FGF-2 Induces Neuronal Death through Upregulation of System xc- [PDF]
The cystine/glutamate antiporter (system xc-) transports cystine into cell in exchange for glutamate. Fibroblast growth factor-2 (FGF-2) upregulates system xc- selectively on astrocytes, which leads to increased cystine uptake, the substrate for ...

Inhibition of acetylpolyamine and spermine oxidases by the polyamine analogue chlorhexidine [PDF]
""Acetylpolyamine and spermine oxidases are involved in the catabolism of polyamines. The discovery of selective. inhibitors of these enzymes represents an important tool for the development of novel anti-neoplastic drugs. Here, a.

All-or-none switching of transcriptional activity on single DNA molecules caused by a discrete conformational transition [PDF]
Recently, it has been confirmed that long duplex DNA molecules with sizes larger than several tens of kilo-base pairs (kbp), exhibit a discrete conformational transition from an elongated coil state to a compact globule state upon the addition of various
