glutamate dehydrogenase/hypoxia

Glutamate dehydrogenase (GDH) (EC 1.4.1.3) is a crucial enzyme involved in bridging two metabolic pathways, gating the use of glutamate for either amino acid metabolism, or carbohydrate metabolism. The present study investigated GDH from tail muscle of the freshwater crayfish Orconectes virilis

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are reported to be involved in renal hypoxia/reoxygenation (H/R) damage. To investigate this further, human kidney (HK‑2) cells were cultured, subjected to H/R and the function of miR‑30a‑5p and glutamate dehydrogenase 1 (GLUD1) was evaluated. The results showed that, miR‑30‑5p

Ethylene is an essential hormone in plants that is involved in low-oxygen and reoxygenation responses. As a key transcription factor in ethylene signaling, ETHYLENE INSENSITIVE3 (EIN3) activates targets that trigger various responses. However, most of these targets are still poorly characterized.

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

OBJECTIVE Mitochondrial dysfunction is a prominent feature of ischemia heart disease but the underlying mechanism of dynamics (fusion/fission) is still unclear. Here we investigated a novel function and underlying mechanism of Rg1 on an in vitro cardiomyocyte model of hypoxia/reoxygenation

Fructose-1,6-bisphosphate (FBP), an intermediate of glucose metabolism, is neuroprotective in brain hypoxia or ischemia. Because the mechanisms for this protection are not clear, we examined the effects of FBP on two important events in brain ischemia, i.e., loss of ATP and release of the excitatory

Microfluorometry was used to investigate distribution of hypoxia-induced release of glutamate. Mongolian gerbil hippocampal slice was perfused in a medium containing glutamate dehydrogenase and NAD+. Release of glutamate into extracellular space caused an increase in fluorescence due to the

In a recent study, the total tissue contents of glutamate (Glu), ammonium (NH+4), and 2-oxoglutarate (2-OG) were used to estimate changes in the mitochondrial redox state ([NAD+]/[NADH]) of contracting skeletal muscle with intact circulation [Am. J. Physiol. 253 (Cell Physiol. 22): C263-C268, 1987].

BACKGROUND Extracellular accumulation of the excitatory neurotransmitter L-glutamate during cerebral hypoxia or ischemia contributes to neuronal death. Anesthetics inhibit release of synaptic neurotransmitters but it is unknown if they alter net extrasynaptic glutamate release, which accounts for

A water culture experiment with controlled dissolved oxygen concentration was conducted to explore the effects of exogenous NO3- on the root function and enzyme activities related to nitrogen metabolism of cherry (Prunun cerasus x P. canescens) seedlings under hypoxia stress. Comparing with the

The effect of hypoxia and post-hypoxic recovery were studied in gastrocnemius muscle of young-adult and mature beagle dogs. Furthermore, the possible interference of pharmacological treatment with nicergoline was evaluated in these conditions. Muscular glycolytic fuels, intermediates and
