Hypoxia Inducible Factor 3 Alpha Subunit (HIF3A) DNA has been demonstrated to be associated with obesity in the methylation level, and it also has a Body Mass Index (BMI)-independent association with plasma alanine aminotransferase (ALT). However, the relation among obesity, plasma ALT, HIF3A
Alanine aminotransferase (AlaAT) catalyses the reversible transfer of an amino group from glutamate to pyruvate to form 2-oxoglutarate and alanine. The regulation of AlaAT in several plant species has been studied in response to low-oxygen stress, light and nitrogen application. In this study,
In the context of climatic change, more heavy precipitation and more frequent flooding and waterlogging events threaten the productivity of arable farmland. Furthermore, crops were not selected to cope with flooding- and waterlogging-induced oxygen limitation. In general, low oxygen stress, unlike
The role of nitrogen metabolism in the survival of prolonged periods of waterlogging was investigated in highly flood-tolerant, nodulated Lotus japonicus plants. Alanine production revealed to be a critical hypoxic pathway. Alanine is the only amino acid whose biosynthesis is not inhibited by
Wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) seedlings contain four alanine aminotransferase (AlaAT) homologues. Two of them encode AlaAT enzymes, whereas two homologues act as glumate:glyoxylate aminotransferase (GGAT). To address the function of the distinct AlaAT homologues a comparative examination of the
Idiosyncrasy-like liver injury occurs in rats cotreated with nonhepatotoxic doses of ranitidine (RAN) and bacterial lipopolysaccharide (LPS). Hepatocellular oncotic necrosis is accompanied by neutrophil (PMN) accumulation and fibrin deposition in LPS/RAN-treated rats, but the contribution of PMNs to
A 1.75 kb cDNA containing the entire coding sequence of the hypoxically inducible alanine aminotransferase (AlaAT) from barley roots was isolated and sequenced. This clone has an open reading frame of 1446 bp, and a deduced amino acid sequence of 482 residues, giving an estimated protein molecular
Halothane hepatotoxicity was observed after exposing hyperthyroid rats to 0.625% halothane for 4 hr under hypoxic conditions (10% O2). In this model, increases in serum enzyme activities of the alanine aminotransferase (GPT) and the sorbitol dehydrogenase (SDH) were evident immediately following
The present study aims to clarify the protective effect of supplementation with some antioxidants, such as idebenone (200 mg/kg, ip), melatonin (10 mg/kg, ip) and arginine (200 mg/kg, ip) and their combination, on liver function (T. protein, albumin, alanine aminotransferase, aspartate
Hypoxia training (HT) can reduce body weight and improve fatty liver. However, the mechanism is not clear. A previous study indicated that HT-induced weight loss might be associated with the endocannabinoid system (ECS), which has also been reported recently to be involved in the persistent lipid
There is growing interest in using hypothermia to prevent hypoxic damage in clinical and experimental models, although the mechanisms regulated by hypothermia are still unclear. As reactive oxygen and nitrogen species are the main factors causing cellular damage, our objective was to study the scope
Alanine transport and the role of alanine amino-transferase in the synthesis and consumption of glutamate were investigated in the preparation of rat brain synaptosomes. Alanine was accumulated rapidly via both the high- and low-affinity uptake systems. The high-affinity transport was dependent on
OBJECTIVE
To determine whether ischemia-reperfusion and hypoxia-reoxygenation cause cellular damages and stress responses in an isolated perfused rat liver model. To determine whether the increased synthesis of stress protein messenger RNA reflects cellular injury.
METHODS
Prospective, controlled
Ischemia-reperfusion injury due to hypoxia/reoxygenation (H/R) is one of the main causes of liver damage during liver surgery. Donor interleukin-6 (IL-6) rs1800796 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) affect the metabolism of tacrolimus following liver transplantation-related hepatic H/R. This
