Previous studies have demonstrated the presence of hemoglobin α-chain and β-chain in neurons rodent human brain thus indicating that is a normal component nerve cells may play role intraneuronal oxyge
Neuroprotection of erythropoietin (EPO) following long-term administration is hampered by the associated undesirable effects on hematopoiesis and body weight. For this reason, we tested carbamylated-EPO (CEPO), which has no effect erythropoiesis,
World population is expected to increase approximately 9 thousand million people by 2050 with a consequent food security decline. Besides, climate change major challenge that humanity facing, predicted rise in mean sea surface temperature of more than 2 ºC during this century. This study aims determine whether rearing 19, 24 or 28 may influence musculoskeletal development and muscle lipid metabolism gilthead bream juveniles. The expression growth hormone (GH)/insulin-like factors (IGFs)...
Neuroprotection of erythropoietin (EPO) following long-term administration is hampered by the associated undesirable effects on hematopoiesis and body weight. For this reason, we tested carbamylated-EPO (CEPO), which has no effect erythropoiesis, compared it with EPO in AβPP/PS1 mouse model familial Alzheimer’s disease. Groups 5-month old wild type (WT) transgenic mice received chronic treatment consisting CEPO (2,500 or 5,000 UI/kg) U I/kg) 3 days/week for 4 weeks. Memory at end was...
During the breeding season, wild quail (Coturnix coturnix coturnix) rise from an altitude of 200 m to 1,200 feed, covering a distance approximately 225 km in 2 mo. Blood O₂ transport properties were studied adult male specimens captured at m, 800 and m. Both hematocrit (Hct) blood hemoglobin concentration ([Hb]) increased with increase altitude. A positive correlation mean corpuscular volume (MCV) versus (MCH) (P < 0. 001) was observed, but red cell (RBC) number, percentage reticulocytes,...
The effects of two different degrees experimentally induced anemia and the consequent high percentage circulating immature erythrocytes on oxygen affinity (pH 7.5 41 C), erythrocyte organic phosphates, Hb fractions have been studied in quail. Blood reticulocytes reached percentages 24 69-87% first second experiments, respectively. Variations phosphate levels found during anemic process were related to amount reticulocytes. [ATP] (brackets indicate concentration) [ATP]/[Hb] molar ratio...
