Effect of Neuropeptide Y on Natural Killer Activity of Normal Human Lymphocytes
(Elsevier, 1993-03)
The in vitro effect of neuropeptide Y (NPY) on natural killer (NK) cell activities of normal lymphocytes was investigated. NPY at 10-9 to 10-12M concentrations produced significant suppression of NK activity against K 562 ...
Evaluation of amonafide in disseminated malignant melanoma
(Kluwer Academic Publishers; Springer Science+Business Media, 1993-06)
Amonafide (AMF), NSC 308847 is an investigational anticancer drug acting as a DNA intercalating agent. This paper presents results of a phase II clinical study of AMF in disseminated malignant melanoma. Twenty patients, ...
Synthesis of normal and variant human hypoxanthine-guanine phosphoribosyltransferase in Escherichia coli
(Elsevier, 1993-01-30)
Naturally occurring mutations in hypoxanthine-guanine phosphoribosyltransferase (HPRT) have been identified by amino acid sequencing, cDNA cloning, and direct nucleotide sequencing of PCR-amplified transcripts. To determine ...
Effects of serum and insulin-like growth factors on human neuroblastoma cell growth
(Elsevier, 1993-10-20)
Insulin-like growth factors (IGF-I and IGF-II) are mitogenic polypeptides expressed in both developing and adult tissues. To examine the effects of IGFs on neuronal growth, we used SH-SY5Y neuroblastoma cells as an in vitro ...
Thermodynamic properties of silicides. II. Heat capacity at temperatures T from 5.9 K to 341 K and derived thermodynamic properties to T = 1200 K of tungsten disilicide: WSi2.06
(Elsevier, 1993-11)
The heat capacity of tungsten disilicide WSi2.06 was measured over the temperature range 5.9T/K)-2[middle dot]mol-1. For the lattice, the Debye characteristic temperature [Theta]CD = (317.8+/-3.3) K. From our results, the ...
Shape-selective separation of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons by reversed-phase liquid chromatography on tetraphenylporphyrin-based stationary phases
(Elsevier, 1993-07-02)
The reversed-phase chromatographic behavior of planar and non-planar polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) is investigated on tetraphenylporphyrin and two metallotetraphenylporphyrin [Sn(IV), In(III)] bonded stationary ...
Purification of Dihydroxyacetone Phosphate Acyltransferase from Guinea Pig Liver Peroxisomes
(Elsevier, 1993-01)
Dihydroxyacetone phosphate acyltransferase (EC 2.3.1.42), a peroxisomal enzyme which initiates the biosynthesis of glycerolipids (especially the ether-linked glycerolipids) in higher eukaryotes, has been purified by over ...
Thermodynamics of alkali alkanoates IX. Heat capacity and thermodynamic functions of lithium 2-methylpropanoate at temperatures from 7 K to 535 K
(Elsevier, 1993-10)
The heat capacity of lithium 2-methylpropanoate was measured by equilibrium adiabatic calorimetry at temperatures, T from 7 K up to 350 K and by d.s.c. from 330 K through melting to 535 K. A small diffuse hump was observed ...
Physical location of the human immunoglobulin lambda-like genes, 14.1, 16.1, and 16.2
(Springer-Verlag, 1993-09)
The human immunoglobulin lambda-like ( IGLL ) genes, which are homologous to the human immunoglobulin lambda ( IGL ) light chain genes, are expressed only in pre-B cells and are involved in B cell development. Three IGLL ...
