S1.23 Investigation of the sialyltransferases present in two populations of ehrlich ascites tumor cells
(Kluwer Academic Publishers; Chapman & Hall ; Springer Science+Business Media, 1993-08)
Involvement of 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 in regulating myocardial calcium metabolism: Physiological and pathological actions
(Elsevier, 1988)
The role of the prohormone vitamin D3 in regulating calcium and phosphate metabolism in the intestine, kidney, and bone has been known for several decades [1]. Recent studies have provided evidence that vitamin D3, may ...
S18.20 Preparation of two kinds of sialic acid specific monomeric monovalent lectin derivatives and their application to the study of cell surface glycoconjugates by flow cytometry
(Kluwer Academic Publishers; Chapman & Hall ; Springer Science+Business Media, 1993-08)
Isolation of a novel plant lectin with an unusual specificity from Calystegia sepium
(Kluwer Academic Publishers; Chapman and Hall ; Springer Science+Business Media, 1997-01)
A novel plant lectin has been isolated from the rhizomes of Calystegia sepium (hedge bindweed) and partially characterized. The lectin is a dimeric protein composed of two identical non-covalently linked subunits of 16kDa. ...
Treatment of Gaucher disease with an enzyme inhibitor
(Kluwer Academic Publishers; Chapman & Hall ; Springer Science+Business Media, 1996-04)
The hypothesis is offered predicting that Caucher patients could be treated with a drug that slows the synthesis of glucosylceramide, the lipid that accumulates in this disorder. The present therapeutic approach involves ...
Subcellular distribution of terminal α-D- and β-D-galactosyl residues in Ehrlich tumour cells studied by lectin-gold techniques
(Kluwer Academic Publishers; Chapman & Hall ; Springer Science+Business Media, 1995-04)
We have studied by high resolution in situ light and electron microscopic lectin-gold techniques the subcellular distribution of α- d -Gal residues using the Griffonia simplicifolia I-B 4 isolectin and compared it with ...
Characterization of gangliosides from Ehrlich ascites tumour cells and their variants
(Kluwer Academic Publishers; Chapman & Hall ; Springer Science+Business Media, 1996-04)
Differences in the nature of the gangliosides present in two types of Ehrlich ascites tumour (EAT) cells, the adherent and non-adherent EAT cells, were studied. Gangliosides were isolated by DEAE Sephadex column chromatography ...
Charge-coupled device imaging of rapid calcium transients in cultured arterial smooth muscle cells
(Elsevier, 1990)
Transient changes in the concentration of intracellular free calcium are associated with the transduction of primary signals and the subsequent employment of Ca2+ as a second messenger in a multitude of cell types. These ...
Purification and carbohydrate-binding specificity of Agrocybe cylindracea lectin
(Kluwer Academic Publishers; Chapman and Hall ; Springer Science+Business Media, 1997-01)
A lectin was isolated from fruiting bodies of Agrocybe cylindracea by two ion-exchange chromatographies and gel filtration on Toyopearl HW55F. The lectin was homogeneous on polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and its molecular ...
Studies of the action of ceramide-like substances ( d - and l -PDMP) on sphingolipid glycosyltransferases and purified lactosylceramide synthase
(Kluwer Academic Publishers; Chapman & Hall ; Springer Science+Business Media, 1996-06)
We have studied the effects of D -threo-1-phenyl-2-decanoylamino-3-morpholino-1-propanol ( D -PDMP) and its L -enantiomer on glycosphingolipids in cultured normal human kidney proximal tubular cells. We found that D -PDMP ...
