Mast Cell-Nerve Interactions.
Mutual associations between nerves and mast cells have been observed in normal conditions and in pathological ones such as human irritable bowel syndrome, atopic dermatitis, interstitial cystitis, and more. Here we review the recent literature in this field, putting emphasis on the enteric, skin, and urinary systems, and the pathophysiological implications of this interaction in them.
متن کاملInduction of Bone Marrow Stromal Cells into Cholinergic-Like Cells by Nerve Growth Factor
Background: Bone marrow stromal cells (BMSC) are used as a source for cell therapy in different model for neurological disorder such as stroke and spinal cord injury. However, the transdifferentiation of BMSC into cholinergic phenotype requires more investigation. Methods: BMSC were isolated from adult rats, pre-induced with β-mercaptoethanol (BME) and followed by nerve growth factor (NGF) indu...
متن کاملNerve growth factor prevents apoptosis of rat peritoneal mast cells through the trk proto-oncogene receptor.
We investigated the inhibitory activity of nerve growth factor (NGF) on apoptosis of rat peritoneal mast cells (PMCs) and compared it with that of recombinant stem cell factor (rSCF), which is a mast cell growth factor. When PMCs were incubated up to 72 hours in the presence of control medium, internucleosomal fragmentation of DNA indicating apoptosis was detected by agarose gel electrophoresis...
متن کاملCo-expression of recombinant human nerve growth factor with trigger factor chaperone in E. coli
Nerve growth factor (NGF) is a neurotrophic factor that is functional in the survival, maintenance and differentiation of nervous system cells. This protein has three subunits, of which the beta subunit has the main activity. Its structure consists of a cysteine knot motif made up of beta strands linked by disulfide bonds. It can be used as a therapeutic agent in the treatment of many diseases....
متن کاملNerve growth factor in human semen: Effect of nerve growth factor on the normozoospermic men during cryopreservation process
Objective(s):Althoughroutinely applied in assisted reproductive technology, human sperm cryopreservation is not a completely successful procedure. Adverse effects of cryopreservation on the fertilization capacity, motility, morphology, and viability of spermatozoa have been proven; cryopreservation has also shown a role in sperm DNA fragmentation and infertility. The post-thaw survival of sperm...
