Molecular Physiology of Urate Transport
Physiology, 2005Humans excrete uric acid as the final breakdown product of unwanted purine nucleotides. Urate scavenges potential harmful radicals in our body. However, in conjunction with genetic or environmental (especially dietary) factors, urate may cause gout, nephrolitiasis, hypertension, and vascular disease.

Molecular Physiology of Glucose Transporters
Diabetes Care, 1990Molecular cloning of cDNA encoding the human erythrocyte facilitated-diffusion glucose transporter (GT) has elucidated its structure and has permitted a careful study of its tissue distribution and of its involvement in processes such as insulin-stimulated glucose uptake by adipose cells or transformation-induced increase in glucose metabolism.

Molecular physiology of cardiac regeneration
Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences, 2010Heart disease is the leading cause of death in the industrialized world. This is partially attributed to the inability of cardiomyocytes to divide in a significant manner, and therefore the heart responds to injury through scar formation. One of the challenges of modern medicine is to develop novel therapeutic strategies to facilitate regeneration of ...

A Physiological and Molecular Analysis of the GenusNicotiana
Molecular Phylogenetics and Evolution, 1997An analysis of the evolution of the genus Nicotiana was carried out with physiological and molecular tools. The capacity of explants from seedlings of several species of Nicotiana to differentiate roots or shoots or to habituate was used to ascertain whether the in vitro behavior of species has a nonrandom distribution in the genus.

Molecular sensory physiology ofEuglena
Die Naturwissenschaften, 1976After a short description of the motile physiology of Euglena gracilis the responses to light stimulation are analyzed and a new nomenclature is proposed concerning flagellar motility variations. A discussion follows about the characteristics of the photoreceptive system of Euglena and about the flavinic nature of its phototactic pigments.

Molecular Physiology of the Medullary Collecting Duct
Comprehensive Physiology, 2011Abstract The mammalian kidney is responsible for a multitude of homeostatic functions, which are mediated by both structural and functional diversity along the renal tubule. In this article, we focus on the major functions of the terminal portion of the renal tubule, the medullary collecting duct system.

Molecular physiology of anion channels
Current Opinion in Cell Biology, 1994Anion channels have diverse functions, ranging from regulation of cell volume to transepithelial transport and control of excitability. Three well established structural classes of plasma membrane chloride channels now exist: the ligand-gated chloride channels, the cAMP-stimulated cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator channel, and the ...

Erythropoietin: physiology and molecular mechanisms
Heart Failure Reviews, 2008Erythropoietin, the primary regulator of erythropoiesis, is produced by the kidney and levels vary inversely with oxygen availability. Hypoxia-inducible factor-1 (HIF-1), a major transcriptional regulator of several hypoxia-sensitive genes, including erythropoietin, is functionally deactivated by oxygen in a reaction catalyzed by prolyl hydroxylase ...

Physiological and Molecular Aspects of Cobalamin Transport
2011Minute doses of a complex cofactor cobalamin (Cbl, vitamin B12) are essential for metabolism. The nutritional chain for humans includes: (1) production of Cbl by bacteria in the intestinal tract of herbivores; (2) accumulation of the absorbed Cbl in animal tissues; (3) consumption of food of animal origin.
