Frontiers in Psychiatry, 2020 Rats infected with the protozoan Toxoplasma gondii exhibit a reduced aversion to cat odor. This behavioral change is thought to increase trophic transmission of the parasite. Infected male rats also show a greater testicular synthesis of testosterone and

Release of vasopressin from isolated permeabilized neurosecretory nerve terminals is blocked by the light chain of botulinum A toxin [PDF]
, 1990 The intracellular action on exocytosis of botulinim A toxin and constituent chains was studied using permeabilized isolated nerve endings from the rat neural lobe. The release of the neuropeptide vasopressin was measured by radioimmunoassay.

Role of protein kinase C in inhibition of renin release caused by vasoconstrictors [PDF]
, 1986 It was the aim of the present study to get insight into some of the intracellular mechanisms by which the vasoconstrictor hormones angiotensin II (ANG II), arginine vasopressin (AVP), and norepinephrine (NE) inhibit renin release from renal ...

SAAP‐148 Oligomerizes into a Hexamer Forming a Hydrophobic Inner Core
ChemBioChem, EarlyView.The highly cationic and hydrophobic antimicrobial peptide SAP‐148 effectively eradicates multidrug‐resistant bacteria, persistent cells, and biofilms without inducing resistance. Its efficiency is likely due to its ability to disrupt bacterial membranes as an oligomer, forming a stable alpha‐helical hexameric bundle with three parallel dimers that ...

Claws, Disorder, and Conformational Dynamics of the C-terminal Region of Human Desmoplakin [PDF]
The Journal of Physical Chemistry B (2016), 2016 Multicellular organisms consist of cells that interact via elaborate adhesion complexes. Desmosomes are membrane-associated adhesion complexes that mechanically tether the cytoskeletal intermediate filaments (IFs) between two adjacent cells, creating a network of tough connections in tissues such as skin and heart.

Neurohypophysial hormones of the 1-month-old bovine fetus: Absence of vasotocin during mammal development [PDF]
, 1988 The neurohypophysial hormones of the 1-month-old bovine fetus have been identified by their positions in ion-exchange chromatography and their retention times in high-pressure reverse-phase partition chromatography. Arginine vasopressin and oxytocin have

ChemBioChem, EarlyView.Crotonaldehyde‐derived DNA lesions are reported in patients after ethanol exposure, which implies that crotonaldehyde is produced after ethanol ingestion. Here, we show that proline amide, which mimics N‐terminal proline residues on human proteins, can catalyze crotonaldehyde formation from the ethanol metabolite acetaldehyde under physiologically ...
