Novel insights into the function and regulation of group X secretory phospholipase A\u3csub\u3e2\u3c/sub\u3e [PDF]
Group X secretory phospholipase A2 (GX sPLA2) hydrolyzes membrane phospholipids producing free fatty acids and lysophospholipids. Previous studies from our lab suggest that mice with targeted deletion of GX sPLA2 (GX KO) have increased age-related weight

ABSTRACT Loss of effective arterial blood volume, secondary hyperaldosteronism, adrenergic activation and nonosmotic hypersecretion of vasopressin induce sodium and water retention in cirrhotic patients with ascites. The mechanisms of sodium retention that precede ascites formation remain elusive.

ABSTRACT The invention of a therapeutic begins by characterizing features that differentiate healthy versus diseased states; this often presents as changes in the concentration of an analyte. Examples include elevated blood glucose in diabetes, high cholesterol in heart disease, and protein aggregation in neurodegeneration.

Landscape of rare‐allele variants in cultivated and wild soybean genomes
Abstract Rare‐allele variants are important for crop improvement because they can be linked to important traits. However, genome‐wide distribution and annotation of rare‐allele variants have not been reported. We analyzed sequencing data from 1556 soybean accessions and found 6,533,419 rare‐allele variants in Glycine max and 941,274 in Glycine soja ...

Effects of Age and Retinal Degeneration on the Expression of Subtilisin-like Proprotein Convertases in the Visual Cortex of Mice [PDF]
Postnatal development of the visual cortex is a complex process that involves a number of molecules like growth factors, neuropeptides and cholesterol. Neurotrophins, like NGF, BDNF, NT-3, and NT-4, which are synthesized as precursors, also play a very ...

Abstract Aims [D3,G40,K41.C16 diacid]exendin‐4 (acyl‐ExD3) and [F1,G40,K41.C16 diacid]exendin‐4 (acyl‐ExF1) are oppositely biased glucagon‐like peptide‐1 (GLP‐1) receptor agonists that preferentially promote β‐arrestin recruitment or G protein‐induced signalling, respectively.
