Adenosine A2b Receptor Effects On Post-Mi Remodeling And Cardiac Fibroblast Function, Enbo Zhan 2014 Wayne State University

Adenosine A2b Receptor Effects On Post-Mi Remodeling And Cardiac Fibroblast Function, Enbo Zhan

Wayne State University Dissertations

Adenosine A2B receptor (A2BR) appear to contribute to chronic inflammation. This receptor is highly expressed in macrophages and cardiac fibroblasts, cells which play key roles in inflammation and healing following myocardial infarction (MI). A2BR have been shown to induce collagen production and promote organ fibrosis, although the reports of A2BR role on MI are limited and conflicting. The results of cardiac fibroblast (CF) studies however suggest that non-selective A2BR stimulation inhibits collagen expression. The hypothesis of the present study was that deletion of A2BR reduces adverse remodeling in post-MI, …

Dj-1 And Atp13a2: Two Proteins Involved In Parkinson’S Disease, Josephat M Asiago

Open Access Dissertations

Parkinson's disease (PD) is the second most common neurodegenerative disorder after Alzheimer's disease, affecting approximately 0.3% of the total U.S. population, and its prevalence increases with age. Two neuropathological hallmarks of PD are the loss of dopaminergic neurons in the substantia nigra pars compacta, a region in the midbrain involved in initiating and sustaining movement, and the presence of cytosolic inclusions called Lewy bodies (LBs) in various brain regions. LBs are enriched with fibrillar forms of the presynaptic protein &agr;-synuclein (aSyn). Two autosomal recessive genes implicated in familial PD are PARK9, encoding the P-type ATPase ATP13A2, a lysosomal ATPase; and …
