Abstract:
The content of ATP and glucoso-6-phosphate in the dogs' bone marrow cells before and after cryopreservation in liquid nitrogen have been studied. It has been found that ATP and glucoso-6-phospate levels in the dog bone marrow cells after cryopreservation in liquid nitrogen without cryoprotectors was very low. Solutions of DMSO and PEO-400 were used as cryoprotectors. The DMSO was more effective than PEO-400, because no metabolic changes were observed in incubated and freezed-thawed cells there.

Glycolysis: Preparatory Phase
In cellular metabolism (the complete breakdown of glucose to extract energy), glycolysis is the first step. Glycolysis takes place in the cytoplasm of both prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells. Glucose enters heterotrophic cells in two ways. One method is through secondary active transport, where the transport takes place against the glucose concentration gradient. The other mechanism uses a group of integral proteins called GLUT proteins, also known as glucose transporter proteins. These...
Bone Marrow Sampling and Transplants
Bone marrow transplant is a potential cure for several diseases, including cancer and specific genetic disorders. Notably, this procedure is applicable for patients suffering from aplastic anemia, certain types of leukemia, severe combined immunodeficiency disease (SCID), Hodgkin's disease, non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, multiple myeloma, thalassemia, sickle-cell disease, and certain cancers.
