T hE fusion pore is the molecular structure that transiently connects the lumens of two membrane compartments during their fusion. The fusion of membrane compartments occurs in all cells because intracellular trafficking of vesicles in both endocytic and exocytic pathways and in consti-tutive exocytosis are ubiquitous cellular processes. In addition, many other cells including endocrine, exocri...

Secretory cells of many types store their secretions in membrane-bound granules, the contents of which are released, on demand, by exocytosis. During exocytosis the granule and plasma membrane must fuse. Electron microscopic studies of chemically fixed tissues (Palade & Bruns, 1968; Tandler & Poulsen, 1976; Lawson et al., 1977; Pinto da Silva & Nogueira, 1977) suggest that membrane fusion is in...

Since 1951, intra-articular hydrocortisone has been used in the treatment of arthritis, particularly rheumatoid arthritis of the larger joints (Hollander, Brown, Jessar, and Brown, 1957). Most patients derive subjective improvement lasting a few days up to weeks, and, as this is frequently of value in the treatment programme, it has been used extensively. Only recently has the suggestion been m...

A method combining solid-phase extraction and reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography is described for the isolation of two key metabolites in the limonoid biosynthetic pathway critical to citrus quality. Potassium salts of limonoate A-ring lactone and nomilinoate A-ring lactone were isolated from young Chandler pummelo seedlings and characterized on the basis of proton and carbon...
