Chakrabarti, Subhadeep, Wu, Jianping
Milk derived tripeptides IPP (Ile-Pro-Pro) and VPP (Val-Pro-Pro) have shown promise as anti-hypertensive agents due to their inhibitory effects on angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE). Due to the key inter-related roles of hypertension, chronic inflammation and insulin resistance in the...

Na+/H+ exchanger isoform 1-induced osteopontin expression facilitates cardiomyocyte hypertrophy
Download2015-01-01
Mohamed, Iman A., Gadeau, Alain-Pierre, Fliegel, Larry, Lopaschuk, Gary, Mlih, Mohamed, Abdulrahman, Nabeel, Filmore, Natasha, Mraiche, Fatima
Enhanced expression and activity of the Na+/H+ exchanger isoform 1 (NHE1) has been implicated in cardiomyocyte hypertrophy in various experimental models. The upregulation of NHE1 was correlated with an increase in osteopontin (OPN) expression in models of cardiac hypertrophy (CH), and the...

Jacob-Ferreira, Anna Laura, Kondo, Marcia Yuri, Baral, Pravas Kumar, James, Michael N., Holt, Andrew, Fan, Xiaohu, Schulz, Richard
Matrix metalloproteinase-2 (MMP-2) is a key intra- and extra-cellular protease which contributes to several oxidative stress related pathologies. A molecular understanding of 72 kDa MMP-2 activity, directly mediated by S-glutathiolation of its cysteine residues in the presence of peroxynitrite...

Johnson Stoklossa, Carlene A., Forhan, Mary, Padwal, Raj S., Gonzalez, Maria Cristina, Prado, Carla M.
Purpose of Review The purpose of this review is to explore the practical considerations for body composition assessment of adults with class II/III obesity. Studies assessing adults (18–64 years) with a body mass index (BMI) ≥35 kg/m2 with bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) and/or dual-energy...

Protein Kinase Mediated Regulation of the Na+/H+ Exchanger in the Rat Myocardium by MAP-Kinase-dependent Pathways
Download1999-01-01
Moor, Andrea Noor, Fliegel, Larry
We examined regulation of the Na+/H+ exchanger isoform 1 by phosphorylation in the rat myocardium. We utilized cell extracts from adult rat hearts, adult rat extracts fractionated by fast performance liquid chromatography, and extracts from cultured neonatal cardiac myocytes. The...

van Houten, B., Patel, M., Chan, C. B., Orrenius, S. , Fariss, M. W.
Oxidative stress and mitochondrial oxidative damage have been implicated in the etiology of numerous common diseases. The critical mitochondrial events responsible for oxidative stress–mediated cell death (toxic oxidative stress), however, have yet to be defined. Several oxidative events...

Dodson, Michael V., Hausman, Gary J., Guan, LeLuo, Du, Min, Rasmussen, Theodore P., Poulos, Sylvia P., Mir, Priya, Bergen, Werner G., Fernyhough, Melinda E., McFarland, Douglas C., Rhoads, Roberts P., Soret, Beatrice, Reecy, James M., Velleman, Sandra G., Jiang, Zhihua
Skeletal muscle stem cells from food-producing animals are of interest to agricultural life scientists seeking to develop a better understanding of the molecular regulation of lean tissue (skeletal muscle protein hypertrophy) and intramuscular fat (marbling) development. Enhanced understanding of...
