AUTOPHAGY ACTIVATION BY RAPAMYCIN BEFORE HYPOXIA-REOXYGENATION REDUCES ENDOPLASMIC RETICULUM STRESS IN ALVEOLAR EPITHELIAL CELLS

Autophagy Activation by Rapamycin Before Hypoxia-Reoxygenation Reduces Endoplasmic Reticulum Stress in Alveolar Epithelial Cells

Background: To determine potential effects of autophagy activation on hypoxia-reoxygenation (H/R) induced damage of a rat Jumpsuit alveolar epithelial cell line.Methods: CCL149 cells were subjected to autophagy agonist (rapamycin, Rap), autophagy inhibitor (3-methyladenine, 3-MA) or PBS for 1 h before H/R treatment for 2 h, 4 h and 6 h.The optimal

Why can Mikania micrantha cover trees quickly during invasion?

Abstract The invasion of Mikania micrantha by climbing and covering trees has rapidly caused the death of many shrubs and trees, seriously endangering forest biodiversity.In this study, M.micrantha seedlings were planted together with local tree species (Cryptocarya concinna) to simulate the process of M.micrantha climbing under the Jumpsuit forest
