Receptor-related interactions of opiates with PGE-induced adneylate cyclase in brain
(Elsevier, 2006-04-07)
The inhibition by opiates of the PGE2-induced formation of cAMP in slices from rat brain striatum was investigated. A maximal, 3.5-fold increase over the basal level of cAMP was obtained with an EC50 for PGE2 of 3 [mu]M. ...
Excitotoxic brain injury in adult zebrafish stimulates neurogenesis and long‐distance neuronal integration
(Wiley Periodicals, Inc., 2014-12)
Understanding the accuracy of statistical haplotype inference with sequence data of known phase
(Wiley Subscription Services, Inc., A Wiley Company, 2007-11)
Statistical methods for haplotype inference from multi-site genotypes of unrelated individuals have important application in association studies and population genetics. Understanding the factors that affect the accuracy ...
Rederivation of Transgenic and Gene-Targeted Mice by Embryo Transfer
(Kluwer Academic Publishers-Plenum Publishers; Kluwer Academic Publishers ; Springer Science+Business Media, 2004-08)
Research on genetically engineered mice provides insights into the etiology, therapy, and genetic basis of human diseases. An important variable that affects the results of mouse studies is the health status of the animals. ...
Ellis Van Creveld2 is Required for Postnatal Craniofacial Bone Development
(Wiley Periodicals, Inc., 2016-08)
Ellis‐van Creveld (EvC) syndrome is a genetic disorder with mutations in either EVC or EVC2 gene. Previous case studies reported that EvC patients underwent orthodontic treatment, suggesting the presence of craniofacial ...
Cell death in denervated skeletal muscle is distinct from classical apoptosis
(John Wiley & Sons, Inc., 2000-03-01)
Denervation of skeletal muscle is followed by the progressive loss of tissue mass and impairment of its functional properties. The purpose of the present study was to investigate the occurrence of cell death and its mechanism ...
FGF2 promotes Msx2 stimulated PC‐1 expression via Frs2/MAPK signaling
(Wiley Subscription Services, Inc., A Wiley Company, 2010-12-01)
PC‐1 is an enzymatic generator of pyrophosphate and a critical regulator of tissue mineralization. We previously showed that fibroblast growth factor‐2 (FGF2) specifically induces PC‐1 expression in calvarial pre‐osteoblasts ...
A guided tour of the Trans-Proteomic Pipeline
(WILEY-VCH Verlag, 2010-03)
The Trans-Proteomic Pipeline (TPP) is a suite of software tools for the analysis of MS/MS data sets. The tools encompass most of the steps in a proteomic data analysis workflow in a single, integrated software system. ...
Recruiting subjects in cancer prevention and control studies
(John Wiley & Sons, Inc., 2000)
Recruitment of subjects is a critical aspect of prevention trials that is often overlooked by investigators. As a consequence, accrual time is often extended, workloads may become heavy, and resource utilization is increased ...
Ganoderma lucidum polysaccharides enhance CD14 endocytosis of LPS and promote TLR4 signal transduction of cytokine expression
(Wiley Subscription Services, Inc., A Wiley Company, 2007-08)
We have previously reported that a well-characterized glycoprotein fraction containing fucose residues in an extract of Ganoderma lucidum polysaccharides (EORP) exerts certain immuno-modulation activity by stimulating ...
