TL;DR: Temperature-jump experiments were performed with di, tetra-, and hexasaccharides derived from type III pneumococcal polysaccharide using a homogeneous corresponding antibody IgG 45-394 and a mechanism is proposed which consists of a fast formation of a labile oligosaccharide-antibody precomplex followed by a slow isomerization step which is induced by the oligosACcharide ligands but which is chain-length independent.

TL;DR: The results of the in vitro experiment suggested that the activation of soluble guanylate cyclase of the vascular smooth muscle cell may be involved, at least in part, in the vasodilator mechanism of carboxy-PTI in large conduit arteries.

TL;DR: In this article, a newly developed Cu-Ag microcomposite wire which has excellent properties of high conductivity, high mechanical strength and high homogeneity along the wire was used to construct magnet coils for pulsed magnets with long pulse duration.

TL;DR: The results indicate the presence of other metalloprotease(s) which cleaves kinins in the ascitic fluid, in addition to kininase I and Kininase II.

TL;DR: It is reported that heat-shock protein 32 (Hsp32), also known as heme oxygenase-1, is a survival-enhancing molecule and new target in canine mastocytoma cells.
