Positive Chemotactic Flasklike Colloidal Motors Propelled by Rotary FoF1-ATP Synthases
Living microorganisms can perform directed migration for foraging in response to a chemoattractant gradient. We report a biomimetic strategy that rotary FoF1-ATPase (adenosine triphosphatase)-propelled flasklike colloidal motors exhibit positive ...

Ultrastructural localization of adenosine triphosphatase activity in lymphocytes activated in vitro by phytohaemagglutinin [PDF]
The ultrastructural localization of Ca 2+, Mg2+ -activated ATPase was studied in phytohaemagglutinin activated lymphocytes and in normal unstimulated lymphocytes. Cells, fixed in paraformaldehyde-glutaraldehyde, were incubated in a medium containing 3 mM

ABSTRACT Aim To evaluate the impact of multiple apical periodontitis (AP) on the expression of TLR4/NF‐κB pathway components, proinflammatory cytokine levels, and development of hepatic injuries in rats with and without chronic alcohol consumption. Methodology Thirty‐two rats were assigned to four groups (n = 8): Control, AP, Alcohol, and Alcohol+AP ...

The extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) pathway: a potential therapeutic target in hypertension [PDF]
Hypertension is a risk factor for myocardial infarction, stroke, renal failure, heart failure, and peripheral vascular disease. One feature of hypertension is a hyperresponsiveness to contractile agents, and inhibition of vasoconstriction forms the basis

Pathological Roles of Astrocytes in Traumatic Brain Injury
TBI induces intrinsic astrocytic changes, including reactive astrogliosis, A1 and A2 polarization, ion channels activation, pathological edema, oxidative stress, and metabolic dysregulation. These injury‐responsive astrocytes regulate neuroinflammation and tissue remodeling through dynamic crosstalk with microglia, macrophages, vascular endothelial ...

Reassessing the Mechanisms of PLN-R14del Cardiomyopathy
Summary: The phospholamban (PLN) pathogenic gene variant, p.Arg14del (PLN-R14del), can lead to dilated and arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy, resulting in heart failure.

Modulation of the asymmetry of sea urchin sperm flagellar bending by calmodulin [PDF]
Sea urchin spermatozoa demembranated with Triton X-100 in the presence of EGTA, termed potentially asymmetric, generate asymmetric bending waves in reactivation solutions containing EGTA. After they are converted to the potentially symmetric condition by

Assignment of the Human and Mouse Prion Protein Genes to Homologous Chromosomes [PDF]
Purified preparations of scrapie prions contain one major macromolecule, designated prion protein (PrP). Genes encoding PrP are found in normal animals and humans but not within the infectious particles.

Crystal Structure of Prp5p Reveals Interdomain Interactions that Impact Spliceosome Assembly
The DEAD-box adenosine triphosphatase (ATPase) Prp5p facilitates U2 small nuclear ribonucleoprotein particle (snRNP) binding to the intron branch site region during spliceosome assembly. We present crystal structures of S.
