malate/hypoxia

Hypoxia and anesthesia inhibited penetration of malate and citrate into the brain mitochondria by 60% and 40%, respectively. Anesthetized animals exposed to low oxygen tension showed similar changes as those subjected to hypoxia without anesthesia. Recovery from anesthesia was rapid and the rates of

Lactate (LDH) and malate dehydrogenase (MDH) of white skeletal muscle of fishes acclimated to 20, 25 and 30 degrees C and thereafter submitted to hypoxia were studied in different substrate concentrations. Significant differences for LDH and MDH of white muscle enzyme activities are described here

A structure-activity relationship study of hypoxia inducible factor-1α inhibitor 3-aminobenzoic acid-based chemical probes, which were previously identified to bind to mitochondrial malate dehydrogenase 2, was performed to provide a better understanding of the pharmacological effects of LW6 and its

NAD-dependent malate dehydrogenase (1.1.1.37) activity was markedly decreased under hypoxia in rat brain and liver mitochondria and cytoplasm; most significant decrease was observed in brain cortex mitochondria. NADP-dependent malate dehydrogenase (1.1.1.40) activity was also reduced under these

In muscle tissue of lamellibranch molluscs and crustaceans (cf. Table for the species studied), high levels of malate dehydrogenase and low ones of lactade dehydrogenase were detected. There is a direct relationship between the value of MDH/LDH ratio and the capacity of organisms to withstand

The subcellular distribution of adenine nucleotides, phosphocreatine and intermediates of the malate-aspartate cycle was investigated in adult rat heart myocytes under normoxia and anoxia. Cytosolic and mitochondrial concentrations of metabolites were determined by a fractionation method using

We previously reported that hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF)-1 inhibitor LW6, an aryloxyacetylamino benzoic acid derivative, inhibits malate dehydrogenase 2 (MDH2) activity during the mitochondrial tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle. In this study, we present a novel MDH2 inhibitor compound 7 containing

The concentrations of inorganic and organic ions and osmolality in the blood of the medicinal leech, Hirudo medicinalis, were determined during normoxia and hypercapnic and hypocapnic hypoxia. In normoxic animals, the blood sodium concentration was 124.5 +/- 4.2 mmol/l and the total cation

The effect of anaerobic metabolism on the osmotic and ionic regulation of the extracellular fluid was examined. Larvae of three species, characterized by different hypoxia tolerance, were studied: Chaoborus crystallinus, Culex pipiens and Chironomus gr. plumosus. The use of the capillary

Treatment after hypoxia-ischemia (HI) in immature rats with the N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor (NMDAR) antagonist dizocilpine maleate (MK-801) reduces areas with high glucose utilization and reduces brain damage. The object was to study the metabolic effects of MK-801 treatment after HI.

Syncytiotrophoblast formation is affected by a number of pathological conditions and suppressed syncytiotrophoblast formation due to hypoxia may play a role in the pathogenesis of preeclampsia. However, the molecular basis of hypoxia-inhibited trophoblast syncytialization is poorly understood. To

Suaeda maritima is a halophyte commonly found on coastal wetlands in the intertidal zone. Due to its habitat S. maritima has evolved tolerance to high salt concentrations and hypoxic conditions in the soil caused by periodic flooding. In the present work, the adaptive mechanisms of S. maritima to
