Study of adenosine effects on proliferation of JEG-3 cell line
Nguyen, Ngoc Duong ; Červený, Lukáš (advisor) ; Jirkovský, Eduard (referee)
Charles University Faculty of Pharmacy in Hradec Králové Department of Pharmacology and Toxicology Student: Nguyen Ngoc Duong Supervisor: doc. PharmDr. Lukáš Červený, Ph.D. Title of diploma thesis: Effect of adenosine on the proliferation of JEG-3 cell line Adenosine is a purinergic signaling molecule that is used in nucleic acid synthesis. Transport of hydrophilic nucleosides through the plasma and/or organelle membranes is provided by equilibrative nucleoside transporters (ENTs), members of the SLC29A transporter family, and concentrative nucleoside transporters (CNTs), members of the SLC28A transporter family. The placenta is a complex and rapidly growing organ. It shows some patterns similar to tumors except for the fact that the placenta's growth is fully controlled. It was found that extracellular nucleosides support the proliferation of cancerous and some non-cancerous cells. The placenta expresses high levels of NTs which indicates the placenta's ability to take up the nucleosides from circulation, however, the contribution of this process to placental growth is known. The diploma thesis aims to test the effect of adenosine and other nucleosides on trophoblast proliferation. We evaluated whether adenosine and other nucleosides increase the proliferation of the choriocarcinoma-derived JEG-3 cell...
