Aquaporin 2 expression increased by glucagon in normal rat inner medullary collecting ducts
(AMER PHYSIOLOGICAL SOC, 2009)
Yano Y, Cesar KR, Araujo M, Rodrigues Jr. AC, Andrade LC, Magaldi AJ. Aquaporin 2 expression increased by glucagon in normal rat inner medullary collecting ducts. Am J Physiol Renal Physiol 296: F54-F59, 2009. First published ...
TNF-alpha Promotes an Odontoblastic Phenotype in Dental Pulp Cells
(SAGE PUBLICATIONS INC, 2009)
Dental pulp cells can differentiate toward an odontoblastic phenotype to produce reparative dentin beneath caries lesions. However, the mechanisms involved in pulp cell differentiation under pro-inflammatory stimuli have ...
Effects of supplementation with free glutamine and the dipeptide alanyl-glutamine on parameters of muscle damage and inflammation in rats submitted to prolonged exercise
(JOHN WILEY & SONS LTD, 2010)
In this study, we investigated the effect of the supplementation with the dipeptide L-alanyl-L-glutamine (DIP) and a solution containing L-glutamine and L-alanine on plasma levels markers of muscle damage and levels of ...
TLR4/MYD88-dependent, LPS-induced synthesis of PGE(2) by macrophages or dendritic cells prevents anti-CD3-mediated CD95L upregulation in T cells
(NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2008)
Antigen-presenting cells (APCs) control T-cell responses by multiple mechanisms, including the expression of co-stimulatory molecules and the production of cytokines and other mediators that control T-cell proliferation, ...
Changes of glycogen content in liver, skeletal muscle, and heart from fasted rats
(JOHN WILEY & SONS LTD, 2009)
Glycogen content of white and red skeletal muscles, cardiac muscle, and liver was investigated in conditions where changes in plasma levels of non-esterified fatty acids (NEFA) occur. The experiments were performed in fed ...
Rod bipolar cells in the retina of the capuchin monkey (Cebus apella): Characterization and distribution
(CAMBRIDGE UNIV PRESS, 2009)
Rod bipolar cells in Cebus apella monkey retina were identified by an antibody against the alpha isoform of protein kinase C (PKC alpha). which has been shown to selectively identify rod bipolars in two other primates and ...
Morphine peripheral analgesia depends on activation of the PI3K gamma/AKT/nNOS/NO/K(ATP) signaling pathway
(NATL ACAD SCIENCES, 2010)
Morphine is one of the most prescribed and effective drugs used for the treatment of acute and chronic pain conditions. In addition to its central effects, morphine can also produce peripheral analgesia. However, the ...
Effect of low-level laser therapy (GaAs 904 nm) in skeletal muscle fatigue and biochemical markers of muscle damage in rats
(SPRINGER, 2010)
We wanted to test if pre-exercise muscle irradiation with 904 nm laser affects the development of fatigue, blood lactate levels and creatine kinase (CK) activity in a rat model with tetanic contractions. Thirty male Wistar ...
Low-level Laser Therapy Improves Skeletal Muscle Performance, Decreases Skeletal Muscle Damage and Modulates mRNA Expression of COX-1 and COX-2 in a Dose-dependent Manner
(WILEY-BLACKWELL, 2011)
We tested if modulation in mRNA expression of cyclooxygenase isoforms (COX-1 and COX-2) can be related to protective effects of phototherapy in skeletal muscle. Thirty male Wistar rats were divided into five groups receiving ...
Effect of short-term creatine supplementation on markers of skeletal muscle damage after strenuous contractile activity
(SPRINGER, 2010)
The protective effect of short-term creatine supplementation (CrS) upon markers of strenuous contractile activity-induced damage in human and rat skeletal muscles was investigated. Eight Ironman triathletes were randomized ...
