Preimplantation-stage stem cells induce long-term allogeneic graft acceptance without supplementary host conditioning

TL;DR: It is shown that when rat embryonic stem cell-like cells of WKY origin are injected intraportally into fully MHC-mismatched DA rats, they engraft permanently without supplementary host conditioning, which sets the basis for long-term graft acceptance of second-set transplanted WKY cardiac allografts.
Journal ArticleDOI

Decreased liver fatty acid binding capacity and altered liver lipid distribution in mice lacking the liver fatty acid-binding protein gene.

TL;DR: A quantitative assessment of the contribution of L-FABP to cytosolic fatty acid binding capacity is provided and it is suggested that SCP-2 contributes to the accumulation of cholesterol in L- FABP null liver.
Journal ArticleDOI

Liver fatty acid-binding protein is required for high rates of hepatic fatty acid oxidation but not for the action of PPAR-α in fasting mice

TL;DR: The results suggest that under fasting conditions, hepatic L‐FABP contributes to hepatic LCFA oxidation and ketogenesis by a nontranscriptional mechanism, whereas L‐fABP can activate ketogenic gene expression in fed mice, whereas the mechanisms whereby L‐ FABP affects fatty acid oxidation may vary with physiological condition.
Journal ArticleDOI

Heart-Type Fatty Acid Binding Protein Regulates Dopamine D2 Receptor Function in Mouse Brain

TL;DR: It is shown that H-FABP is highly expressed in acetylcholinergic interneurons and terminals of glutamatergic neurons in the dorsal striatum of mouse brain but absent in dopamine neuron terminals and spines in the same region, thereby regulating dopamine D2R function in the striatum.
