- Study of the molecular effect of OUA treatment on the HPA axis of rats exposed to chronic unpredictable stress, BP.DR
Abstract
Ouabain (OUA) is a cardiotonic glycoside protein known to inhibit Na + / K +-ATPase. It is also considered an endogenous hormone and it is produced in hypothalamus and in adrenal gland, but little is known about its physiological role. However, it has been demonstrated the involvement of the OAU in the acute stress response, where physical exercise is capable of increasing its levels in...
- Effects of LPS analysed in mouse models harboring disease-mutations in the 2- or ±3Na+/K+-ATPase, respectively, BE.EP.DR
Abstract
The enzyme Na+,K+-ATPase (Sodium Potassium Adenosine Trisfosfatase) is an integral membrane ion pump, essential to maintain the osmotic balance of cells, by its energy-driven ability to export Na+ and import K+. Its functions are vital to all cells. Of the four ±1-4 subunit isoforms, ±1-3 are expressed in the central nervous system. The ±2 isoform is highly enriched in atrocytes and the...
