Characterization of Endoproteolytic Processing of Dynorphins by Proprotein Convertases using Mouse Spinal Cord S9 Fractions and Mass Spectrometry
(2016-06-01)
Dynorphins are important neuropeptides with a central role in nociception and pain alleviation. Many mechanisms regulate endogenous dynorphin concentrations, including proteolysis. Proprotein convertases (PCs) are widely ...
Tachykinins Processing is Significantly Impaired in PC1 and PC2 Mutant Mouse Spinal Cord S9 Fractions
(2015-11-01)
Substance P (SP) play a central role in nociceptive transmission and it is an agonist of the
Neurokinin-1 receptor located in the lamina I of the spinal cord. SP is a major proteolytic product
of the protachykinin-1 ...
Assessment of meat authenticity using bioinformatics, targeted peptide biomarkers and high-resolution mass spectrometry
(2015-10-01)
In recent years, we observed a significant increase of food fraud ranging from false label claims to the use of additives and fillers to increase profitability. Recently in 2013, horse and pig DNA were detected in beef ...
