Intrauterine hypoxia (IUH) is a common intrauterine dysplasia that can cause programming of the offspring cardiovascular system. In this study, we hypothesized that placental treatment with spermidine (SPD) can prevent heart injury in neonatal offspring exposed to IUH. Pregnant rats were exposed to
Hypoxia-inducible factor-1 (HIF-1) is a master regulator of oxygen homeostasis that controls the expression of genes encoding proteins that play key roles in angiogenesis, erythropoiesis, and glucose/energy metabolism. The stability of the HIF-1alpha subunit is regulated by ubiquitination and
With water culture, this paper studied the effects of exogenous spermidine (Spd) on the net photosynthetic rate (Pn), intercellular CO2 concentrations (Ci), stomatal conductance (Gs), transpiration rate (Tr), apparent quantum yield (phi c), and carboxylation efficiency (CE) of cucumber seedlings
Hypoxia-inducible factor 1 (HIF-1) is a heterodimeric transcription factor that functions as a master regulator of oxygen homeostasis. The HIF-1alpha subunit is subjected to O(2)-dependent prolyl hydroxylation leading to ubiquitination by the von Hippel-Lindau protein (VHL)-Elongin C
Intrauterine hypoxia (IUH) affects the growth and development of offspring. It remains unclear that how long the impact of IUH on cognitive function lasts and whether sexual differences exist. Spermidine (SPD) has shown to improve cognition, but its effect on the cognitive function of IUH offspring
A four-step synthesis of (R,S)-N(4)-[3-(2-nitro-1-imidazolyl)-2-hydroxypropyl]-spermidine trihydrochloride (4) is described and the utilization of the polyamine active transport system for the uptake of this compound in cells is demonstrated. Thus, V79 cells pretreated with an inhibitor of

1 Intravenous injection of rabbits with the polyamines spermine (10-30 mg/kg) and spermidine (50-90 mg/kg) produced hyperglycaemia.2 Given by intraventricular injection, spermine and spermidine gave rise to hyperglycaemia in doses 250-500 times smaller than those effective intravenously.3
The cellular responses to hypoxia are poorly understood. To test the hypothesis that ornithine decarboxylase (ODC; L-ornithine carboxy-lyase; EC 4.1.1.17) activity and polyamine concentrations change in response to acute hypoxia, we performed the following studies. Pregnant Sprague-Dawley rats
Spermidine/spermine N(1)-acetyltransferase 1 (Ssat1) is a key enzyme in the polyamine interconversion pathway, which maintains polyamine homeostasis. In addition, mammalian Ssat1 is also involved in many physiological and pathological events such as hypoxia, cell migration, and carcinogenesis. Using
Pulmonary vascular remodeling is a significant pathological feature of hypoxia-induced pulmonary hypertension (HPH), while pulmonary artery smooth muscle cell (PASMC) proliferation plays a leading role in pulmonary vascular remodeling. Spermine (Sp), a polyamine, plays a critical role in periodic
We investigated the functional characteristics of the NMDA receptor that modulates hypoxia/hypoglycaemia-induced striatal dopamine release. Dopamine release was detected by fast cyclic voltammetry in rat neostriatal slices. Four variables were measured: T(on) -- time from initiation of
The polyamines putrescine (PUT), spermidine (SPD), and spermine (SPM) are a family of low molecular weight organic cations that play essential intracellular regulatory roles in cell growth and differentiation. Consistent with this important function, increases in cellular polyamine contents are
Taking melon cultivar 'Xiyu No. 1 ' as test material, a hydroponic experiment was conducted to investigate the effects of exogenous gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) on the seedlings polyamine metabolism under hypoxia stress. Compared with the control in normoxic treatment, the seedlings under hypoxia
Cucumber (Cucumis sativus L.) plants were subjected to hypoxic stress with or without a pretreatment of putrescine (Put) to investigate whether nitrate reduction is involved in the enhancement effects of Put on tolerance to root-zone hypoxia. Both hypoxic stress and exogenous Put application
