Salt-Dependent Aggregation and Assembly of E coli-Expressed Ferritin
Ferritin, with the primary function of iron storage, is a nearly ubiquitous protein found in most living organisms. Our recent investigations suggest that ferritin can assemble nanoparticles. So we use ferritin as a novel type of delivery vehicle for recombinant epitope vaccines. And, we found that ferritin form nonnative aggregates depended sensitively on NaCl concentrations. Here, we report t...
متن کاملSingle stimulus color can modulate vection
In the present study, we investigated the effects of single color on forward and backward vection. The approaching or receding optical flow observed during forward or backward locomotion was simulated by using random dots with changing size, velocity, and disparity. The dots were presented on a black (Experiments 1 and 2) or white background (Experiment 3) in equiluminant colors; namely, white ...
متن کاملAssembly of silver Trigons into a buckyball-like Ag180 nanocage.
Buckminsterfullerene (C60) represents a perfect combination of geometry and molecular structural chemistry. It has inspired many creative ideas for building fullerene-like nanopolyhedra. These include other fullerenes, virus capsids, polyhedra based on DNA, and synthetic polynuclear metal clusters and cages. Indeed, the regular organization of large numbers of metal atoms into one highly comple...
متن کاملPhysical conditioning can modulate endothelium-dependent vasorelaxation in rabbits.
To investigate whether exercise training can modulate endothelium-dependent vasorelaxation, male New Zealand White rabbits were divided into either control or training groups. The training animals were trained on a treadmill with a running speed of 0.88 km/hr on a 0 degree grade for 10-60 minutes/day, 5 days/week for 8 weeks. After exercise training, the resting heart rate was lowered (p < 0.05...
متن کاملGlutamate Receptors in Nucleus Accumbens Can Modulate Canabinoid-Induced Antinociception in Rat’s Basolateral Amygdala
Introduction: It has been shown that administration of WIN55,212-2, a cannabinoid receptor agonist, into the basolateral amygdala (BLA), dose-dependently increases the thermal latency to withdrawal in the tail-.ick test and decreases pain related behaviors in both phases of the formalin test. Recent human and animal imaging data suggest that the nucleus accumbens (NAc) is an important neural su...
