Cancer is often accompanied by thromboembolic events, which might be a result of dysfunctional endothelial cells due to CPA treatment. Here, the effect of 1 mM CPA or acrolein (10/50/100/500 μM) on human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) was analyzed after two days of treatment. The addition of CPA or 10 μM acrolein did not affect HUVECs. However, concentrations of 100 μM and 500 μM acrolein significantly reduced the number of adherent cells by 86 ± 13\% and 99 ± 1\% and cell viability by 51 ± 29\% and 93 ± 8\% compared to the control. Moreover, pronounced stress fibers as well as multiple nuclei were observed and von Willebrand factor (vWF) was completely released. Lactate dehydrogenase was 8.5 ± 7.0-fold and 252.9 ± 42.9-fold increased showing a loss of cell membrane integrity. The prostacyclin and thromboxane secretion was significantly increased by the addition of 500 μM acrolein (43.1 ± 17.6-fold and 246.4 ± 106.3-fold) indicating cell activation/pertubation. High doses of acrolein led to HUVEC death and loss of vWF production. This effect might be associated with the increased incidence of thromboembolic events in cancer patients treated with high doses of CPA.}, language = {en} } @misc{JungKruegerGengeWaldecketal., author = {Jung, Friedrich and Kr{\"u}ger-Genge, Anne and Waldeck, Peter and K{\"u}pper, Jan-Heiner}, title = {Spirulina platensis, a super food?}, series = {Journal of Cellular Biotechnology}, volume = {5}, journal = {Journal of Cellular Biotechnology}, number = {1}, issn = {2352-3689}, doi = {10.3233/JCB-189012}, pages = {43 -- 54}, abstract = {Spirulina platensis, a multicelluar, photosynthetic prokaryote (algae) contains a high amount of proteins, vitamins and minerals superior to many foods as e.g. soybeans. Thus, Spirulina platensis was recognized as nutritious food by the United Nations World Food Conference. Due to the high amount of nutritive ingredients Spirulina has a long history as dietary supplement. In addition, spirulina platensis is also efficiently used as forage with known effects on flesh, egg and plumage color, milk yield and fertility. The versatile utilization of the alga can be explained on the one hand with the nutrient levels and on the other hand with recognized effects as anti-viral, anti-bacterial, anti-oxidant, anti-diabetic, anti-cancer and anti-inflammatory substance. Therefore, this alga is named as "superfood". Beyond, these algae convert carbon dioxide into organic substances and produce oxygen during their growth in alkaline and saline water thereby not wasting fresh water allowing the production in barren areas. Despite this diverse use of Spirulina platensis due to its beneficial properties, many basic mechanisms on a molecular and cellular level are not well understood and should be explored in future studies.}, language = {en} } @misc{KruegerGengeJungKuepperetal., author = {Kr{\"u}ger-Genge, Anne and Jung, Friedrich and K{\"u}pper, Jan-Heiner and Lehmann, Christian and Franke, Ralf-Peter}, title = {Actin type and distribution in erythrocytes}, series = {Journal of Cellular Biotechnology}, volume = {3}, journal = {Journal of Cellular Biotechnology}, number = {2}, issn = {2352-3697}, doi = {10.3233/JCB-179014}, pages = {81 -- 83}, abstract = {Erythrocytes transport oxygen from the lungs to the tissues.
