A VIP-like peptide co-occurs with substance P and enkephalin in cholinergic preganglionic terminals of the avian ciliary ganglion
(Elsevier, 1987-07-09)
Using single-label and double-label immunohistochemical techniques, many of the substance P-enkephalin containing preganglionic terminals of the avian ciliary ganglion were found to also contain a VIP-like peptide. Since ...
Hormonal regulation of plasminogen activator in rat hepatoma cells
(Kluwer Academic Publishers; Martinus Nijhoff Publishers ; Springer Science+Business Media, 1983-03)
Plasminogen activators are membrane-associated, arginine-specific serine proteases which convert the inactive plasma zymogen plasminogen to plasmin, an active, broad-spectrum serine protease. Plasmin, the major fibrinolytic ...
Field investigations of the performance of air bag deployments in frontal collisions
(Elsevier, 1993-12)
This paper documents field investigations of "air bag" crashes selected from a large group of air bag crashes in file at the University of Michigan Transportation Research Institute (UMTRI). A full range of crashes are ...
Hepatic microsomal epoxidation of bromobenzene to phenols and its toxicological implication
(Elsevier, 1979-09-15)
In vitro microsomal hepatic epoxidation of bromobenzene in rats and mice is presented in this study. Formation of o-bromophenol via bromobenzene-2,3-epoxide and p-bromophenol via bromobenzene-3,4-epoxide was assayed ...
Characterization of gastrin amidation in the rat and porcine antrum: comparison with the pituitary
(Elsevier, 1990-04-24)
The formation of biologically active gastrin from glycine-extended processing intermediates occurs via the action of a peptide [alpha]-amidating enzyme. The observation that gastrin exists primarily as unamidated precursors ...
The effect of limbic damage on the retention and performance of a runway response
(Elsevier, 1966-07)
Rats were trained to run a linear runway while hungry for food. Then they were tested for retention, continued performance levels, and extinction after recovery from bilateral damage of the hippocampus, the septal area, ...
The specificity and significance of the inhibition of Fc receptor binding by anti H-2 sera
(Springer-Verlag; Springer-Verlag New York Inc., 1975-12)
The possibility that Ia antigens are unique among H-2 antigens in their relationship to the Fc receptor was investigated in an EA rosette assay. Antibody specific for antigens in various regions of the H-2 complex was ...
