α-Syn is shown to impair platelet-derived growth factor-induced chemotaxis, molecular mechanism of α-Syn-induced motility fai...
متن کاملProtection by dietary Spirulina platensis against D-galactosamine--and acetaminophen-induced liver injuries.
Increasing attention has been paid to Spirulina for its potential clinical uses. The present study investigated the protection by dietary Spirulina platensis against d-galactosamine (d-GalN)- and acetaminophen (APAP)-induced hepatitis in ICR mice. Mice in each group (n 6) were fed with a standard diet (American Institute of Nutrition (AIN)-93G), a positive control diet containing 0.5 % butylate...
