A catalase-magnetic switch for cell proliferation
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2014-03)
The advance of novel biotechnology requires the development of versatile control systems for cell behavior. Towards the vision of cell growth control, we report a magnetic switching in cell proliferation by a catalase-na ...
AQP2-induced acceleration of renal cell proliferation involves the activation of a regulatory volume increase mechanism dependent on NHE2
(Wiley-liss, Div John Wiley & Sons Inc, 2016-05)
We have previously shown in renal cells that expression of the water channel Aquaporin 2 (AQP2) increases the rate of cell proliferation by shortening the transit time through the S and G2/M phases of the cell cycle. This ...
Involvement of hydrogen peroxide in histamine-induced modulation of WM35 human malignant melanoma cell proliferation
(Elsevier Science Inc, 2009-06)
Histamine is a recognized growth factor in melanoma, and exogenous histamine produces a dual effect on proliferation. We have previously reported that histamine at micromolar concentrations reduces the proliferation of ...
EDA-containing fibronectin increases proliferation of embryonic stem cells
(Public Library of Science, 2013-11)
Embryonic stem cells (ESC) need a set of specific factors to be propagated. They can also grow in conditioned medium (CM) derived from a bovine granulosa cell line BGC (BGC-CM), a medium that not only preserves their main ...
Aquaporin 2-increased renal cell proliferation is associated with cell volume regulation
(Wiley-liss, Div John Wiley & Sons Inc, 2012-12)
We have previously demonstrated that in renal cortical collecting duct cells (RCCD1) the expression of the water channel Aquaporin 2 (AQP2) raises the rate of cell proliferation. In this study, we investigated the mechanisms ...
Morphogenetic and histogenetic roles of the temporal-spatial organization of cell proliferation in the vertebrate corticogenesis as revealed by inter-specific analyses of the optic tectum cortex development
(Frontiers Research Foundation, 2016-03)
The central nervous system areas displaying the highest structural and functional complexity correspond to the so called cortices, i.e. concentric alternating neuronal and fibrous layers. Corticogenesis, i.e. the development ...
HIF involvement in the regulation of rat Sertoli cell proliferation by FSH
(Academic Press Inc Elsevier Science, 2018-08)
The final number of Sertoli cells reached during the proliferative periods determines sperm production capacity in adulthood. It is well known that FSH increases the rate of proliferation of Sertoli cells; however, little ...
Metformin counteracts the effects of FSH on rat Sertoli cell proliferation
(BioScientifica, 2018-05)
Metformin (MET) is one of the most widely used anti-hyperglycemic agents for treating patients with type 2 diabetes and it has started to be used in pediatric population at ages when Sertoli cells are still proliferating. ...
Effect of lead on proliferation, oxidative stress and genotoxic damage of 3T3-L1 fibroblasts
(Oxford University Press, 2020-04)
Lead (Pb) is an environmental and industrial contaminant that still represents a public health problem. In this paper, we investigated the effect of Pb on proliferation, lipid peroxidation and the number of micronucleated ...
