Effects of DHA on the induction of protein kinase A (PKA) activity by isoproterenol (ISP) in astrocyte cultures.

Effects of ISP on the morphological differentiation of astrocytes supplemented with DHA. Ten day old erebral astrocyte cultures were supplemented with 100 mM DHA and 1% FBS for an additional 2 days. Cells were treated without (A) or with 1 mM ISP (B) for 48 h.

Release of DHA (a,c) and AA (b,d) from rat astrocytes stimulated with ATP (a,b), concentration dependence, (c,d) time dependence.

Release of DHA (a) and AA (b) from rat astrocytes stimulated with different agents. Cells were labeled with [14C]docosahexaenoic acid or [3 H]arachidonic acid in DMEM containing 10% fetal calf serum for 24 h, washed twice with HBS, and fresh DMEM was added. Then 20 min later, agents (ATP, 20 mm; thrombin, 0.1Uml1; bradykinin, 1 mm; and glutamate, 100 mm) were added at 371C for 15 min and then radioactivity in the medium was measured
