Active zone stability: insights from fly neuromuscular junction
Neural Regeneration Research, 2015 The presynaptic active zone is a dynamic structure that orchestrates regulated release of neurotransmitters. Developmental and aging processes, and changes in neuronal network activity can all modulate the number, size and composition of active zone and thereby synaptic efficacy.

Manometric Characteristics of the Human Ileocecal Junctional Zone
Gastroenterology, 1968 Summary Five patients with surgical procedures allowing ready access to the ileocecal junction were studied to ascertain the manometric characteristics of this area. A 4-cm zone of elevated pressure was consistently demonstrated at the junction of human ileum and colon. This zone showed a decline in pressure with ileal balloon distention and a rise in

Exclusion processes: short range correlations induced by adhesion and contact interactions [PDF]
, 2013 We analyze the out-of-equilibrium behavior of exclusion processes where agents interact with their nearest neighbors, and we study the short-range correlations which develop because of the exclusion and other contact interactions.

Differential localization of glutamate receptor subunits at the drosophila neuromuscular junction [PDF]
, 2004 The subunit composition of postsynaptic neurotransmitter receptors is a key determinant of synaptic physiology. Two glutamate receptor subunits, Drosophila glutamate receptor IIA (DGluRIIA) and DGluRIIB, are expressed at the Drosophila neuromuscular ...

Differential Expression Of Gap Junction mRNAs And Proteins In The Developing Murine Kidney And In Experimentally Induced Nephric Mesenchymes [PDF]
, 1992 The expression of three gap junction (GJ) proteins, alpha-1 (Cx43), beta-1 (Cx32), and beta-2 (Cx26), and their transcripts were examined during the ontogeny of the mouse and rat kidney. These proteins were expressed in two non-overlapping patterns.

Expression of the gene for main intrinsic polypeptide (MIP): separate spatial distributions of MIP and beta-crystallin gene transcripts in rat lens development [PDF]
, 1988 The main intrinsic polypeptide (MIP) is the major protein present in the lens fiber cell membrane and is the product of a gene which, as far as is known, is expressed only in the lens.
