Interaction Between Allopregnanolone and Amiloride Binding Sites on the GABA Receptor.
Cell Biochem Biophys
December 2024
Research Center of Neurology, Moscow, Russia.
Allopregnanolone (Allo) is a positive allosteric modulator of the GABA receptor, and amiloride (Ami) is a competitive antagonist of the GABA receptor. The purpose of this work was to study the combined effect of Allo and Ami on functional activity of GABA receptor. The GABA-induced chloride current (I) was measured in isolated Purkinje cells of rat cerebellum using the patch-clamp technique and a system of fast application.

Neoadjuvant therapy (NAT) has been studied in clinically localized prostate cancer (PCa) to improve the outcomes from radical prostatectomy (RP) by 'debulking' of high-risk PCa; however, using androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) at this point risks castration resistant PCa (CRPC) clonal proliferation. Our goal is to identify alternative NAT that reduce hormone sensitive PCa (HSPC) without affecting androgen receptor (AR) transcriptional activity. PCa is associated with increased expression and activation of the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) family, including HER2 and ErbB3.

Objective: To explore the possible mechanism of absorption of iron oxide nanoparticles into the human body through the gastrointestinal tract.
Methods: This article used Caco-2 monolayer cells as a cell model, prepared characterized iron oxide nanoparticles(Fe_2O_3 NPs) as suspensions, and intervened in Caco-2 cells. CCK-8 method, transwell method, and atomic spectrophotometer method were used to explore the effect of Fe_2O_3 NPs on the activity of Caco-2 cells and the absorption and transport of them through the Caco-2 monolayer cell model.

Multiple myeloma (MM) is the second common hematological malignancy characterized by the abnormal proliferation of plasma cells. Although advances in the past decades have led to improved outcomes and longer survival, MM remains largely incurable. New targets and targeted therapy may help to achieve better outcomes.

From the Department of Internal Medicine, Texas Tech University Health Sciences Center, Lubbock, TX.
Salt-sensitive blood pressure is a clinical phenotype defined as exaggerated blood pressure responses to salt loading and salt depletion. This characteristic occurs in 25% of the general population and 50% of patients with hypertension and contributes to the pathogenesis of hypertension in some patients. Hypertension is associated with chronic inflammatory responses and has immune cell accumulation in several hypertensive target organs, including the brain, kidneys, heart, blood vessels, and the perivascular adipose tissue, and these cellular responses likely exacerbate hypertension.
