BACKGROUND Sugar-sweetened beverages are a target for reduction in the 2010 Dietary Guidelines for Americans. Concerns have been raised about sugar-sweetened beverages purchased with Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) benefits. PURPOSE This paper describes purchases of non-alcoholic refreshment beverages among participants in the U.S. Department of Agriculture's Special Suppleme...

The synaptosomal-associated protein of 25 kDa (SNAP-25) is expressed in neurons and endocrine cells. It has been shown to play an important role in the release mechanism of neurotransmitters and peptide hormones, including insulin. Thus, when insulin-secreting cells are permeabilized and treated with botulinum neurotoxin E (BoNT/E), SNAP-25 is hydrolyzed, and insulin secretion is inhibited. Rec...

Activation of phosphokinase C (PKC) can increase transmitter release at sensory-motor neuron synapses in Aplysia, but the target of PKC phosphorylation has not been determined. One putative target of PKC at synapses is the synaptosomal-associated protein of 25 kDa (SNAP-25), a member of the SNARE protein complex implicated in synaptic vesicle docking and fusion. To determine whether PKC regulat...

 Abstract Background: Clinical Risk Index of Babies (CRIB), Score for Neonatal Acute Physiology (SNAP), an update of the Clinical Risk Index for Babies score (CRIB II) and Score for Neonatal Acute Physiology - Perinatal Extension (SNAP-PE) are scoring devices developed in neonatal intensive care units. This study reviewed these scoring systems in critically ill neonates to determine how well th...

SNAP-25 is a component of the SNARE complex implicated in synaptic vesicle exocytosis. In this study, we demonstrate that hippocampal GABAergic synapses, both in culture and in brain, lack SNAP-25 and are resistant to the action of botulinum toxins type A and E, which cleave this SNARE protein. Relative to glutamatergic neurons, which express SNAP-25, GABAergic cells were characterized by a hig...

The soluble N-ethylmaleimide-sensitive factor attachment protein of 25 kDa (SNAP-25) plays an important role in vesicle trafficking. Together with vesicle-associated membrane protein-2 (VAMP-2) and syntaxin, SNAP-25 forms a ternary complex implicated in docking and fusion of secretory vesicles with the plasma membrane during exocytosis. These so-called SNARE proteins are believed to regulate tu...

Using the yeast two-hybrid system with syntaxin-1A as bait, we isolated soluble NSF attachment protein (SNAP)-29 from a human brain cDNA library. Synaptosomal fractionation and immunocytochemical staining of hippocampal neurons in culture showed that SNAP-29 is present at synapses and is predominantly associated with synaptic vesicles. The interaction of SNAP-29 with syntaxin-1 was further conf...
