A progesterone derivative linked to a stable phospholipid activates breast cancer cell response without leaving the cell membrane
(Springer Nature, 2024)
In hormone-responsive breast cancer cells, progesterone (P4) has been shown to act via its nuclear receptor (nPR), a ligand-activated transcription factor. A small fraction of progesterone receptor is ...
Muscarinic receptor blockade in ventral hippocampus and prelimbic cortex impairs memory for socially transmitted food preference
(Wiley, 2008)
Acetylcholine is involved in learning and memory and, particularly, in olfactory tasks, but reports on its specific role in consolidation processes are somewhat controversial. The present experiment ...
Regulation of actin dynamics during structural plasticity of dendritic spines: signaling messengers and actin-binding proteins
(Elsevier, 2018-09)
Activity-dependent plasticity of synaptic structure and function plays an essential role in neuronal development and in cognitive functions including learning and memory. The formation, maintenance and ...
Study on balance and postural control sccording to the stabilometry in indoor skydivers: a cross-sectional study
(MDPI, 2023)
Background: The wind tunnel is a compression cabin through which a stream of air rises homogeneously, generated by fans. To perform different acrobatics, indoor skydivers have to change their body ...
Effects of muscarinic receptor antagonism in the basolateral amygdala on two-way active avoidance
(Springer Nature, 2011)
The aim of the present study was to investigate whether the blockade of muscarinic receptors (mRs) in the basolateral amygdala (BLA), which receives important cholinergic inputs related to avoidance ...
Interexaminer reliability and validity of quantity of cervical mobility during online dynamic inspection
(MDPI, 2022)
Background: Physical therapists routinely measure range of motion (ROM) of cervical spine. The reliability of the cervical range of motion (CROM) device has been demonstrated in several studies, but ...
Single-molecule derivation of salt dependent base-pair free energies in DNA
(National Academy of Sciences, 2010)
Accurate knowledge of the thermodynamic properties of nucleic acids is crucial to predicting their structure and stability. To date most measurements of base-pair free energies in DNA are obtained in ...
New partners identified by mass spectrometry assay reveal functions of NCAM2 in neural cytoskeleton organization
(MDPI, 2021)
Neuronal cell adhesion molecule 2 (NCAM2) is a membrane protein with an important role in the morphological development of neurons. In the cortex and the hippocampus, NCAM2 is essential for proper ...
Multiple RNA recognition patterns during microRNA biogenesis in plants
(Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory Press, 2013)
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) derive from longer precursors with fold-back structures. While animal miRNA precursors have homogenous structures, plant precursors comprise a collection of fold-backs with variable ...
Multiple ion scaffold-based delivery platform for potential application in early stages of bone regeneration
(MDPI, 2021)
Bone has the intrinsic capacity to regenerate itself, as long as the damage is small, through the sequential stimulation of specific phases, such as angiogenesis followed by osteogenesis. However, when ...
