The Behaviour of Ions in Narrow Water-Filled PoresBioscience Reports - Tập 18 - Trang 313-327 - 1998
D. T. Edmonds
Today, the equilibrium behavior of ions in solution may be predicted with some confidence, essentially because rapid ionic diffusion over small distances ensures homogeneity throughout the solution. Equilibrium concepts such as ionic strength and pH apply. However, when attempting to understand the behavior of ions passing rapidly through narrow pores such as ion channels, no such equilibrium stat...... hiện toàn bộ
MicroRNA 486-3P as a stability marker in acute coronary syndromeBioscience Reports - Tập 36 Số 3 - 2016
Tianling Wei, Lasse Folkersen, Ewa Ehrenborg, Anders Gabrielsen
Easily accessible biomarkers are needed to diagnose cardiovascular disease precisely—particularly, to distinguish between disease subtypes that are encountered in clinical practice. Per the hypothesis that plasma miRNA is valuable for this purpose, we performed complete transcriptional profiling of an miRNA discovery-set in 14 samples: three patients with ST-elevated acute myocardial infar...... hiện toàn bộ
Acetoacetyl-CoA ligase activity in the isolated rat hepatocyte: Effects of 25-hydroxycholesterol and high density lipoproteinBioscience Reports - Tập 7 - Trang 217-224 - 1987
Gail A. Wong, James D. Bergstrom, John Edmond
The activity of acetoacetyl-CoA (AcAc-CoA) ligase (E.C.6.2.1.16) in hepatocytes from rats was shown to be the same as the activity in homogenates of their livers. In hepatocytes treated with 25-hydroxycholesterol, AcAc-CoA ligase, 3-hydroxy-3-methyl-glutaryl-CoA (HMG-CoA) reductase and rates of sterol synthesis were substantially decreased. Hepatocytes treated with high density lipoprotein (HDL) e...... hiện toàn bộ
Effects of mitogenic agents upon glucocorticoid action in human tonsillar T-lymphocytesBioscience Reports - Tập 10 Số 1 - Trang 69-72 - 1990
Soner Altiok, Engin Bermek
The treatment of human tonsillar T-lymphocytes with 4-phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA), resulted in about two fold increase in glucocorticoid receptor (GR) number, without any significant change in the receptor affinity. This increase disappeared in the presence of cycloheximide.Alone, PMA and calcium inophore A23187 did not affect, but together stimulated, like phyto...... hiện toàn bộ
Heparin inhibits specific glycosyltransferase activities in interleukin 2 activated murine T cellsBioscience Reports - - 1988
Gerald A. Schwarting, Anna Gajewski
In order to better understand the role of cell surface glycolipids in T lymphocyte activation, heparin was used to simultaneously modulate the expression of glycolipids and the lytic capacity of lymphocytes activated by interleukin-2. Results presented here show that heparin added at the start of a 3 day culture inhibited the formation of lymphokine activated killer cells by up to 50%. Hep...... hiện toàn bộ
Novel application of quantitative immunoassays for screening seed globulins of cowpea varietiesBioscience Reports - Tập 5 - Trang 673-681 - 1985
M. R. Mawal, S. A. Ranade, Y. R. Mawal, S. N. Ranadive, A. Bhattacharya, P. K. Ranjekar
Using antibodies raised in rabbits, radioimmunoassay (RIA) and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) are standardized for cowpea (var. Pusa Barsati) seed globulins. The RIA, when used to screen three stages of seed development, reveals that maximum globulins are detected at 28 days after flowering. When three different varieties of cowpea are assayed for their globulin content by RIA and ELISA...... hiện toàn bộ

Characterization of a membrane-specific tubulin isoform by peptide mappingBioscience Reports - Tập 6 - Trang 913-919 - 1986
Alan J. Hargreaves, Jesus Avila
A membrane-specific tubulin-like protein, found in preparations of synaptic plasma membranes and brain mitochondria, was analyzed by chemical and proteolytic peptide mapping to determine which part of the molecule was different from cytoplasmic tubulin. The membrane polypeptide was identical to alpha tubulin in the first two-thirds of the molecule containing the amino terminal, as found by peptide...... hiện toàn bộ
