SHP-1 expression in avian mixed neural/glial cultures

SHP-1 expression in avian mixed neural/glial cultures.

The central nervous system response to injury includes astrocyte proliferation and hypertrophy as well as microglial activation and proliferation. However, not all glial cells enter the cell cycle following damage, and the mechanism that determines which glial cells will proliferate and which will remain quiescent has yet to be elucidated. Protein tyrosine phosphorylation has been shown to play...

Differential expression of SHP-1 in chronic myeloid leukemia.

The NF-kB regulates the SHP-1 expression in monocytes in congestive heart failure.

It has been shown that functional recovery of patients with acute congestive heart failure (ACHF) after treatment with conventional drugs (CD) is mediated by suppression of inflammation in peripheral blood mononuclear cells. Here, we analyzed gene expression profiles of monocytes from symptomatic ACHF patients (NYHA Class III-IV) before and after pharmacological treatment with CD. The treatment...

Mixed gaits in small avian terrestrial locomotion

Scientists have historically categorized gaits discretely (e.g. regular gaits such as walking, running). However, previous results suggest that animals such as birds might mix or regularly or stochastically switch between gaits while maintaining a steady locomotor speed. Here, we combined a novel and completely automated large-scale study (over one million frames) on motions of the center of ma...

Xenobiotic breakdown by mixed cultures.

Conclusion The interactions of methanogens with other organisms in natural habitats are various. At a metabolic level methanogens may compete for substrates with other bacteria and are involved in mutualistic interactions with non-methanogenic bacteria. Mutualism between methanogens and protozoa also occurs and, in addition, methanogens interact physically as episymbionts of rumen ciliates. Kno...
