Sentence examples for membrane potential triggered from inspiring English sources

CHOP silencing with siRNA was efficient (Supplementary Figure 6), but it did not prevent the disruption of mitochondrial membrane potential triggered by PDT+EGF-SubA.

27-OHC dose-dependently increased Aβ peptide production, increased levels of ER stress specific markers caspase 12 and gadd153 (also called CHOP), reduced mitochondrial membrane potential, triggered Ca2+ dyshomeostasis, increased levels of the nuclear factor κB (NFκB) and heme-oxygenase 1 (HO-1), two proteins activated by oxidative stress.

This change in membrane potential triggers an influx of calcium into the cell that in turn results in the fusion of synaptic vesicles with the plasma membrane and the release of the neurotransmitter.

As reported by us and other groups, a loss of mitochondrial membrane potential triggers stabilization of mitochondrial PINK1.

The uncoupler lowers mitochondrion membrane potential, triggers ATP synthesis, and shifts the redox state of the electron carriers in the direction of oxidation.

We found that dissipation of the mitochondrial membrane potential triggers phosphorylation of both PINK1 and Parkin and that, in response, Parkin translocates to depolarized mitochondria.

A decrease in membrane potential triggers myocyte contractile activity and leads to spontaneous contractions; conversely, amplification of membrane potential to a resting −50 mV maintains the uterus in a quiescent state (Nakajima, 1971; Pressman et al., 1988).

We observed that YK perturbed the mitochondrial membrane potential which triggered the release of cytochrome c which in turn activated the apoptotic machinery [ 25].

These change the membrane potential and trigger an action potential directly in neurons of the visual cortex.

Under this condition any minor perturbation of the axon membrane potential could trigger an action potential in the motor neuron and subsequent EJP in the targeted muscle.

To assess autophagosomes in the absence of TBC1D15, we made stable cell lines expressing YFP-LC3 and mCherry-Parkin and treated the cells with valinomycin, a potassium ionophore that dissipates mitochondrial inner membrane potential, to trigger Parkin-mediated mitophagy.
