Ouabain Effects on Human Anaplastic Thyroid Carcinoma 8505C Cells
Anaplastic thyroid carcinoma (ATC) is a rare, but aggressive, carcinoma derived from follicular cells. While conventional treatments may improve patients’ survival, the lethality remains high.

Antiapoptotic effect of ouabain on human umbilical vein endothelial cells
The present study investigates the effect of ouabain on caspase-3 activation in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVEC). Ouabain (EC(50) 20 nM) reduced caspase-3 activity in HUVEC treated for 24h in a medium deprived of fibroblast growth factor ...

Novel Receptors for Ouabain: Studies in Adrenocortical Cells and Membranes
Sodium-potassium pumps (Na pumps) are the only known plasma membrane receptors for cardiac glycosides. However, adrenocortical cells secrete an endogenous ouabain via an unknown mechanism that is subject to feedback inhibition via the cell ...

Ouabain modulates ciliogenesis in epithelial cells
The exchange of substances between higher organisms and the environment occurs across transporting epithelia whose basic features are tight junctions (TJs) that seal the intercellular space, and polarity, which enables cells to transport ...

Mechanisms of ouabain-induced arterial muscle contraction
Ouabain caused dose-related contractions in helically cut strips of cerebral, mesenteric, renal, and femoral arteries isolated from dogs and monkeys; the contractions were elicited at lower concentrations in cerebral than in the peripheral arteries ...

Ouabain - the insulin of the heart.
Prior to the introduction of modern drugs like angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors and β-adrenergic receptor antagonists, the cardiac glycoside ouabain (referred to as g-Strophanthin in German) has routinely been used in treatment of heart diseases.
