Comparison of independent screens on differentially vulnerable motor neurons reveals alpha-synuclein as a common modifier in motor neuron diseases [PDF]
The term "motor neuron disease" encompasses a spectrum of disorders in which motor neurons are the primary pathological target. However, in both patients and animal models of these diseases, not all motor neurons are equally vulnerable, in that while ...

International Union of Basic and Clinical Pharmacology: Differences and similarities between human and rodents concerning prostaglandin EP1-4 and IP receptors: Specific roles in pathophysiologic conditions [PDF]
Prostaglandins are derived from arachidonic acid metabolism through cyclooxygenase activities. Among prostaglandins (PGs), prostacyclin (PGI(2)) and PGE(2) are strongly involved in the regulation of homeostasis and main physiologic functions. In addition,
