Abstract

Furan is a potent rodent hepatotoxicant and carcinogen. The present study was done to examine the effects of furan on hepatic energy metabolism both in vivo and in vitro in male F-344 rats. Furan produced concentration- and incubation time-dependent irreversible reductions in ATP in freshly isolated F-344 rat hepatocytes. Furan-mediated depletion of ATP occurred prior to cell death and was prevented by including 1-phenylimidazole, a cytochrome P450 inhibitor, in the suspensions. Male F-344 rats were treated with furan (0-30 mg/kg, po) and killed 24 hr later to prepare hepatic mitochondria. Furan produced dose-dependent increases in state 4 respiration and ATPase activity. Both of these changes were prevented by 1-phenylimidazole cotreatment. In a separate series of experiments, mitochondria were prepared from isolated rat hepatocytes following incubation with furan (2-100 microM) for 1-4 hr. Furan produced incubation time- and concentration-dependent increases in state 4 respiration and ATPase activity. Furan-mediated mitochondrial changes were prevented by adding 1-phenylimidazole to the hepatocyte suspensions. These results indicate that the ene-dialdehyde metabolite of furan uncouples hepatic oxidative phosphorylation in viv...Continue Reading

COVID-19

Coronaviruses encompass a large family of viruses that cause the common cold as well as more serious diseases, such as the ongoing outbreak of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19; formally known as 2019-nCoV). Coronaviruses can spread from animals to humans; symptoms include fever, cough, shortness of breath, and breathing difficulties; in more severe cases, infection can lead to death. This feed covers recent research on COVID-19.

Blastomycosis

Blastomycosis fungal infections spread through inhaling Blastomyces dermatitidis spores. Discover the latest research on blastomycosis fungal infections here.

Nuclear Pore Complex in ALS/FTD

Alterations in nucleocytoplasmic transport, controlled by the nuclear pore complex, may be involved in the pathomechanism underlying multiple neurodegenerative diseases including Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis and Frontotemporal Dementia. Here is the latest research on the nuclear pore complex in ALS and FTD.

Applications of Molecular Barcoding

The concept of molecular barcoding is that each original DNA or RNA molecule is attached to a unique sequence barcode. Sequence reads having different barcodes represent different original molecules, while sequence reads having the same barcode are results of PCR duplication from one original molecule. Discover the latest research on molecular barcoding here.

Chronic Fatigue Syndrome

Chronic fatigue syndrome is a disease characterized by unexplained disabling fatigue; the pathology of which is incompletely understood. Discover the latest research on chronic fatigue syndrome here.

Evolution of Pluripotency

Pluripotency refers to the ability of a cell to develop into three primary germ cell layers of the embryo. This feed focuses on the mechanisms that underlie the evolution of pluripotency. Here is the latest research.

Position Effect Variegation

Position Effect Variagation occurs when a gene is inactivated due to its positioning near heterochromatic regions within a chromosome. Discover the latest research on Position Effect Variagation here.

STING Receptor Agonists

Stimulator of IFN genes (STING) are a group of transmembrane proteins that are involved in the induction of type I interferon that is important in the innate immune response. The stimulation of STING has been an active area of research in the treatment of cancer and infectious diseases. Here is the latest research on STING receptor agonists.

Microbicide

Microbicides are products that can be applied to vaginal or rectal mucosal surfaces with the goal of preventing, or at least significantly reducing, the transmission of sexually transmitted infections. Here is the latest research on microbicides.
