Adapting Homogeneous Enzyme-Linked Competitive Binding Assays to Microtiter Plates
(Elsevier, 1994-04)
Recently devised homogeneous enzyme-linked binding assays useful for the rapid detection of carbohydrate structure/content of intact glycoproteins (via use of lectins as binders) and for quantitating given vitamins (e.g., ...
Inhibition of hypochlorous acid-mediated reactions by desferrioxamine. Implications for the mechanism of cellular injury by neutrophils
(Elsevier, 1990)
Inhibition of free radical mechanisms by desferrioxamine, an iron chelator, is often thought to be a good indicator of iron-catalyzed hydroxyl radical (OH[middle dot]) production. The specificity of desferrioxamine is ...
Development of pure culture biofilms of P. putida on solid supports
(Wiley Subscription Services, Inc., A Wiley Company, 1991-03-15)
Pseudomonas putida biofilms were developed on and biofilm accumulation rate data were obtained for the following two classes of support materials: charged surfaces and noncharged hydrophobic and hydrophilic surfaces. The ...
Transforming growth factor-[beta]1 regulates steady-state PTH/PTHrP receptor mRNA levels and PTHrP binding in ROS 17/2.8 osteosarcoma cells
(Elsevier, 1994-05)
The effect of transforming growth factor [beta]1 (TGF-[beta]1) on the expression of mRNA for the parathyroid hormone receptor and binding of iodinated parathyroid hormone-related protein in ROS 17/2.8 osteosarcoma cells ...
Tissue-specific expression of the human neuropeptide Y gene in transgenic mice
(Elsevier, 1992-06)
Neuropeptide Y (NPY) is the most abundant neuropeptide detected in the mammalian brain, and is found throughout the central and peripheral nervous systems. This peptide is a proposed regulator of appetite, blood pressure, ...
Evidence that macrophages are programmed to die after activating autologous, cloned, antigen-specific, CD4 + T cells
(WILEY-VCH Verlag GmbH, 1993-07)
The bone marrow produces large numbers of monocytes daily, but the mechanisms balancing production and elimination are unknown. In this report we demonstrate that macrophages (Mφ) undergo apoptosis after activating autologous ...
Positive and negative regulation of IL-2 gene expression: Role of multiple regulatory sites
(Elsevier, 1994-05)
Interleukin 2 (IL-2) is an important lymphokine required in the process of T cell activation, proliferation, clonal expansion and differentiation. The IL-2 gene displays both T cell specific and inducible expression: it ...
Fat-preferring rats consume more alcohol than carbohydrate-preferring rats
(Elsevier, 1991)
Rats with a genetic preference for alcohol (ETOH) have been found to consume more dietary fat then ETOH nonpreferring rats. We therefore hypothesized that rats selected on the basis of fat and carbohydrate (CHO) preferences ...
The gustatory competence of the lingual epithelium requires neonatal innervation
(Elsevier, 1993-04-16)
The rat vallate papilla is bilaterally innervated by the IXth nerve whose axons are required for the normal development of its several hundred taste buds. Temporary denervation during the developmental sensitive period for ...
