demecolcine/necrosis

The cell cycle has been shown to regulate the biological effects of human tumor necrosis factor (TNF), but to what extent that regulation is due to the modulation of TNF receptors is not clear. In the present report we investigated the effect of the cell cycle on the expression of surface and

Tumor necrosis factor (TNF) is cytotoxic to certain transformed cells, whereas normal cells are resistant to its effects. The resistance of normal cells can often be overcome by treatment with inhibitors of transcription or translation such as actinomycin D or cycloheximide (CHI), suggesting that

Crude or dehydrated bulbs of autumn crocus (Colchicum autumnale L.) were fed to eleven calves. All the calves developed severe diarrhea and died or euthanized within 63 hr. At necropsy, the gastro-intestinal mucosa was edematous and hemorrhagic. Histologically, necrosis and degeneration with

The process of adipose differentiation uniquely endows fat cells to accrue triacylglycerols under conditions of nutrient energy surfeit and to release fatty acids during energy deprivation. The object of this investigation was to study influences on this process in perirenal preadipocytes, grown in

BACKGROUND Enteric glia protect the integrity of the gut, as loss of enteric glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) positive (+) glia leads to a haemorrhagic jejunoileitis. Crohn's disease (CD) and necrotising enterocolitis (NEC) show pathological changes in enteric glia. Therefore, factors
