N-acetyl-seryl-aspartyl-lysyl-proline stimulates angiogenesis in vitro and in vivo.
N-acetyl-seryl-aspartyl-lysyl-proline (Ac-SDKP), a natural inhibitor of pluripotent hematopoietic stem cell proliferation, has been suggested as capable of promoting an angiogenic response. We studied whether Ac-SDKP stimulates endothelial cell proliferation, migration, and tube formation; enhances angiogenic response in the rat cornea after implantation of a tumor spheroid; and increases capil...
متن کاملIn vivo differentiation of N-acetyl aspartyl glutamate from N-acetyl aspartate at 3 Tesla.
A method is described that allows the in vivo differentiation of N-acetyl aspartate (NAA) from N-acetyl aspartyl glutamate (NAAG) by in vivo MR spectroscopy (MRS) at 3 Tesla (3T). The method, which is based on MEGA-point-resolved spectroscopy (PRESS) editing, selectively targets the aspartyl spin system of one species while deliberately removing the other species from the spectrum. This allows ...
متن کاملContext-dependent anticodon recognition by class I lysyl-tRNA synthetases.
Lysyl-tRNA synthesis is catalyzed by two unrelated families of aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases. In most bacteria and all eukarya, the known lysyl-tRNA synthetases (LysRSs) are subclass IIb-type aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases, whereas many archaea and a scattering of bacteria contain an unrelated class I-type LysRS. Examination of the recognition of partially modified tRNA(Lys) anticodon variants by a ba...
متن کاملReplacement of the Saccharomyces cerevisiae acetyl-CoA synthetases by alternative pathways for cytosolic acetyl-CoA synthesis.
Cytosolic acetyl-coenzyme A is a precursor for many biotechnologically relevant compounds produced by Saccharomyces cerevisiae. In this yeast, cytosolic acetyl-CoA synthesis and growth strictly depend on expression of either the Acs1 or Acs2 isoenzyme of acetyl-CoA synthetase (ACS). Since hydrolysis of ATP to AMP and pyrophosphate in the ACS reaction constrains maximum yields of acetyl-CoA-deri...
متن کاملPrevention of aortic fibrosis by N-acetyl-seryl-aspartyl-lysyl-proline in angiotensin II-induced hypertension.
Fibrosis is an important component of large conduit artery disease in hypertension. The endogenous tetrapeptide N-acetyl-seryl-aspartyl-lysyl-proline (Ac-SDKP) has anti-inflammatory and antifibrotic effects in the heart and kidney. However, it is not known whether Ac-SDKP has an anti-inflammatory and antifibrotic effect on conduit arteries such as the aorta. We hypothesize that in ANG II-induce...
