Glycopyrronium bromide blocks differentially responses mediated by muscarinic receptor subtypes.
1993
To analyse the potency of glycopyrronium bromide in blocking responses mediated via subtypes of muscarinic receptors in vitro, we tried to determine its equilibrium dissociation constants at prejunctional muscarinic receptors inhibiting the twitch response of rabbit vas deferens (presumed M1 type), at M2 (paced at left atria), M3 (guinea pig ileum) muscarinic receptor subtypes and at the muscarinic receptor of the rabbit iris sphincter (not M1-M4, not m5). Glycopyrronium bromide shifted to the right the curve for inhibition of the twitch response induced by the agonist McN-A-343, and the methacholine-induced curves for inhibition of rat atrial contraction, and for tonic contraction of guine…
Menaquinone-dependent succinate dehydrogenase of bacteria catalyzes reversed electron transport driven by the proton potential.
1998
Succinate dehydrogenases from bacteria and archaea using menaquinone (MK) as an electron acceptor (succinate/menaquinone oxidoreductases) contain, or are predicted to contain, two heme-B groups in the membrane-anchoring protein(s), located close to opposite sides of the membrane. All succinate/ubiquinone oxidoreductases, however, contain only one heme-B molecule. In Bacillus subtilis and other bacteria that use MK as the respiratory quinone, the succinate oxidase activity (succinate-->O2), and the succinate/menaquinone oxidoreductase activity were specifically inhibited by uncoupler (CCCP, carbonyl cyanide m-chlorophenylhydrazone) or by agents dissipating the membrane potential (valinomycin…

p-Chlorophenylalanine treatment depresses the number of synaptic ribbon profiles in the rat pineal gland, but does not abolish their day-night rhythm
1995
It is largely unknown as to how the day/night rhythm of pineal synaptic ribbon number is regulated. Transcriptional events related to the nocturnal formation of new synaptic ribbons occur early in the morning, when pineal serotonin levels begin to increase. The present study was carried out in order to elucidate as to how altered serotonin levels affect the day/night changes in the number of synaptic ribbon profiles. To this end, male Sprague-Dawley rats received a single dose of p-chlorophenylalanine (pCPA, 300 mg/kg body weight, 72 hours before sacrifice), which depresses tryptophan hydroxylase activity and hence pineal serotonin levels. Control animals received saline injections. Experim…
Characterization of the muscarine receptors involved in the modulation of serotonin release from the vascularly perfused small intestine of guinea pi…
1989
Isolated small intestinal segments of the guinea pig were arterially perfused and the release of 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) and its metabolite 5-hydroxyindoleacetic acid (5-HIAA) into the portal venous effluent measured by HPLC with electrochemical detection. Test substances were applied via the arterial perfusion medium. McN-A-343, pilocarpine and oxotremorine inhibited concentration-dependently the outflow of 5-HT and 5-HIAA. Pirenzepine (0.03-0.1 mumol/l) which can discriminate between M1 and M2-receptor subtypes antagonized completely this inhibitory effect. In the presence of 1 mumol/l tetrodotoxin (TTx), all three muscarine receptor agonists increased the outflow of 5-HT and 5-HIAA. O…
Fluorescent styrylpyrylium probes for the imaging of mitochondria in live cells
2021
Eight styrylpyrylium tetrafluoroborate salts have been synthesized and fully optically characterized by UV-vis absorption and fluorescence steady-state/time-resolved spectroscopies. The new dyes exhibit strong emission bands with yellow–orange colours, depending on the substituents present in the structure. Notably, the Stokes shift recorded for some of them exceeds 100 nm, a very valuable feature for biological imaging. Four of them have been assayed as biological imaging agents by confocal laser scanning microscopy (CLSM) in the human hepatoma cell line Hep3B. It has been found that all the compounds efficiently stain intracellular structures which have been identified as mitochondria thr…
Reactive oxygen species derived from the mitochondrial respiratory chain are not responsible for the basal levels of oxidative base modifications obs…
2004
The mitochondrial electron transport chain (ETC) is the most important source of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in mammalian cells. To assess its relevance to the endogenous generation of oxidative DNA damage in the nucleus, we have compared the background (steady-state) levels of oxidative DNA base modifications sensitive to the repair glycosylase Fpg (mostly 7,8-dihydro-8-oxoguanine) in wild-type HeLa cells and HeLa rho0 cells. The latter are depleted of mitochondrial DNA and therefore are unable to produce ROS in the ETC. Although the levels of ROS measured by flow cytometry and redox-sensitive probes in rho0 cells were only 10-15% those of wild-type cells, steady-state levels of oxidativ…
