متن کاملDeprenyl Can Mediate Neuronal Protection Rather than Neuronal Rescue
Background and Objective: Deprenyl is a drug for the treatment of Parkinson’s disease, where the dopaminergic neurons are the target of this drug. Several reports also documented that deprenyl has an effect on the sensory and motor neurons. There are some reports about the mode of action of deprenyl on m...
متن کاملSpatial Patterning of Metabolism by Mitochondria, Oxygen, and Energy Sinks in a Model Cytoplasm
Metabolite gradients might guide mitochondrial localization in cells and angiogenesis in tissues. It is unclear whether they can exist in single cells, because the length scale of most cells is small compared to the expected diffusion times of metabolites. For investigation of metabolic gradients, we need experimental systems in which spatial patterns of metabolism can be systematically measure...
متن کاملBiological sensors: More than one way to sense oxygen
Recently determined structures of the oxygen-sensing heme domain of the bacterial protein FixL have revealed a new binding environment and signal transduction mechanism for heme; they have also provided new insights into the diverse 'PAS' domain superfamily.
متن کاملPerihemorheology rather than parahemorheology.
However, the use of the term parahemorheology has been criticized, because the prefix para implies that the rheology of fluids and structures in the perivascular spaces is secondary and less important than that of the vessel-blood organ. It is also imprecise, once it does not refer to the fluids and structures being considered. By contrast, the term perihemorheology implies the rheology of flui...
