Protein Kinase Inhibitors Block Neurite Outgrowth from Explants of Goldfish Retina
(Kluwer Academic Publishers-Plenum Publishers; Plenum Publishing Corporation ; Springer Science+Business Media, 1997-10)
A role for protein phosphorylation in the process of neurite outgrowth has been inferred from many studies of the effects of protein kinase inhibitors and activators on cultured neurotumor cells and primary neuronal cells ...
Isolation and expression of the Drosophila drosulfakinin neural peptide gene product, DSK-I
(Elsevier, 1992-08)
The Drosophila drosulfakinin (dsk) gene encodes the cholecystokinin homologues drosulfakinin-I (DSK-I) and drosulfakinin-II (DSK-II). The naturally occurring DSKI peptide was isolated from an extract of adult flies and its ...
Multiple steroid hormone levels in depressed patients and normal controls before and after exogenous ACTH
(Elsevier, 1991)
Forty depressed patients and 36 age- and sex-matched controls were given 250 [mu]g ACTH1-24 by bolus. Plasma steroid hormone levels were measured prior to and 60 min after ACTH administration. The depressed patients had ...
Continued search for the cellular signals that regulate regeneration of dopaminergic neurons in goldfish retina
(Elsevier, 1993-12-17)
Intraocular injections of low doses (0.7-1.4 mM estimated intraocular concentration) of 6-hydroxydopamine (6OHDA) selectively destroy dopaminergic neurons in the inner nuclear layer (INL) of goldfish retina, and they never ...
Application of membrane-based preferential transport to whole broth processing
(Wiley Subscription Services, Inc., A Wiley Company, 1997-08-20)
Preferential transport in adsorptive membranes can be used to selectively remove biochemicals directly from fermentation broths. During preferential transport, an adsorbing solute is selectively transported across the ...
High-density photoautotrophic algal cultures: Design, construction, and operation of a novel photobioreactor system
(Wiley Subscription Services, Inc., A Wiley Company, 1991-12-05)
A photobioreactor system has been designed, constructed and implemented to achieve high photosynthetic rates in high-density photoautotrophic algal cell suspensions. This unit is designed for efficient oxygen and biomass ...
The stochastic SI model with recruitment and deaths I. comparison with the closed SIS model
(Elsevier, 1993)
We compare the stochastic and deterministic version of an SI model with recuitment, background deaths, and deaths due to the disease. For the stochastic version, analysis of the mean number of susceptibles, m, and infecteds, ...
c-Myc Does Not Require Max for Transcriptional Activity in PC-12 Cells
(Elsevier, 1994-06)
The c-Myc proto-oncogene is a basic helix-loop-helix leucine zipper (b/HLH/LZ) protein that participates in cellular growth and differentiation. The expression of cMyc mRNA is rapidly induced by nerve growth factor (NGF) ...
Production of monoclonal antibody using free-suspended and immobilized hybridoma cells: Effect of serum
(Wiley Subscription Services, Inc., A Wiley Company, 1991-10-20)
The effect of serum on cell growth and monoclonal antibody (MAb) productivity was studied in a repeated fedbatch mode using both free-suspended and immobilized S3H5/Γ2bA2 hybridoma cells. In the suspension culture, serum ...
Tissue engineering of a bioartificial kidney
(Wiley Subscription Services, Inc., A Wiley Company, 1994-03-25)
Tissue engineering is a rapidly growing field in biotechnology. The use and packaging of synthetic materials, biologic compounds, and cellular components of specific tissues can be envisioned to replace physiologic function ...
