Journal ArticleDOI

Effects of truncations of the cytoplasmic tail of the luteinizing hormone/chorionic gonadotropin receptor on receptor-mediated hormone internalization.

TL;DR: It is suggested that a region(s) between residues 616 and 631 of the rLH/CG receptor are required for proper insertion and/or targeting of the receptor into the plasma membrane, and both hCG-stimulated cAMP production and hCG internalization are enhanced by the removal of the distal portion of the cytoplasmic tail.
Journal ArticleDOI

Seminiferous Tubule Involution in Elderly Men

TL;DR: The observation of different types of seminiferous tubules in aging human testes points to the progressive stages of tubular involution in elderly men, which seems to cause nonspecific effects on the testis such as multinucleate cells, vacuoles, and increased lipids in Sertoli cells.
Journal ArticleDOI

Truncation of the cytoplasmic tail of the lutropin/choriogonadotropin receptor prevents agonist-induced uncoupling.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that the C-terminal cytoplasmic tail of the LH/CG receptor is necessary for agonist-induced uncoupling.
Journal ArticleDOI

Comparison of changes in erythrocyte and platelet phospholipid and fatty acid composition and protein oxidation in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and asthma.

TL;DR: COPD and asthma are associated with common or specific changes in the lipid composition of erythrocytes and/or platelets, and the data point to lipid peroxidation and protein oxidation phenomena in both types of blood cell, although platelets would be more susceptible to stress.
Journal ArticleDOI

Alterations in erythrocyte membrane protein composition in advanced non-small cell lung cancer.

TL;DR: RBC from the COPD patients also showed protein abnormalities, some of them, especially at the level of band 3 and the syaloglycoproteins, being similar to those in NSCLC.
