Brazilian Journal of Medical and Biological Research, 2010 We investigated the effects of low ouabain concentrations on systolic (SAP) and diastolic (DAP) arterial pressures and on pressor reactivity in 3-month-old male spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR). Arterial blood pressure (BP) and pressor reactivity to

Increased SK3 expression in DM1 lens cells leads to impaired growth through a greater calcium-induced fragility [PDF]
, 2006 Although cataract is a characteristic feature of myotonic dystrophy type 1 (DM1), little is known of the underlying mechanisms. We generated four lens epithelial cell lines derived from DM1 cataracts and two from age-matched, non-DM cataracts. Small-pool

Glia, Volume 74, Issue 6, June 2026.Zebrafish pde6c mutants undergo photoreceptor degeneration from 5 dpf, but rods regenerate from 4 wpf. scRNA‐seq of retinal microglia reveals dynamic change of states between 5 dpf and 4 wpf. Two states emerge specifically during regeneration. ABSTRACT Microglia, brain‐resident immune cells, maintain brain homeostasis.

Modulation of TNF‐α mRNA stability by human antigen R and miR181s in sepsis‐induced immunoparalysis
EMBO Molecular Medicine, 2014 Immunoparalysis is an important pathological mechanism in sepsis. However, an effective small molecule therapy is lacking. Here, we show that ouabain, a Na+,K+‐ATPase ligand, can reverse immunoparalysis in vitro, in vivo, and in clinical samples. Notably,

Biomolecules, 2020 Pathological homocysteine (HCY) accumulation in the human plasma, known as hyperhomocysteinemia, exacerbates neurodegenerative diseases because, in the brain, this amino acid acts as a persistent N-methyl-d-aspartate receptor agonist.

D-mannose transport and metabolism in isolated enterocytes [PDF]
, 2004 D-mannose transport and metabolism has been studied in enterocytes isolated from chicken small intestine. In the presence of Na+, the mannose taken up by the cells either remains free, is phosphorylated, is catabolized to H2O, or becomes part of membrane

Molecular Carcinogenesis, Volume 65, Issue 5, Page 577-588, May 2026.ABSTRACT Gastric cancer (GC) is the fifth most common type worldwide, representing a public health problem. Among the genes related to this tumorigenesis, the family of matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs), essential regulators of the extracellular matrix (ECM), stand out for their involvement in the development and progression of GC.

Effects of ouabain on vascular reactivity
Brazilian Journal of Medical and Biological Research, 1997 Ouabain is an endogenous substance occurring in the plasma in the nanomolar range, that has been proposed to increase vascular resistance and induce hypertension. This substance acts on the a-subunit of Na+,K+-ATPase inhibiting the Na+-pump activity.

Extinction of tyrosine aminotransferase gene activity in somatic cell hybrids involves modification and loss of several essential transcription factors [PDF]
, 1993 Extinction is defined as the loss of cell type-specific gene expression that occurs in somatic cell hybrids derived by fusion of cells with dissimilar phenotypes.
