Hypoxia-induced hepatocyte injury results not only from ATP depletion but also from reductive stress and oxygen activation. Thus the NADH/NAD+ ratio was markedly increased in isolated hepatocytes maintained under 95% N2/5% CO2 in Krebs-Henseleit buffer well before plasma membrane disruption
BACKGROUND
Chronic hypoxia can cause pulmonary hypertension and pulmonary heart disease with high mortality. The signal transduction pathway of protein kinase C (PKC) plays an important role in chronic pulmonary hypertension. So it is necessary to investigate the effect of PKC on voltage-gated
Production of xylitol from lignocellulosic biomass is of interest to modern biorefineries, because this biomass should be processed into a spectrum of chemicals (bio-based products) and not only energy. The isolation of new yeast strains capable of efficiently converting xylose into xylitol and
Animals vary tremendously in their capacities to survive anoxia, and the mechanisms responsible are poorly understood. Adult Drosophila melanogaster are rapidly paralyzed and survive up to 12 h of anoxia, whereas larvae vigorously attempt escape but then die if anoxia exceeds 2 h. Here we use
Suspensions of rat hepatocytes are resistant to hypoxia for at least 24 hr at 4 degrees C. After storage for 24 hr with xylitol, sorbitol, or glycerol, their subsequent capacity for glucogenesis from these substrates is increased. Even storage under N2/CO2 as the gas phase has little deleterious
Perfusion of livers from fasted rats with nitrogen-saturated buffer caused hepatocellular damage within 30 min. Lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) was released at maximal rates of approximately 300 U . g-1 . h-1 under these conditions, and virtually all cells in periportal and pericentral regions of the
