Allosteric regulation of oxygen delivery by RBCs may have significant effects on tumor growth. Indeed, angiogenesis, the formation of new blood vessels, is induced in growing tumors by low oxygen partial pressure. Hypoxia-inducible genes are switched on, among which are the VEGF gene and its
Heart failure is a consequence of progression hypoxia-dependent tissue damages. Therapeutic approaches to restore and/or protect the healthy cardiac tissue have largely failed and remain a major challenge of regenerative medicine. The myo-inositol trispyrophosphate (ITPP) is a modifier of
Hypoxia and dysfunctional tumor vessels represent a prominent feature of pancreatic cancer, being, at least in part, responsible for chemotherapy resistance and immune suppression in these tumors. We tested whether the increase of oxygen delivery induced in vivo by myo-inositol trispyrophosphate
Hypoxic transduction in the carotid body (CB) is regulated by several systems of second messengers, but the role of the phospholipase C system has not been studied. The aim of the present study was to characterize the turnover rate of inositol phosphates (InsPs) and phosphoinositides (PIs) and their
The hippocampus is injured in both hypoxia-ischemia (HI) and perinatal iron deficiency that are co-morbidities in infants of diabetic mothers and intrauterine growth restricted infants. We hypothesized that preexisting perinatal iron deficiency predisposes the hippocampus to greater injury when
The guinea pig is a frequently used animal model for human pregnancy complications, such as oxygen deprivation or hypoxia, which result in altered brain development. To investigate the impact of in utero chronic hypoxia on brain development, pregnant guinea pigs underwent either normoxic or hypoxic
Induced hypoxia stress on cervical cancer derived cells (HeLa cells) leads to significant changes in their membrane lipid profiles. The lipidome of HeLa cells was characterized by a joint approach wherein liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS) analysis was followed by high resolution NMR
BACKGROUND
To evaluate 1H Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy (1HMRS) in the diagnosis of hypoxia-ischemic encephalopathy (HIE) of full-term neonates correlated with Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI).
METHODS
Thirty-eight cases of full-term neonates diagnosed as HIE clinically were selected to perform
Previous studies have shown altered brain metabolism after cerebral hypoxia-ischemia, using magnetic resonance spectroscopy with echo times (TE) of 272 and 136 ms, based on peak-area or peak-height ratios. The present study examined the additional value of proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy with
The model of "chemical hypoxia" with KCN plus iodoacetic acid mimics the ATP depletion and reductive stress of hypoxia. Here, we examined the effects of chemical hypoxia on cytosolic free Na+ and Ca2+ in single cultured rat hepatocytes by multiparameter digitized video microscopy and ratio imaging
Nerve conduction abnormalities in peripheral nerves from diabetic patients may be early indicators for the future development of symptomatic neuropathy. In this study, three weeks of experimental diabetes in the rat caused a significant decrease in motor nerve conduction velocity measured in vivo
Various 2,5- and 1,4-substituted and unsubstituted myo-inositol tetrakisphosphates and bispyrophosphates were prepared following a general synthetic pathway. All final compounds were tested for their capability to induce oxygen release from human hemoglobin. Most of these proved to be efficient
Myo-inositol trispyrophosphate (ITPP) is a novel allosteric effector of haemoglobin with high permeation selectivity across the red blood cell plasma membrane. Due to its potential to reduce the oxygen affinity of haemoglobin, ITPP application results in an enhanced oxygen release in hypoxic
The purpose of the study was to investigate the sequence of processes occurring during and after hypoxia-induced acidemia. We used proton nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, which provides an overview of metabolites in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), reflecting neuronal metabolism and damage. The
BACKGROUND
The wood frog, Rana sylvatica, tolerates freezing as a means of winter survival. Freezing is considered to be an ischemic/anoxic event in which oxygen delivery is significantly impaired. In addition, cellular dehydration occurs during freezing because water is lost to extracellular
