These motor effects may be due to increase of dopamine(DA) release from SNc because intracerebroventricular administration of ghrelin caused increase of DA turnover rate in the ***,the results suggest that ghrelin,as a physiological mediator capable of regulating neuronal excitability,participates in the motor function and neuroprotection in SNc.

Objective To investigate effect of mechanical strain on ca-ca MK-cREB signal pathway and proliferation of osteoblasts. Methods Using a four-point bending device, Mc3T3-E1 cells were exposed to mechanical tensile strains of 2500 microstrain(μs) and 5000 μs at 0.5 Hz respectively. The intracellular free ca( [ca]i) and calmodulin activity were assayed by fluorospectrophotometry, ca MK II β, cREB, and phosphorylated(activated) cREB(p-cREB) were assessed by immunoblotting, and cells proliferation was assayed with MTT. Pretreatment with verapamil were carried out to block ca channel and inhibitor U73122 was used to inhibit phospholipase c(PLc). Result Mechanical strains of 2500 μs and 5000 μs for 1 to 10 minutes both increased [ca]i level of the cells. The 2500 μs strain, a periodicity of 1 h/day for 3 days, activated calmodulin, elevated protein level of ca MK IIβand p-cREB and promoted cells proliferation, which were attenuated by pretreatment of verapamil or U73122. The effects of 5000 μs strain on calmodulin, caM K IIβ, p-cREB and proliferation were contrary to 2500 μs strain. conclusions The mechanical strain regulates osteoblasts proliferation through ca-ca MKcREB signal pathway via ca chunnel and PLc/IP3 transduction cascades.
