Chronic depolarization induced by veratridine increases the survival of rat retinal ganglion cells 'in vitro'.

During the last decades it has been shown that trophic molecules released by target, afferent and glial cells play a pivotal role controlling neuronal cell death. Trophic molecules are able to inhibit this regressive event during development as well as during degenerative diseases. One of the mechanisms involved in the control of neuronal survival by afferent cells requires the release of trophic molecules stimulated by electrical activity. It has been demonstrated that veratridine (a depolarizing agent that keeps the Na+ channels opened) induces an increase in neuronal survival. In the present work we show that 3 microM veratridine induced a two-fold increase on the survival of retinal ganglion cells after 48 h in culture. The veratridine effect was inhibited by 50 microM amiloride (an inhibitor of Ca2+ channels), 25 microM benzamil (an inhibitor of Na+ channels), 30 microM dantrolene and 7.5 microM caffeine (both inhibitors of Ca2+ release from the endoplasmatic reticulum) and 10 microM BAPTA-AM (an intracellular Ca2+ chelator). However, 5 microM nifedipine (a selective inhibitor of voltage-dependent L-type Ca2+ channels) and 100 microM MK 801 (an inhibitor of NMDA receptors) did not block the veratridine effect. On the other hand, treatment with 10 microM genistein (an inhibitor of tyrosine kinase enzymes), 20 microM fluorodeoxyuridine (an inhibitor of cell proliferation) or 10 microM atropine (an antagonist of muscarinic receptors) completely abolished the effect of veratridine. Taken together, our results indicate that veratridine increases the survival of rat retinal ganglion cells through mechanisms involving Na+ influx, intracellular Ca2+ release, activation of tyrosine kinase enzymes and cellular proliferation. They also indicate that cholinergic activity plays an important role in the veratridine effect.

A human tissue-engineered vascular media: a new model for pharmacological studies of contractile responses.

Our method for producing tissue-engineered blood vessels based exclusively on the use of human cells, i.e., without artificial scaffolding, has previously been described (1). In this report, a tissue-engineered vascular media (TEVM) was specifically produced for pharmacological studies from cultured human vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMC). The VSMC displayed a differentiated phenotype as demonstrated by the re-expression of VSMC-specific markers and actual tissue contraction in response to physiological stimuli. Because of their physiological shape and mechanical strength, rings of human TEVM could be mounted on force transducers in organ baths to perform standard pharmacological experiments. Concentration-response curves to vasoconstrictor agonists (histamine, bradykinin, ATP, and UTP) were established, with or without selective antagonists, allowing pharmacological characterization of receptors (H1, B2, and P2Y1, and pyrimidinoceptors). Sustained agonist-induced contractions were associated with transient increases in cytosolic Ca2+ concentration, suggesting sensitization of the contractile machinery to Ca2+. ATP caused both Ca2+ entry and Ca2+ release from a ryanodine- and caffeine-sensitive store. Increased cyclic AMP or cyclic GMP levels caused relaxation. This human TEVM displays many of functional characters of the normal vessel from which the cells were originally isolated, including contractile/relaxation responses, cyclic nucleotide sensitivity, and Ca2+ handling mechanisms comparable to those of the normal vessel from which the cells were originally isolated. These results demonstrate the potential of this human model as a versatile new tool for pharmacological research.

In this study, we investigated the effect of noradrenaline depletion on contractile recovery in rat isolated heart following myocardial ischaemia. Groups tested included control tissues and hearts from reserpinised rats. Reserpine 1 mg/kg s.c. was injected into rats 18 to 24 h prior to experiments. Hearts underwent 15 min global normothermic ischaemia followed by 30 min reperfusion.Functional data (end diastolic pressure (EDP), heart rate (HR), left ventricular developed pressure (LVDP), dP/dt(max), dP/dt(min)) showed that contractile function following ischaemia-reperfusion is unaffected by reserpinisation. However, pre- and post-ischaemic coronary flow rates (CFR) were increased by 16 to 38% in hearts from reserpinised rats versus control hearts. Pre-ischaemic CFRs in control hearts (11.17+/-0.67 ml/in(-1) x g tissue(-1), n=9) were significantly lower then CFRs derived from reserpinised rat hearts (14.57+/-0.72 ml/min(-1)/g tissue(-1), n=10). Post-ischaemic reactive hyperaemia was evident in all groups. CFRs in reserpinised hearts remained elevated when compared to pre-ischaemic values through reperfusion (P<0.05). Reserpine treatment did not significantly alter pre- or post-ischaemic adenosine efflux. The A(2B) adenosine receptor antagonist alloxazine (10 microM) attenuated pre- and post-ischaemic CFRs in both control and reserpinised hearts (P<0.05) without altering the hyperaemic response while the A(2A) adenosine receptor antagonist 8-(3-chlorostyryl) caffeine (1 microM) did not alter CFRs in both groups. The A(3) adenosine receptor antagonist MRS1191 (0.1 microM) increased CFR in control and reserpinised hearts (P<0.05).Catecholamine depletion with reserpinisation enhances the responsiveness of the coronary resistance vessels to endogenous adenosine through activation of the A(2B) adenosine receptor.

Hair loss is a problem in modern soceity. Examining the factors of hair growth may shed light on how hair loss might occur. How long can hair grow before it stops growing eventually if it does? Given that the hair growth rate is quite uniform and constant, somewhere between 0.3-0.5 millimeters per day, it's believed that the length of anagen, the growth phase, differs among individuals, and this is the major determinant to the maximum hair length. For some individuals, anagen may last ten years. Of course the length of the anagen is governed by genes, and the genetic background of the individuals. Non-genetic factors such as nutritional condition, weather, seasonal changes (hair may grow a bit faster during winter), taking medications, health condition may of course influence the rate of hair growth as well as hair loss. The shape of the hair, straight or curly, is dependent on the shape of the follicle. A circular or round hair follicle would generate straight hair, while the follicle with oval or elliptical shapes (in its cross-section) would produce a curly hair.














DHEA is a natural hormone, and it is produced in our body by the adrenal glands. DHEA has been suggested to provide numerous potential benefits. DHEA (or dehydroepiandrosterone) is converted into androgens (male hormones) or estrogens (female hormones) in the cells.
