Studies of Posttranslational Modifications in Spiny Dogfish Myelin Basic Protein
(Kluwer Academic Publishers-Plenum Publishers; Plenum Publishing Corporation ; Springer Science+Business Media, 2001-05)
The objective of this investigation was to determine whether nonmammalian myelin basic protein contained charge isomers resulting from extensive posttranslational modifications as seen in mammalian MBP. Four charge isomer ...
Α-Lactosylceramide as a Novel “Sugar-Capped” CD1d Ligand for Natural Killer T Cells: Biased Cytokine Profile and Therapeutic Activities
(WILEY-VCH Verlag, 2008-06-16)
The invariant natural killer T cells (iNKT) cells have emerged as an important regulator of immunity to infection, cancer, and autoimmune diseases. They can be activated by glycolipids that bind to CD1d. The most effective ...
Galanin inhibits rat pancreatic amylase release via cholinergic suppression
(Elsevier, 1992)
The effects of galanin on pancreatic exocrine function were examined using rat pancreatic tissues. In anesthetized rats, galanin (40 [mu]g/kg/h) decreased amylase secretion stimulated by 2-deoxy glucose (5.8 +/- 0.1 vs. ...
Proteomic analysis of estrogen response of premalignant human breast cells using a 2-D liquid separation/mass mapping technique
(WILEY-VCH Verlag, 2006-07)
A 2-D liquid-phase separation method based on chromatofocusing and nonporous silica RP-HPLC followed by ESI-TOF-MS was used to analyze proteins in whole cell lysates from estrogen-treated and untreated premalignant, ...
Large unit red cell cryopreservation with hydroxyethyl starch
(Elsevier, 1976-10)
Full units of red blood cells frozen with 14% hydroxyethyl starch (HES) yield cell recoveries near 97% and saline stabilities greater than 80%. Potassium leaves the cells during the freeze-thaw cycle and increases the ...
