Recently, we have reported that inosine 5'-monophosphate dehydrogenase inhibitors, such as mycophenolic acid (MPA), induce the differentiation of PC-3 cells, which are derived from a human androgen-independent prostate cancer, into cells with a phenotype resembling maturing prostate secretory cells. Here
Divalent cations, especially calcium and magnesium, have been shown to play an important regulatory role in endothelial and immune cells. To learn more about the interaction of these two metals in the regulation of cell growth, we altered the calcium/magnesium

The purpose of this study was to determine the effects of an extract from Moringa oleifera (MO) on the development of monocrotaline (MCT)-induced pulmonary hypertension (PH) in Wistar rats. An ethanol extraction was performed on dried MO leaves, and HPLC

In vivo chronic metabolic acidosis induces net Ca2+ efflux from bone, and incubation of neonatal mouse calvariae in medium simulating physiological metabolic acidosis induces bone resorption. It appears that activation of the proton (H+) receptor OGR1 in the osteoblast leads
The role of intracellular calcium in the modulation of a depressant-like condition was investigated in the mouse forced swimming test. I.c.v. administration of TMB-8 (0.23-46.3 nmol per mouse), a blocker of Ca2+ release from intracellular stores, decreased the mouse immobility
