Neuromics' i-Fect TM used to Modulate phospho-Connexin 43
In this study data suggest the protective effects of EPO on NUV injuries are highly associated with the increase of p-Cx43, which improves GJIC to reduce neurotoxic substances: Ziyi Zhoua, Xiaobai Weib, Jun Xiang, Junpeng Gao, Lixin Wang, Jinsong You, Yefeng Cai , Dingfang Caid. Protection of erythropoietin against ischemic neurovascular unit injuries through the effects of connexin43. Biochemical and Biophysical Research Communications. doi:10.1016/j.bbrc.2015.02...The strands were incubated at 90°C for 5 min and then at 37°C for 1 h. SiRNA was prepared immediately before administration by mixing the RNA solution (1 μg/μl in annealing buffer) with the transfection reagent i-Fect (v/v: 1/3; Neuromics, Edina, MN, USA) to a final siRNA ...
Highlights
•EPO has protective effects on ischemic NVU injuries.
•EPO up-regulates phosphorylation of Cx43, not total Cx43.
•EPO's protective effects on NUV injuries are p-Cx43-GJIC dependent.
