Characterization of [beta]-endorphin-related peptides in the caudal medulla oblongata and hypothalamus of the prenatal, postnatal and adult rat
(Elsevier, 1991-09-19)
A comparison was made of [beta]-endorphin (B-END) concentrations versus post-translation products during the perinatal period in the hypothalamus and the caudal medulla oblongata. The concentration of B-END-like immunoreactivity ...
Leuconostoc mesenteroides growth kinetics with application to bacterial profile modification
(Wiley Subscription Services, Inc., A Wiley Company, 1994-04-15)
Bacterial profile modification (BPM) is being developed as an oil recovery technique that uses bacteria to selectively plug oil depleted zones within a reservoir to divert displacing fluids (typically water) into oil-rich ...
Predictions for oxygen supply control to enhance population stability of engineered production strains
(Wiley Subscription Services, Inc., A Wiley Company, 1994-02-20)
The simultaneous growth and product formation in a microbial culture is an important feature of several laboratory, industrial, and environmental bioprocesses. Metabolic burden associated with product formation in these ...
High-density algal photobioreactors using light-emitting diodes
(Wiley Subscription Services, Inc., A Wiley Company, 1994-11-20)
Lack of high-density algal photobioreactors (PBR) has been a limitation in exploiting the biotechnological potential of algae. Recent developments of highly efficient light-emitting diodes (LED using gallium aluminum ...
The Role of the Hippocampal Mineralocorticoid and Glucocorticoid Receptors in the Hypothalamo-Pituitary-Adrenal Axis of the Aged Fisher Rat
(Elsevier, 1994-10)
The aging process has been frequently associated with hippocampal neuredegeneration, loss of corticosteroid receptors, and, at the same time, dysfunction of the hypothalamo-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis. We were interested ...
Effect of medium osmolarity on hybridoma growth, metabolism, and antibody production
(Wiley Subscription Services, Inc., A Wiley Company, 1991-04-25)
No Abstract.
Cyclic AMP accumulation alters calmodulin localization in SK-N-SH human neuroblastoma cells
(Elsevier, 1992-01)
In SK-N-SH human neuroblastoma cells, the muscarinic agonist carbachol promotes polyphosphoinositide (PPI) hydrolysis via M3 receptors and increases cyclic AMP levels through an unidentified mechanism. Activation of PPI ...
Homogenization theory and digital imaging: A basis for studying the mechanics and design principles of bone tissue
(Wiley Subscription Services, Inc., A Wiley Company, 1994-03-25)
Bone tissue is a complex multilevel composite which has the ability to sense ad respond to its mechanical environment. It is believed that bone cells called osteocytes within the bone matrix sense the mechanical environment ...
Biochemical production capabilities of escherichia coli
(Wiley Subscription Services, Inc., A Wiley Company, 1993-06-05)
Microbial metabolism provides at mechanism for the conversion of substrates into useful biochemicals. Utilization of microbes in industrial processes requires a modification of their natural metabolism in order to increase ...
Diurnal Regulation of Glucocorticoid Receptor and Mineralocorticoid Receptor mRNAs in Rat Hippocampus
(Elsevier, 1993-04)
The present studies were undertaken to determine whether hippocampal glucocorticoid receptor (GR) and mineralocorticoid receptor (MR) biosynthesis, as inferred from mRNA expression, exhibit diurnal patterns of activation ...
