background: the fc receptor like (fcrl) molecules belong to the immunoglobulin (ig) superfamily with potentially immunoregulatoryfunction. among the fcrl family fcrl2 and 4 are predominantly expressed on memory b cells and fcrl1 is a pan- b cell marker. to date, noligand has been identifid for the human fcrl1, 2 and 4 molecules.objectives: cloning, expression, purifiation and structural analysi...

the melanocortin-1 receptor mc1r is encoded by the extension locus, playing a fundamental role in the determination of coat color in a number of mammalian species. however, so far there has been no report regarding the single nucleotide polymorphisms (snps) of the mc1r promoter region and the potential association of its snps with coat color in sheep (ovis aries). throughout the present study, ...

introduction: epilepsy is a neural disorder in which abnormal plastic changes during short and long term periods lead to increased excitability of brain tissue. kindling is an animal model of epileptogenesis which results in changes of synaptic plasticity due to repetitive electrical or chemical sub-convulsive stimulations of the brain. lateral hypothalamus, as the main niche of orexin neurons ...

materials and methods: 32 new zealand rabbits were randomly divided into three groups: control group, high-cholesterol group and losartan group. the level of weights, serum lipid levels and inflammatory factors, such as il-6 and hs c-reactive protein were detected before the losartan intervention and two months after the losartan intervention respectively. the content of angii was detected on l...
