Journal ArticleDOI

Neuropeptide Y and peptide YY neuronal and endocrine systems.

TL;DR: Evidence has been presented which indicates that NPY may play important roles in regulating autonomic function, and the peptide coexists with catecholamines in the central and sympathetic nervous system and adrenal medulla.
Journal ArticleDOI

Variants of 3T3 cells lacking mitogenic response to epidermal growth factor

TL;DR: Of the eight clonal EGF nonresponder variants selected by this procedure, none retains a functional EGF receptor and the EGFnonresponsive va-riant lines still retain the ability to respond to other mitogens.
Journal ArticleDOI

Identification and Characterization of Cholest-4-en-3-one, Oxime (TRO19622), a Novel Drug Candidate for Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis

TL;DR: In vivo and in vitro, TRO19622 rescued motor neurons from axotomy-induced cell death in neonatal rats and promoted nerve regeneration following sciatic nerve crush in mice, suggesting a potential mechanism for its neuroprotective activity.

Agonist-Activated Cobalt Uptake Identifies Divalent Cation-Permeable

TL;DR: Pruss et al. as mentioned in this paper found that activation of kainate receptors causes Co*+ influx into neurons, type-2 astrocytes, and 0-2A progenitor cells.
