Intracellular pH sensing is altered by plasma membrane PIP aquaporin co-expression
(Springer, 2010-09)
The plant plasma membrane barrier can express aquaporins (PIP1 and PIP2) that show two intriguing aspects: (1) the potential of modulating whole membrane water permeability by co-expression of both types, which have recently ...
Enrichment of canalicular membrane with cholesterol and sphingomyelin prevents bile salt-induced hepatic damage
(AMER SOC BIOCHEMISTRY MOLECULAR BIOLOGY INC, 1999)
These studies were undertaken to characterize the role of plasma membrane cholesterol in canalicular secretory functions and hepatocyte integrity against intravenous taurocholate administration. Cholesterol and sphingomyelin ...
Bovine sperm cells viability during incubation with or without exogenous DNA
(CAMBRIDGE UNIV PRESS, 2009)
The aim of this study was to assess the effect of exogenous DNA and incubation time on the viability of bovine sperm. Sperm were incubated at a concentration of 5 x 10(6)/ml with or without plasmid pEYFP-NUC. Fluorescent ...
A proton pumping pyrophosphatase in the Golgi apparatus and plasma membrane vesicles of Trypanosoma cruzi
(Molecular & Biochemical Parasitology, 2017)
Proliferation and differentiation of stem cells in contact with eluate from fibrin-rich plasma membrane
(Sociedade Brasileira de Ortopedia e Traumatologia, 2018)
Prunin- and hesperetin glucoside-alkyl (C4-C18) esters interaction with Jurkat cells plasma membrane: Consequences on membrane physical properties and antioxidant capacity
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2013-05)
Prunin (P)- and hesperetin glucoside (HG)-alkyl esters are lipid-soluble compounds with antimicrobial and antioxidant capacities in vitro. The effects of P- and HG-alkyl (C4-C18) esters (0.1-100μM) on human leukemia T ...
Equine seminal plasma and sperm membrane: Functional proteomic assessment
(2020-10-15)
During ejaculation, a large amount of seminal plasma proteins interact with the sperm membrane, leading to a series of biochemical and structural changes implicated in sperm function and gamete interaction. However, the ...
Integrity of the plasma membrane, the acrosomal membrane, and the mitochondrial membrane potential of sperm in Nelore bulls from puberty to sexual maturity
(2016-01-01)
This study evaluated the plasma membrane integrity, acrosomal membrane integrity, and mitochondrial membrane potential of Nelore bull sperm from early puberty to early sexual maturity and their associations with sperm ...
A note of caution: gramicidin affects signaling pathways independently of its effects on plasma membrane conductance
(Hindawi, 2021)
Gramicidin is a thoroughly studied cation ionophore widely used to experimentally manipulate the plasma membrane potential (PMP). In addition, it has been established that the drug, due to its hydrophobic nature, is capable ...
