Journal ArticleDOI

Nerve growth factor-induced differentiation changes the cellular organization of regulated Peptide release by PC12 cells.

TL;DR: It is reported that this phenotype conversion produces major changes in release of a green fluorescent protein-tagged neuropeptide–hormone, which implies that the mechanism that limits the size of the releasable pool is altered by phenotype conversion.
Journal ArticleDOI

The role of lipocalin-2 in age-related macular degeneration (AMD).

TL;DR: The general molecular basis for the involvement of LCN-2 in acute infections and chronic disease progression is discussed and the probable role of LCNs in ocular diseases, particularly in age-related macular degeneration (AMD), is ascertained.
Journal ArticleDOI

Therapeutic reduction of cell-mediated immunosuppression in mycosis fungoides and Sézary syndrome

TL;DR: These studies identify potential mechanisms of action for these therapies and support the development of coordinated strategies targeting both Treg and MDSC activities in patients with MF/SzS.
Journal ArticleDOI

Comparison of road and wind-tunnel drag reductions for commercial vehicles

TL;DR: In this paper, the effects of atmospheric turbulence (which are always present during road tests when high yaw angles are measured due to the strong crosswinds) are shown to be significant.
