Glycine-extended post-translational processing intermediates of gastrin and cholecystokinin in the gut
(Elsevier, 1994-02-03)
Cholecystokinin (CCK) and gastrin are two polypeptide hormones of the gut that share complete structural homology in their carboxyl-terminal pentapeptide. Both peptides are biologically activated from their glycine-extended ...
Decreased formation of inositol trisphosphate in Madin-Darby canine kidney cells under conditions of [beta]-glucosidase inhibition
(Elsevier, 1992-02-01)
Recent work has demonstrated the enhancement of hormone-stimulated inositol trisphosphate formation in renal epithelial cells under conditions of glucosylceramide depletion. The role of glucosylceramide metabolism was ...
Comparison of the isolation of adducts fo 2'-deoxycytidine and 2'-deoxyguanosine with phenylglycidyl ether by high-performance liquid chromatography on a reversed-phase column and a polystyrene-divinylbenzene column
(Elsevier, 1991)
2'-Deoxycitidine (dCyd) and 2'-deoxyguanosine (dGuo) were subjected to reaction with phenylglycidyl ether (PGE) in methanol in order to study the formation of the corresponding 2'-deoxynucleoside adducts. Separation methods ...
Positive-ion thermospray liquid chromatography--mass spectrometry: detection of organic acidurias
(Elsevier, 1990)
Positive-ion thermospray liquid chromatography--mass spectrometry (TSP-LC-MS) is used to detect organic acids via the direct injection of untreated urine from newborns and infants. Two methods are reported for the separation ...
Ion-pair chromatography of inositol polyphosphates with N-methylimipramine
(Elsevier, 1990)
A novel counter-ion, N-methylimipramine, was synthesized and utilized in the separation of inositol phosphates by ion-pair chromatography. The structural identity of the counter-ion was documented by nuclear magnetic ...
Lactate Oxidation for the Detection of Mitochondrial Dysfunction in Human Skin Fibroblasts
(Elsevier, 1993-05-01)
To screen fibroblasts for defects in lactate/pyruvate oxidation, cells were grown to confluence in 25-cm2 flasks, rinsed, and incubated in glucose-free media containing 25 [mu]M L-lactate and 0.1 [mu]Ci [D,L-1-14C]lactate. ...
Interaction of fatty acids with recombinant rat intestinal and liver fatty acid-binding proteins
(Elsevier, 1991-04)
Intestinal enterocytes contain two homologous fatty acid-binding proteins, intestinal fatty acid-binding protein (I-FABP)2 and liver fatty acid-binding protein (L-FABP). Since the functional basis for this multiplicity is ...
