By yeast two-hybrid screening using the calcium-binding protein ALG-2 as bait a new target of ALG-2 was identified, the RNA-binding protein RBM22. In order to confirm these interactions in vivo we prepared fluorescent constructs by using the monomeric red fluorescent protein to label ALG-2 and the enhanced green fluorescent protein to label RBM22. Confocal microscopy of NIH 3T3 cells transfecte...

A series of 3 experiments were conducted to determine the in vitro and in situ disappearance, preference, and performance of steers consuming increasing concentrations of a novel feedstuff called algae meal (ALG). In Exp. 1 and 2, 3 ruminally cannulated steers (998 ± 103 kg BW) and 4 treatments were utilized: a dry-rolled corn-based diet (CON), or 15% ALG (A15), 30% ALG (A30), or 45% ALG (A45) ...

Antithymocyte globulin (ATG) and antilymphocyte globulin (ALG) are effective therapies in aplastic anemia; their mechanism of action is undefined. We assayed multiple properties of ATG and ALG to address the biological and immunological bases for differences between ATG and ALG and lot variation. In addition, we studied a lot reported to be inactive in an American clinical trial; however in ret...

Peflin, a newly identified 30-kDa Ca(2+)-binding protein, belongs to the penta-EF-hand (PEF) protein family, which includes the calpain small subunit, sorcin, grancalcin, and ALG-2 (apoptosis-linked gene 2). We prepared a monoclonal antibody against human peflin. The antibody immunoprecipitated a 22-kDa protein as well as the 30-kDa protein from the lysate of Jurkat cells. Western blotting of t...

Connections between Algebraic Logic and (ordinary) Logic. Algebraic counterpart of model theoretic semantics, algebraic counterpart of proof theory, and their connections. The class Alg(L) of algebras associated to any logic L. Equivalence theorems stating that L has a certain logical property iff Alg(L) has a certain algebraic property. (E.g. L admits a strongly complete Hilbertstyle inference...

Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-γ (PPARγ) agonists like pioglitazone (PGZ) are effective antidiabetic drugs, but they induce fluid retention and body weight (BW) gain. Dipeptidyl peptidase IV (DPP IV) inhibitors are antidiabetic drugs that enhance renal Na(+) and fluid excretion. Therefore, we examined whether the DPP IV inhibitor alogliptin (ALG) ameliorates PGZ-induced BW gain. Mal...
