Preliminary characterization of VmTPT2, a putative monoterpene indole alkaloid (MIA) transporter from Vinca minor L. (Apocynaceae)
The various steps of monoterpene indole alkaloid (MIA) biosynthesis are known to occur in specialized cell types and subcellular compartments. Numerous MIAs display powerful biological activities that have led to their use as pharmaceutical treatments for cancer, hypertension and malaria. Many of …

Anti-inflammatory and joint-protective effects of blueberries in a monosodium iodoacetate (MIA) induced rat model of osteoarthritis
… study design employed a monosodium iodoacetate (MIA) induced rat model of osteoarthritis. Forty, 45-day-old female CD rats were used where thirty rats were injected with MIA to induce joint destruction associated with osteoarthritis and ten rats served as control without induction of joint …

Role of a PTP1B Pathway in the Neuropsychiatric Expression of a Mouse Maternal Immune Activation Model
… disorders. Maternal immune activation (MIA) animal models have been used to explore how the maternal immune system may cause expression of pathophysiology in offspring. Protein tyrosine phosphatase (PTP1B) is recruited during inflammation and its regulatory proteins are modulated in MIA. …

Bioinformatics characterization of the molecular pathways impacted by immune challenges in the amygdala
… development. This maternal immune activation (MIA) can have lasting effects on the fetus and has been associated with neurological and behavioral deficits often seen in neurodevelopmental, neurodegenerative, and mood disorders. The amygdala, a structure located in the forebrain, plays a central …

Exploring the effects of maternal immune activation on cisplatin-induced toxicities.
… stressors, like maternal immune activation (MIA) may contribute to these differences in susceptibility. As MIA has been associated with alterations in stress responsivity, inflammation, and metabolism, we wanted to determine if MIA would exacerbate cisplatin-induced fatigue and affective …

The role of IL-17a in the rescue of ASD-like behavioral phenotypes following immune stimulation in a mouse model of neurodevelopmental disorders
… mice were exposed to maternal immune activation (MIA) during embryogenesis with mice genetically deficient for Cntnap2, Fmr1, and Shank3. We found that activation of the immune system using lipopolysaccharide (LPS) was sufficient to rescue behavioral deficits within the MIA model, but not the …

A Catharanthus roseus mutant with trace levels of secologanin and monoterpenoid indole alkaloids does not express BIS1/BIS2 transcription factors and fails to activate iridoid biosynthesis.
… source of the monoterpenoid indole alkaloids (MIAs) that result in several essential anti-cancer chemotherapies as well as being an important source for other MIA derived pharmaceutical agents. Most of the alkaloid and pre-alkaloid iridoid pathway has been elucidated, but some critical areas …

Behavioral analysis of piglets exposed to a second immune challenge following maternal immune activation
… combined effects of maternal immune activation (MIA) and a second immune challenge later in life on pig behavior have not been studied. Deciphering these effects is particularly relevant in diseases that can have pronounced effects during gestation, such as porcine reproductive and respiratory …
