Amino acid sequence elucidation of human acrosin-trypsin inhibitor (HUSI-II) reveals that Kazal-type proteinase inhibitors are structurally related to β-subunits of glycoprotein hormones [PDF]
, 1990 The amino acid sequence of the acrosin-trypsin inhibitor HUSI-II from human seminal plasma is presented which unequivocally identifies HUSI-II as being of Kazal-type.

A Requirement for Fatty Acid Oxidation in the Hormone-Induced Meiotic Maturation of Mouse Oocytes [PDF]
, 2013 We have previously shown that fatty acid oxidation (FAO) is required for AMP-activated protein kinase (PRKA)-induced maturation in vitro. In the present study, we have further investigated the role of this metabolic pathway in hormone-induced meiotic ...

Thyroid-Stimulating Activity and Chorionic Gonadotropin [PDF]
Journal of Clinical Investigation, 1974 The nature of the substance with thyroid-stimulating activity (TSA) present in human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) prepared from pregnancy urine was investigated. In the mouse thyrotropin bioassay, the characteristic maximum of blood radioactivity obtained with the TSA in hCG preparations occurred after that obtained with pituitary thyrotropin (hTSH ...

Developmental Dynamics, EarlyView.Abstract Background Freshwater salinization is an emerging stressor in amphibian populations, and embryonic stages are most vulnerable. To better understand the variation in embryonic osmoregulation, we challenged embryos of two phylogenetically diverse anuran species, Xenopus laevis and Lithobates (Rana) sylvaticus, along a gradient of non‐lethal ...

Adhesive and degradative properties of human placental cytotrophoblast cells in vitro. [PDF]
, 1989 Human fetal development depends on the embryo rapidly gaining access to the maternal circulation. The trophoblast cells that form the fetal portion of the human placenta have solved this problem by transiently exhibiting certain tumor-like properties ...
