Number of contractions to maintain mass and force of a denervated rat muscle
(Wiley Subscription Services, Inc., A Wiley Company, 2004-07)
Within 5 weeks, denervated extensor digitorum longus (EDL) muscles of rats lose 66% of mass, 91% of force, and 76% of fiber cross-sectional area (CSA). We previously determined the parameters of electrical stimulation for ...
Temporal pattern of C1q deposition after transient focal cerebral ischemia
(Wiley Subscription Services, Inc., A Wiley Company, 2006-04)
Recent studies have focused on elucidating the contribution of individual complement proteins to post-ischemic cellular injury. As the timing of complement activation and deposition after cerebral ischemia is not well ...
More TORC for the gluconeogenic engine
(Wiley Subscription Services, Inc., A Wiley Company, 2006-03)
Hepatic gluconeogenesis plays a key role in the maintenance of glucose homeostasis. The hormone glucagon stimulates this process, whereas insulin and adiponectin are inhibitory. In a recent report, Koo et al identify the ...
Sarcolemma-localized nNOS is required to maintain activity after mild exercise
(Nature Publishing Group, 2008-11-27)
Many neuromuscular conditions are characterized by an exaggerated exercise- induced fatigue response that is disproportionate to activity level. This fatigue is not necessarily correlated with greater central or peripheral ...
Neonatal diabetes mellitus with pancreatic agenesis in an infant with homozygous IPF-1 Pro63fsX60 mutation

Conditional ablation and recovery of forebrain neurogenesis in the mouse
(Wiley Subscription Services, Inc., A Wiley Company, 2009-06-20)
Forebrain neurogenesis persists throughout life in the rodent subventricular zone (SVZ) and hippocampal dentate gyrus (DG). Several strategies have been employed to eliminate adult neurogenesis and thereby determine whether ...
Peptide transporter 2 (PEPT2) expression in brain protects against 5-aminolevulinic acid neurotoxicity
(Blackwell Publishing Ltd, 2007-12)
N-acetyltransferase is not the rate-limiting enzyme of melatonin synthesis at night
(Munksgaard International PublishersBlackwell Publishing Ltd, 2005-08)
Glycogen synthase kinase-3 regulates mouse oocyte homologue segregation
(Wiley Subscription Services, Inc., A Wiley Company, 2003-01)
Intracellular regulation of oocyte meiosis is not completely understood. However, reversible phosphorylation, which involves serine/threonine protein kinases and phosphatases (PP), is an important mediator. Glycogen synthase ...
Modulation of Cardiac Performance by Motor Protein Gene Transfer
