Pathological mechanisms in experimental autoimmune myasthenia gravis. II. Passive transfer of experimental autoimmune myasthenia gravis in rats with anti-acetylcholine recepotr antibodies.

TL;DR: Passive transfer of experimental autoimmune myasthenia gravis (EAMG) was achieved using the gamma globulin fraction and purified IgG from sera of rats immunized with Electrophus electricus (eel) acetylcholine receptor (AChR) to demonstrate the critical role of anti- AChR antibodies in impairing neuromuscular transmission in EAMG.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effect of fibroblast growth factor on the division and fusion of bovine myoblasts.

TL;DR: Growth hormone, insulin and testosterone did not have significant effects on DNA synthesis in bovine myoblasts when compared to the FGF and FGF did not stimulate the proliferation of chick embryo myoblast, indicating that it is not active in all vertebrate species.
Journal ArticleDOI

Roles of Accessory Subunits in α4β2* Nicotinic Receptors

TL;DR: It is shown that both α5 and β3 efficiently assemble in human α4β2* AChRs expressed in permanently transfected human embryonic kidney (HEK) cell lines, which may explain why α5 or β3 seem to be transcribed at low levels in brain.
Journal ArticleDOI

Molecular studies of the neuronal nicotinic acetylcholine receptor family.

TL;DR: Certainly, the studies of these receptors are in rapid flux, with the availability of monoclonal antibody probes for localizing, purifying, and characterizing the proteins, and cDNA probes for determining sequences, localizing mRNAs, expressing functional receptors, and studying genetic regulation.
