osteosarcoma/triacylglycerol

It has been demonstrated that the activator protein related transcription factor Finkel-Biskis-Jinkins murine osteosarcoma B (GosB) is involved in preadipocyte differentiation and triacylglycerol synthesis. However, the role of GosB in regulating the synthesis of milk fatty acid in mouse mammary

The effect of recombinant human tumour necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) on synthesis, activity and secretion of lipoprotein lipase (LPL) was examined using a human osteosarcoma cell line, osteosarcoma Takase (OST). Treatment of OST cells with TNF-alpha decreased LPL synthesis, resulting in a

This study compares the metabolism of [14C]-arachidonic acid between PGE2 synthesizing (ROS 17/2.8) and nonsynthesizing (ROS 25/1) osteosarcoma cell lines. In both cell lines: (a) 90% of [14C]-arachidonic acid was taken up at 24 h. (b) More than 90% of the label was associated with phospholipids.

The present study aims to focus on the bioprospecting of marine macroalgae of Turbinaria species, plenteous biomass of the world ocean. Three types of solvents, i.e., H2 O, MeOH/H2 O (80:20, v/v) and hexane/i-PrOH (50:50, v/v), were used for extraction. Both the biological activity and the pattern

Cyclandelate (trimethylcyclohexanyl mandelate) inhibited cholesterol esterification in a transformed mouse macrophage cell line (J774) with a concentration of approximately 20 microM being required for half-maximal inhibition. The intact drug was required for its inhibitory action since neither of
