We have reported that dibutyryl cAMP (dbcAMP), an activator of cAMP-dependent protein kinase (PKA), potentiated the effects of 1alpha,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3(1,25-(OH)2D3)-induced 24-hydroxylation activity in HL-60 cells by increasing 1,25-(OH)2D3 receptor (VDR). The present study demonstrated that 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA), a potent phorbol ester, also potentiated the effect of...
We studied the influence of nitric oxide (NO) endogenously produced by adipocytes in lipolysis regulation. Diphenyliodonium (DPI), a nitric oxide synthase (NOS) inhibitor, was found to completely suppress NO synthesis in intact adipocytes and was thus used in lipolysis experiments. DPI was found to decrease both basal and dibutyryl cAMP (DBcAMP)-stimulated lipolysis. Inhibition of DBcAMP-stimul...
1. We have tested the hypothesis that insulin might decrease the levels of cyclic AMP (CAMP) in rat epididymal adipose tissue by stimulating the activity of a CAMP phosphodiesterase. 2. Dibutyryl cyclic AMP (DBcAMP) was comparable to CAMP as a substrate for CAMP phosphodiesterase of adipose tissue; the hydrolysis of both cyclic nucleotides was inhibited by theophylline. 3. DBcAMP, but not CAMP,...
This study used an isolated right atrial preparation, cross-perfused with arterial blood from a support dog. We investigated the effects of dibutyryl cyclic AMP (DBcAMP) on heart rate and arterial blood pressure of the support dog and on the sinus rate and atrial contractile force of the isolated perfused atrium. DBcAMP was injected into the external jugular vein of the support dog or into the ...
The ability of N(6), O(2)'-dibutyryl cyclic AMP (DBcAMP) to regulate a number of metabolic events in four lines of cultured rat hepatomas has been examined. Although dexamethasone induces tyrosine transaminase in all four lines, DBcAMP induces this enzyme normally only in H35 cells. A slight increase in transaminase activity was seen with MH(1)C(1) cells and HTC cells, but no effect was detecta...
The factor(s) produced by porcine cumulus cells (cumulus cell factor (s): CCF) was described as quantitatively inhibiting the maturation of oocytes in vitro (Petr et al, 1989). When 1, 10, 20 or 40 cumulus oocyte complexes (COCs) were cultured in a droplet of medium (vol 10 microliters), germinal vesicle breakdown (GVBD) was observed in 85, 78, 57 or 19% of the oocytes, respectively. GVBD was o...
BACKGROUND Improvement of baboon sperm capacitation is necessary for achieving high in vitro fertilization (IVF) rates in baboons. In this study, we evaluated separate and combined effects of caffeine and dbcAMP on baboon sperm capacitation. METHODS Sixteen male baboons (n = 16) were electroejaculated. Each sperm sample was divided into two aliquots: one for chemical activation and the other ...
Effect of cyclodextrin-encapsulated beta-carotene on progesterone production by bovine luteal cells.
Experiments were conducted to examine the effect of cyclodextrin-encapsulated beta-carotene on basal or cholesterol (cyclodextrin-encapsulated), LH and dibutyryl cyclic AMP (dbcAMP)-stimulated progesterone production by bovine corpus luteum cells isolated from mid-luteal heifer ovaries by collagenase digestion. Cells were cultured with serum-free DMEM/Ham's F12 medium in serum pre-treated plast...
We have studied factors controlling message levels for the neuronal growth- and plasticity-associated protein, GAP-43. Following exposure of PC12 cells to various effectors, cytoplasmic RNA was isolated and analyzed by Northern transfer and autoradiography using a GAP-43 cDNA probe. Induction by NGF is apparent after 3 hr exposure and reaches maximal levels at 24 hr. Beyond 24 hr, levels remain...
GLT-1, GLAST, and EAAC1 are high-affinity, Na(+)-dependent glutamate transporters identified in rat forebrain. The expression of these transporter subtypes was characterized in three preparations: undifferentiated rat cortical astrocyte cultures, astrocytes cocultured with cortical neurons, and astrocyte cultures differentiated with dibutyryl cyclic AMP (dBcAMP). The undifferentiated astrocyte ...
