CSF somatostatin in Alzheimer's disease and major depression: Relationship to hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis and clinical measures
(Elsevier, 1993)
Patients with Alzheimer's disease (AD) and major depression have been shown to have overlapping clinical symptoms and biological markers, including decreased concentrations of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) somatostatin-like ...
Changes at multiple levels of the hypothalamo-pituitary adrenal axis following repeated electrically induced seizures
(Elsevier, 1990)
Seizures, including electrically induced seizures (ECS), activate the hypothalamo-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis in rats. The present studies were undertaken to characterize the effects of repeated ECS on hormone release and ...
Population balance between producing and nonproducing hybridoma clones is very sensitive to serum level, state of inoculum, and medium composition
(Wiley Subscription Services, Inc., A Wiley Company, 1992-02-05)
Secreting and nonsecreting hybridoma populations derived from the murine hybridoma cell line 167.4G5.3 were each grown in batch culture in low serum and serum-free media. Under serum-free conditions, a secreting population ...
Gene expression of the insulin-like growth factors and their receptors in human neuroblastoma cell lines
(Elsevier, 1992-10)
Insulin-like growth factors (IGF) I and II are polypeptides with both growth-promoting and insulin-like metabolic effects. The developmentally specific expression of IGF I and II in the nervous system implies a role for ...
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 ...
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, ...
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 ...
Elemental balancing of biomass and medium composition enhances growth capacity in high-density Chlorella vulgaris cultures
(Wiley Subscription Services, Inc., A Wiley Company, 1998-09-05)
The basic requirements for high-density photoautotrophic microalgal cultures in enclosed photobioreactors are a powerful light source and proper distribution of light, efficient gas exchange, and suitable medium composition. ...
Protein extraction using the sodium bis(2-ethylhexyl) phosphate (NaDEHP) reverse micellar system
(Wiley Subscription Services, Inc., A Wiley Company, 1996-04-20)
The reverse micellar system of sodium bis(2-ethylhexyl) phosphate (NaDEHP)/isooctane/brine was used for liquid-liquid extraction of proteins. We investigated the solubilization of cytochrome-c and Α-chymotrypsin into the ...
Protamine immobilization and heparin adsorption on the protamine-bound cellulose fiber membrane
(Wiley Subscription Services, Inc., A Wiley Company, 1992-02-20)
Immobilization of protamine to the inner lumen of cellulose hollow fibers has been shown useful in preventing both heparin- and protamine-induced complications during an extracorporeal blood circulation procedure. The ...
