Influences of 5-hydroxytriptamine on sperm hyperactivation and in vitro fertility in rats
The Journal of Reproduction and DevelopmentThe neurotransmitter, 5-hydroxytriptamine (5-HT), is well known. Furthermore, it enhances the acrosome reaction, hyperactivation, and in vitro fertilization (IVF) success in hamsters and mice.

In Vitro Exposure to Glucose Alters the Expression of Phosphorylated Proteins in Platelets
Biomedicines, 2023 Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a pro-thrombotic state that can potentially cause serious cardiovascular complications. Platelet hyperactivation plays an important role in these pathological processes, however there is little or no information on the effect of

Serotonin-enhanced hyperactivation of hamster sperm [PDF]
REPRODUCTION, 2011 The effects of serotonin on reproductive function were examined using hamster spermatozoa. When serotonin at concentrations from 1 fmol/l to 1 μmol/l was added to modified Tyrode's albumin lactate pyruvate (mTALP) medium, hyperactivation was significantly enhanced. Agonists and antagonists of 5-hydroxytryptamine hydrochloride (5-HT) receptors (5-HT2and

Mesenchymal adenomatous polyposis coli plays critical and diverse roles in regulating lung development. [PDF]
, 2015 BackgroundAdenomatous polyposis coli (Apc) is a tumor suppressor that inhibits Wnt/Ctnnb1. Mutations of Apc will not only lead to familial adenomatous polyposis with associated epithelial lesions, but will also cause aggressive fibromatosis in ...

Hyperactivation of SREBP induces pannexin-1-dependent lytic cell death
Journal of Lipid ResearchSterol-regulatory element binding proteins (SREBPs) are a conserved transcription factor family governing lipid metabolism. When cellular cholesterol level is low, SREBP2 is transported from the endoplasmic reticulum to the Golgi apparatus where it ...
