cellular and tissue activities highly depend on environmental ph. murine lung tissue, when cultured properly in-vitro, is a potent producer of hematopoietic growth factors. we have studied the effect of ph on the production of hematopoietic growth factors and protein synthesis by the murine lung in-vitro. various concentrations of nahc03 were used to adjust the ph of the culture medium under co...

Responses in variables of amino acid (AA) metabolism across peripheral tissues to feed intake were studied in six sheep (mean live weight 32 kg) prepared with arterio-venous catheters across the hindquarters. Four intakes (0.5, 1.0, 1.5 and 2.5 x maintenance energy) were offered over 2-week periods to each sheep in a Latin square design with two animals replicated. Animals were infused intraven...

synchronization of rumen available protein and energy is one of the conceptual methods to increase the efficiency of utilization of nutrients by the ruminants the concept of synchronization energy and protein was first by jhonson, implying that maximum microbial protein synthesis could be achieved by matching the rate of organic matter and protein degradation. synchronization of rumen available...

The rate of tryptophan transport in Neurospora is regulated by the intracellular pool of tryptophan. When cells were shifted from growth in minimal medium to tryptophan-containing medium for 10 min, there was a 50% reduction in the rate of tryptophan transport. Intracellular tryptophan pools derived from indole were equally effective in reducing the rate of transport as externally supplied tryp...

among the drug delivery and targeting (ddt) routes, lung alveolar epithelium has been given enormous attentions in terms of the delivery of a wide range of macromolecules such as gene- or protein-based nanopharmaceuticals. however, little is known about cellular modulation of lung transport characteristics by endogenous and/or exogenous agents. thus, in the current study, impact of dexamethason...

Aldosterone-stimulated Na+ transport is mediated by new protein synthesis, but the identification of specific aldosterone-induced proteins (AIPs) has proven difficult and the cellular function of such proteins is unknown. Using high resolution two-dimensional polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and autoradiography we have identified AIPs of similar isoelectric points (5.8 to 6.4) and molecular w...

High-affinity glutamate transport activity is induced by stress in NBL-1 cells. Exposure of cells to hyperosmotic medium led to an induction of the EAAC1 glutamate transporter, preceded by a large increase in EAAC1 mRNA levels. Culture of cells in amino acid-free medium also caused a protein synthesis-dependent increase in glutamate transport activity, but this was not accompanied by an increas...

conclusions these results show the usefulness of proteome analysis in successful identification of the common proteins between n. lactamica strains and nmb. this proteomics analysis is the starting point in the path of knowledge development about whole proteome profiles of n. lactamica strains. objectives the main aims of this study were to determine whole proteome profiles of n. lactamica stra...

Among the drug delivery and targeting (DDT) routes, lung alveolar epithelium has been given enormous attentions in terms of the delivery of a wide range of macromolecules such as gene- or protein-based nanopharmaceuticals. However, little is known about cellular modulation of lung transport characteristics by endogenous and/or exogenous agents. Thus, in the current study, impact of dexamethason...
