Suppression of Raf-1 kinase activity and MAP kinase signalling by RKIP [PDF]
Raf-1 phosphorylates and activates MEK-1, a kinase that activates the extracellular signal regulated kinases (ERK). This kinase cascade controls the proliferation and differentiation of different cell types.

Microinjection of Xenopus Laevis Oocytes [PDF]
Microinjection of Xenopus laevis oocytes followed by thin-sectioning electron microscopy (EM) is an excellent system for studying nucleocytoplasmic transport. Because of its large nucleus and high density of nuclear pore complexes (NPCs), nuclear transport can be easily visualized in the Xenopus oocyte.

Irisin evokes bradycardia by activating cardiac-projecting neurons of nucleus ambiguus. [PDF]
Irisin is a newly identified hormone induced in muscle and adipose tissues by physical activity. This protein and its encoding gene have been identified in the brain; in addition, the precursor for irisin, FNDC5, can cross the blood-brain barrier.

Copper-containing mesoporous bioactive glass promotes angiogenesis in an in vivo zebrafish model [PDF]
The osteogenic and angiogenic responses of organisms to the ionic products of degradation of bioactive glasses (BGs) are being intensively investigated. The promotion of angiogenesis by copper (Cu) has been known for more than three decades. This element

Optimization of Existing RNA Visualization Methods Reveals Novel Dendritic mRNA Dynamics
Background: Spatial-temporal control of mRNA translation in dendrites is important for synaptic plasticity. In response to pre-synaptic stimuli, local mRNA translation can be rapidly triggered near stimulated synapses to supply the ...

Involvement of ras p2I in Neurotrophin-induced Response of Sensory, but Not Sympathetic Neurons [PDF]
Little is known about the signal transduction mechanisms involved in the response to neurotrophins and other neurotrophic factors in neurons, beyond the activation of the tyrosine kinase activity of the neurotrophin receptors belonging to the trk family.

Microinjection of mRNAs and Oligonucleotides [PDF]
Microinjecting lineage tracers into a single blastomere in the normal, intact embryo identifies the repertoire of cell types derived from it. In order to reveal the full developmental potential of that blastomere or identify the mechanisms by which its fate is determined, one needs to modify its gene expression under controlled experimental conditions.

Versatile Cell Penetrating Peptide for Multimodal CRISPR Gene Editing in Primary Stem Cells
CRISPR machinery in diverse molecular formats (DNA, RNA, and ribonucleic protein) is complexed into nanoparticles with the cell‐friendly arginine‐alanine‐leucine‐alanine (RALA) cell‐penetrating peptide. Nanoparticles are delivered to primary mesenchymal stem cells ex vivo or locally in vivo to facilitate multimodal CRISPR gene editing. This RALA‐CRISPR
