Of mice, men, and hormones.
Incidence of cardiovascular disease is consistently greater in men than in women during the first five decades of life.1 Because this gender disparity begins early in life, it is likely that a combination of genetic, environmental (possibly intrauterine) factors, and actions of sex-specific hormones contribute to the disease process (see Nagel and vom Saal2). However, most research has focused ...
متن کاملIrradiation of Mice and Men
A great responsibility is borne by those who determine what level of radiation exposure to man can be regarded as permissable in modern civilization. A value set too high could lead to an excessive load of deleterious mutations in the human genome that we all carry, while a value set too low will prove costly and time consuming to maintain. This book is written by Dr. John F. Loutit who played ...
متن کاملTolerance: of mice and men.
Little is known about the effect of an individual's immune history on his or her response to an allogeneic tissue transplant. An important study now reveals that individuals harboring virally-induced memory T cells that are cross reactive with donor alloantigen are resistant to conventional strategies designed to induce transplant tolerance.
متن کاملFOXP3: of mice and men.
The immune system has evolved mechanisms to recognize and eliminate threats, as well as to protect against self-destruction. Tolerance to self-antigens is generated through two fundamental mechanisms: (a) elimination of self-reactive cells in the thymus during selection and (b) generation of a variety of peripheral regulatory cells to control self-reactive cells that escape the thymus. It is be...
متن کاملOf Yeast, Mice, and Men
A typical eukaryotic cell contains many types of membrane organelles with characteristic distributions within the cyto-plasm. This distribution is facilitated in part by the organelle binding to a specific subset of motor proteins. Bound motors then transport the organelles to their proper destinations in the cell by moving them along microtubules or actin filaments. A key question of modern ce...
