Isolated ventral and dorsal rat spinal roots incubated in normal (2.5 mM) or high glucose (25 mM) concentrations or in high concentrations of other hexoses were exposed transiently to hypoxia (30 min) in a solution of low buffering power. Compound nerve action potentials, extracellular direct
Elevated growth in breast cancer (BC) activates hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF1α) and downstream, facilitative glucose transporter 1 (GLUT1), which can be visualized with 2-deoxy-2-[18F]fluoro-d-glucose ([18F]FDG). GLUT5 (fructose) and GLUT2 (glucose/fructose) might provide alternative targets for BC
The effects of calcium antagonists nimodipine, nicardipine and flunarizine on lactate production and specific activities of some enzymes regulating glycolytic flux have been evaluated in synaptosomes isolated from rat whole brain and submitted to in vitro chemical hypoxia induced by rotenone, an
An increase in the production rate of reduced pyridine nucleotides is currently considered as a coupling factor between metabolic and distal events in the process of glucose-stimulated insulin release. The possible participation in such a coupling of thiol: disulfide interchanges was investigated in
The effect of hyperoxia on lactate production and release and the mitochondrial NAD+-to-NADH ratio was studied in the in situ canine gastrocnemius to determine whether elevated PO2 altered metabolic regulation. Dogs breathed either air (21% O2) [arterial O2 partial pressure (PaO2) 90 mmHg; n = 8] or
1. The effect of various monosaccharides on the potential difference across the intestine of the invertebrate, Cryptochiton stelleri, was studied using an everted sac technique.2. D-Glucose, when present in the mucosal solution, increased the transmural potential across the anterior intestine but
1. The whole cell variant of the patch clamp technique was used to record high voltage-activated Ca2+ currents and Ca(2+)-activated Cl- tail currents from cultured neonatal rat dorsal root ganglion neurones. The aim of the project was to use these currents as physiological indices of intracellular
