Compositions and methods for treatment of lymphatic and venous vessel arterialization

TL;DR: In this paper, methods and compositions that may be used in disrupting the association of smooth muscle cells with lymphatic endothelial cells and in correcting the valvular dysfunction in veins and lymphatic vessels are presented.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cell transformation by c-Ha-rasVal12 oncogene is accompanied by a decrease in histone H1 zero and an increase in nucleosomal repeat length.

TL;DR: It is discovered that serum stimulation of normal and transformed cells, synchronized by serum starvation, induces rapid reversible changes in the structure of bulk chromatin that may be linked to transcriptional activation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Distinct roles of the meningeal layers in CNS autoimmunity

TL;DR: An uneven involvement of the meningeal layers in CNS autoimmunity is demonstrated, in which effector T cell trafficking and activation are functionally confined to the leptomeninges, while the dura remains largely excluded from CNS autoimmune processes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effects of Zn2+ ions on protein phosphorylation in epithelial cell membranes.

TL;DR: The effects of Zn2+ ions on protein phosphorylation in membrane vesicles are complex and are not restricted to an inhibition of a single protein phosphatase or kinase.
