The effect of four weeks of resistance training and date pollen extract on gene expression of some of tight junction proteins of the spinal-blood barrier in male rats
Background & Aim: Changes in the expression of blood-spinal barrier proteins play an important role in the move and development of neuro-inflammatory responses. This study investigated the effect of four weeks of resistance training and date pollen extract on the expression of claudin-5 and connexin-43 proteins in male rats. Methods: 30 male Wistar rats randomly divided into 6 groups: Control;...
متن کاملDifferential effects of hydrocortisone and TNFalpha on tight junction proteins in an in vitro model of the human blood-brain barrier.
Homeostasis of the central nervous system (CNS) microenvironment is maintained by the blood-brain barrier (BBB) which regulates the transport of molecules from blood into brain and back. Many disorders change the functionality and integrity of the BBB. Glucocorticoids are being used sucessfully in the treatment of some disorders while their effects on others are questionable. In addition, confl...
متن کاملEndothelial Cell Barrier Impairment Induced by Glioblastomas and Transforming Growth Factor A2 Involves Matrix Metalloproteinases and Tight Junction Proteins
Gliomas, particularly glioblastoma multiforme, perturb the bloodbrain barrier and cause brain edema that contributes to morbidity and mortality. The mechanisms underlying this vasogenic edema are poorly understood. We examined the effects of cocultured primary cultured human glioblastoma cells and glioma-derived growth factors on the endothelial cell tight junction proteins claudin 1, claudin 5...
متن کاملP27: KCNK2 and Adhesion Molecules in an in-Vitro Blood Brain Barrier Model
Two-pore domain potassium channels, like KCNK2, are known to play an important role in inflammatory diseases such as multiple sclerosis (MS). Upregulation of cellular adhesion molecules in mouse brain microvascular endothelial cells (MBMECs) of Kcnk2-/- mice resulted in elevated leukocyte trafficking into the central nervous system under inflammatory conditions. The current project aims to gain...
متن کاملEnterotoxigenic Escherichia coli infection induces tight junction proteins expression in mice
Enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli (ETEC) causes diarrhea in travelers, young children and piglets, but the precise pathogenesis of ETEC induced diarrhea is not fully known. Recent investigations have shown that tight junction (TJ) proteins and aquaporin 3 (AQP 3) are contributing factors in bacterial diarrhea. In this study, using immunoblotting and immunohistochemistry analyses, we found that E...
