HPC-1/syntaxin-1A is a neuronal protein of which the mRNA has an immediate early gene-like structure in its 3'-untranslated region. Whereas HPC-1/syntaxin-1A protein plays a crucial role in neurotransmitter release, little is known about HPC-1 gene expression. We demonstrate here that HPC-1 mRNA expression in rat hippocampal neurons in vivo decreased 8 h after kainic acid (KA) administration, but was restored thereafter. The transient decrease of HPC-1 mRNA upon KA administration suggests that the HPC-1 mRNA expression in neurons could be altered by excitation by trans-synaptic stimulation.

Hypoxic Air Inhalation and Ischemia Interventions Both Elicit Preconditioning Which Attenuate Subsequent Cellular Stress Following Blood Flow Occlusion and Reperfusion.

Ischemic preconditioning (IPC) is valid technique which elicits reductions in femoral blood flow occlusion mediated reperfusion stress (oxidative stress, Hsp gene transcripts) within the systemic blood circulation and/or skeletal muscle. It is unknown whether systemic hypoxia, evoked by hypoxic preconditioning (HPC) has efficacy in priming the heat shock protein (Hsp) system thus reducing reperfusion stress following blood flow occlusion, in the same manner as IPC. The comparison between IPC and HPC being relevant as a preconditioning strategy prior to orthopedic surgery.

Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is highly heritable and encompasses a various set of neuropsychiatric disorders with a wide-ranging presentation. HPC-1/syntaxin1A (STX1A) encodes a neuronal plasma membrane protein that regulates the secretion of neurotransmitters and neuromodulators. STX1A gene ablated mice (null and heterozygote mutant) exhibit abnormal behavioral profiles similar to human autistic symptoms, accompanied by reduction of monoamine secretion.

Neurons preconditioned with non-injurious hypoxia or the anesthetic isoflurane express different genes but are equally protected against severe hypoxia/ischemia. We hypothesized that neuroprotection would be augmented when preconditioning with isoflurane and hypoxic preconditioning are combined. We also tested if preconditioning requires intracellular Ca(2+) and the inositol triphosphate receptor, and if gene expression is similar in single agent and combined preconditioning.

Purpose: To investigate whether conditioned medium from embryonic rat retinas can induce differentiation of adult rat hippocampus-derived neural stem cells (AHSCs) into neurons and glia in vitro.
Methods: AHSCs were cultured in 3 types of media: standard culture medium, conditioned medium from embryonic rat retina, and standard culture medium with retinoic acid. Neuronal and glial differentiation of the cultured cells was assessed by cell growth analysis, flow cytometric analysis, immunofluorescent staining, and RT-PCR analysis.

To elucidate the mechanisms of metastasis, we established two sublines HPC-1H5 with a highly liver metastatic cell line and HPC-1P5a with a highly peritoneal disseminating cell line, which were sequentially selected from the parental pancreatic cancer cell line HPC-1. Using these three cell lines, we investigated several biological properties and mRNA levels of differentially-expressed genes involved in cancer metastasis by cDNA macroarray. Microscopic findings for the three cell lines were the same.
