Pyridoxine (1-8 mmol/l) did not change significantly the cerebral oxygen nor the hypoxic or ischaemic degradation of phosphocreatine and ATP. Glyoxylic acid (1-8 mmol/l), an inhibitor of the citric acid cycle, depressed the electrically stimulated oxygen uptake of brain slices to a lesser extent
Piridoxilate is a conjugation product of pyridoxine and glyoxylic acid, which may be a physiological regulator of cell respiration. Effects of this substance on the oxidation-reduction state of the pyridine nucleotides in the heart were studied using the canine heart-lung preparation supported by a
Low oxygen environments are a hallmark of solid tumors, and transcription of many hypoxia-responsive genes needed for survival under these conditions is regulated by the transcription factor HIF-1 (hypoxia-inducible factor 1). Activation of HIF-1 requires binding of its α-subunit (HIF-1α) to the
The radiosensitizing effect of five glyoxal derivatives on the survival of TC-SV40 cells has been measured, under aerobic and hypoxic conditions. A toxicity study was previously performed in order to use nontoxic concentrations. The OER for the TC-SV40 cells was 2.74. None of the glyoxylic compounds
Short-term cell cultures were obtained from enzymatically dissociated carotid bodies from adult rabbits, and morphological and functional characterization of the cultured chemoreceptor cells were carried out. Under phase contrast, freshly isolated type I cells are round, bright, and 10-14 microns in
The morbidity of nephrolithiasis is 2-3 times higher in males than in females, suggesting that androgen plays a key role in nephrolithiasis. The death of renal tubular epithelial cells (TECs) is an important pathophysiological process contributing to the development of nephrolithiasis.
