Histidine decarboxylase in the stomach of the rat
Journal of Pharmacy and Pharmacology, 1967 Abstract Two enzymes capable of decarboxylating l-histidine in vitro have been identified in rat and mouse stomach; one, located in the fundic portion, shows maximal activity at a pH value of 5.6, whilst the other, in the pyloric portion, requires a pH of 7.6 for optimal activity.

Bottom-Up versus Top-Down Induction of Sleep by Zolpidem Acting on Histaminergic and Neocortex Neurons [PDF]
, 2016 Zolpidem, a GABAA receptor-positive modulator, is the gold-standard drug for treating insomnia. Zolpidem prolongs IPSCs to decrease sleep latency and increase sleep time, effects that depend on α2 and/or α3 subunit-containing receptors.

Localization and function of neurosecretory protein GM, a novel small secretory protein, in the chicken hypothalamus. [PDF]
, 2018 Recently, we discovered a novel cDNA encoding the precursor of a small secretory protein, neurosecretory protein GL (NPGL), in the hypothalamic infundibulum of chickens. NPGL plays an important role in the regulation of growth and feeding.

Theory of cooperation in a micro-organismal snow-drift game [PDF]
, 2010 We present a mean field model for the phase diagram of a community of micro-organisms, interacting through their metabolism so that they are, in effect, engaging in a cooperative social game. We show that as a function of the concentration of the nutrients glucose and histidine, the community undergoes a phase transition separating a state in which one

Advanced Science, EarlyView.The electron transfer flux in CPR‐P450 catalytic system is systematically engineered through: i) enhancing electron transfer rate by redesigning the putative electron transfer pathway of CPR; ii) improving electron‐receiving rate by evolving the heme domain of tryptophan‐5‐hydroxylase (T5H); iii) enlarging electron supply by fine‐tuning NADPH synthesis.
