LITERATURE
DELTA9-tetrahydrocannabinol together with induced levels of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor alpha significantly stimulate the expression of fatty acid 2 hydroxylase
-
differentiation-dependent up-regulation of ceramide synthesis and fatty acid elongation is accompanied by up-regulation of FA2H
fatty acid 2-hydroxylase (FA2H) is upregulated in vitro by nimodipine, a component of myelin synthesis. Nimodipine but not nifedipine increases FA2H protein levels and also significantly increases mRNA levels of FA2H in both undifferentiated and differentiated Neuro2a cells. Osmotic (NaCl) stress increases FA2H mRNA expression, synergistically with nifedipine-induced stress, overview
nimodipine promotes expression of fatty acid 2-hydroxylase in a surgical stress model based on Neuro2a cells
-
treatment of D6P2T Schwannoma cells with dibutyryl-cAMP induces exit from the cell cycle with concomitant upregulation of FA2H
