  • BIO-MPM-1 Medium is a multi-purpose, serum-free medium for culture of a wide variety of anchorage-dependent cells. (bioind.com)
  • The severity of hypoxia determines whether cells become apoptotic or adapt to hypoxia and survive. (bmj.com)
  • On the other hand, the number of circulating hEPC is increased in hypoxia or acute myocardial infarction (AMI). (intechopen.com)
  • The association of functional polymorphisms in genes expressed in endothelial cells and smooth muscle cells with the myocardial infarction. (cdc.gov)
  • As greater understanding of the growth factors involved in wound healing emerges, future patient care may include scarless wound healing and transplant of tissues engineered from stem cell progenitors. (medscape.com)
  • Cells will adapt by activating the expression of genes involved in metabolic adaptation, such as those involved in glycolysis. (bmj.com)
  • Single-cell motility is spatially heterogeneous and driven by metabolic energy. (nature.com)
  • Here, we use single-cell metabolic imaging to measure glycolysis in individual endothelial cells with genetically encoded biosensors capable of deciphering metabolic heterogeneity at subcellular resolution. (nature.com)
  • In addition, the number and the migratory activity of these cells are inversely correlated with risk factors such as hypertension, hypercholesterolemia, diabetes, and metabolic syndrome. (intechopen.com)
  • Alterations in cell viability and metabolic activity were determined. (lu.se)
  • Metabolic activity was significantly increased by hypoxia in both epithelial cell types. (lu.se)
  • Breast cancer stem cells (BCSCs) play a critical role in tumor recurrence and metastasis. (nih.gov)
  • Metastases represent the end products of a multistep cell-biological process termed the invasion metastasis cascade, which involves dissemination of cancer cells to anatomically distant organ sites. (medscape.com)
  • Infiltrated cells might proceed towards overt metastasis with or without an intervening period of latency (dormancy). (medscape.com)
  • Furthermore, because VEGFA-165 expression is hypoxia sensitive, it may play a role in respiratory plasticity after prolonged exposures to low oxygen. (jneurosci.org)
  • For investigation of RGS5, we hypothesize that silencing RGS5 expression using siRNA technology (5) leads to secretome changes that effect cells at the BBB. (lu.se)
  • Coordinated activation of RhoA and RhoB maximized the hypoxia-induced stress fiber formation caused by RhoB/mammalian homolog of Drosophila diaphanous-induced actin polymerization and RhoA/Rho kinase-induced phosphorylation of myosin light chain on Ser19. (brighton.ac.uk)
  • Mammalian cells have developed a range of adaptations to survive acute and even prolonged hypoxia. (bmj.com)
  • The formulation contains no albumin, which has been found to be non-essential for cell growth, and even prevents efficient adhesion in some cases. (bioind.com)
  • Hypoxia-driven pulmonary vascular remodelling is one of the underlying mechanisms, although many other mechanisms may contribute [ 5 ]. (ersjournals.com)
  • RhoA activation triggers a glycolytic burst through the translocation of the glucose transporter SLC2A3/GLUT3 to fuel the cellular contractile machinery, as demonstrated across multiple endothelial cell types. (nature.com)
