The effects of hypoxia and a metabolic inhibitor, sodium cyanide (NaCN), on the spontaneous action potential and membrane current systems were studied in small preparations (0.2 x 0.2 x 0.1 mm) of rabbit atrioventricular node. When the PO2 of the superfusate was lowered from 500 to less than 20 mm
The rate of unidirectional uptake, v, of L-[4,5-3H]leucine was studied in 17 isolated dog brains by means of an indicator-dilution technique using 22Na as the intravascular reference. The arterial leucine concentration was varied in increments by adding unlabeled leucine to the blood and v was
Establishing the severity of hypoxic insult during the delivery of a neonate is key step in the determining the type of therapy administered. While successful therapy is present, current methods for assessing hypoxic injuries in the neonate are limited. Urine Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR)
Solid tumours have oxygen gradients and areas of near and almost total anoxia. Hypoxia reduces sensitivity to 5-fluorouracil (5-FU)-chemotherapy for colorectal cancer (CRC). MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are hypoxia sensors and were altered consistently in six CRC cell lines (colon cancer: DLD-1, HCT116 and
Hypoxia represents a major physiological challenge for prawns and is a problem in aquaculture. Therefore, an understanding of the metabolic response mechanism of economically important prawn species to hypoxia and re-oxygenation is essential. However, little is known about the intrinsic mechanisms
BACKGROUND
Earlier in vitro studies show that irradiation with an ultra-low dose-rate of 15 mGy/h delivered with [3H]-valine leads to loss of clonogenicity in hypoxic T-47D cells. Here, the aim was to determine if [3H]-valine could be used to deliver low dose-rate irradiation in a colorectal cancer
The isolated dog brain preparation was used to investigate the dynamics of cerebral amino acid metabolism during perfusion with anoxic blood (PO2 less than 10 mmHg). Significant uptake of histidine and lysine, as determined by arteriovenous (A-V) differences in whole blood samples, was observed
The effect of acute hypoxic hypoxia on the profile of plasma amino acids in rats was studied and compared to that resulting from acute liver injury induced by giving carbon tetrachloride. In hypoxic rats exposed to 45% air in N(2) for 5 h, the concentrations of branched chain amino acids, including
Three human prolyl 4-hydroxylases (P4Hs) regulate the hypoxia-inducible transcription factors (HIFs) by hydroxylating a Leu-Xaa-Xaa-Leu-Ala-Pro motif. We report here that the two leucines in the Leu-Glu-Met-Leu-Ala-Pro core motif of a 20-residue peptide corresponding to the sequence around Pro(564)
Islet transplantation is one of many therapeutic approaches for the treatment of diabetes. During transplant procedures, the isolated islets are subjected to hypoxic conditions, and undergo the apoptotic process. Curcumin has a cytoprotective effect, and may therefore be useful for the protection of
OBJECTIVE
To investigate in detail the earlier observed combined effect of low dose-rate β-irradiation delivered at a dose-rate of 15 mGy/h and continued intermittent hypoxia that leads to extensive cell death after approximately 3-6 weeks.
METHODS
Continuous low dose-rate β-irradiation at a dose
Severe birth asphyxia leads to a transient organic aciduria and increased hypoxanthine excretion. To investigate its origin and timing, we analyzed urine from 12 late gestation fetal sheep in utero subjected to moderately severe isocapnic hypoxia for 1 h. In six fetuses the carotid sinus nerves were
The hypoxia-inducible factor alpha subunits 1 and 2 (HIF-1alpha and HIF-2alpha) are subjected to oxygen-dependent asparaginyl hydroxylation, a modification that represses the carboxyl-terminal transactivation domain (CAD) at normoxia by preventing recruitment of the p300/cAMP-response
A metabolomics approach using (1)H NMR and GC-MS profiling of primary metabolites and quantification of adenine nucleotides with luciferin bioluminescence was employed to investigate the spatial changes of metabolism in melon fruit. Direct (1)H NMR profiling of juice collected from different
The purpose of the study was to investigate the sequence of processes occurring during and after hypoxia-induced acidemia. We used proton nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, which provides an overview of metabolites in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), reflecting neuronal metabolism and damage. The
