Effect of calcium-modulating cyclophilin ligand on human immunodeficiency virus type 1 particle release and cell surface expression of Tetherin
(2009)
The HIV-1 accessory protein Vpu enhances virus particle release by counteracting a host factor that retains virions at the cell surface of infected cells. It was recently demonstrated that cellular protein BST2/CD317/Tetherin ...
The proprotein convertase PC5/6 is protective against intestinal tumorigenesis: In vivo mouse model
(2009)
The secretory basic amino acid-specific proprotein convertases (PCs) have often been associated with cancer/metastasis. By controlling the cleavage of cancer-associated proteins, PCs play key roles in multiple steps of ...
Development and disease of the photoreceptor cilium
(2009)
Primary cilia are microtubule-rich hair-like extensions protruding from the surface of most post-mitotic cells. They act as sensory organelles that help interpret various environmental cues. Mutations in genes encoding ...
Albumin dialysis : a new therapeutic strategy for intoxication from protein-bound drugs
(Springer, 2004-01-21)
Abstract Objective: Although water-soluble drugs can be removed by
haemofiltration/haemodialysis, morbidity and mortality from intoxication
with protein-bound drugs remains
high. The present study investigates
whether ...
Serotoninergic modulation of sensory transmission to brainstem reticulospinal cells
(Wiley, 2008-08-05)
Sensory inputs are subjected to modulation by central neural networks involved in controlling movements. It has been shown that serotonin (5‐HT) modulates sensory transmission. This study examines in lampreys the effects ...
The euchromatic and heterochromatic landscapes are shaped by antagonizing effects of transcription on H2A.Z deposition
(2009)
A role for variant histone H2A.Z in gene expression is now well established but little is known about the mechanisms by which it operates. Using a combination of ChIP-chip, knockdown and expression profiling experiments, ...
Src family kinases are required for limb trajectory selection by spinal motor axons
(2009)
Signal relay by guidance receptors at the axonal growth cone is a process essential for the assembly of a functional nervous system. We
investigated the in vivo function of Src family kinases (SFKs) as growth cone guidance ...
Partitivity, atomization, and noun-drop : a longitudinal study of french child
(Taylor & Francis, 2009)
This article examines noun-drop constructions in French-speaking children. French being interme- diate between English (which rarely allows noun-drop) and Spanish (which freely allows it) with respect to the richness of ...
Elicitation of the passé composé in French preschoolers with and without specific language impairment
Verb elicitation in French
(Cambridge University Press, 2008)
This study examines inflectional abilities in French-speaking children with specific language impairment
(SLI) using a verb elicitation task. Eleven children with SLI and age-matched controls (37–
52 months) participated ...
Frequency of Chromosome Healing and Interstitial Telomeres in 40 Cases of Constitutional Abnormalities
(S. Karger AG, Basel, 2009-09-04)
Human telomeres play a major role in stabilizing chromosome ends and preventing fusions. Chromosomes bearing a broken end are rescued by the acquisition of a new telomeric cap without any subtelomeric sequences being present ...
