Primakoff et al.38 and Tung et al.39 identified that immunization of male guinea pigs with the sperm sur- face protein sperm adhesion molecule 1 (SPAM1, PH-20) reproducibly resulted in infertility. They demonstrated that EAO could be induced in guinea pigs immunized with PH-20 + ...
Terman also did not live long enough to learn that two California schoolchildren who did not make his IQ cutoff went on to win Nobel prizes, writes Joel N. Shurkin in his 1992 book, “Terman’s Kids.” One was the late William Shockley, who shared the 1956 physics prize for helping i...
3. Effect on vascularity and BBB integrity The brain is a very well-protected organ with two barrier systems. One is a highly specialized microvascular endothelial system known as blood brain barrier (BBB), its function is to protect the brain from the entry of damaging substances and at the...
We're great hosts at a party, too. It's our unruly, wild cousins that have given us such a bad rap all these centuries. If you happen to ever want to adopt one and ideally two of us pet rats -- here's a bit of advice to help us all get along comfortably together. Give us ...
Many different species are used in virus research, from small rodents such as mice and rats to larger species such as guinea pigs, chickens, ferrets, and nonhuman primates. Prior to the 1970s, the rat, hamster, and the guinea pig were the most common animal models used in virus studies....
The results of this analysis demonstrated that two ESE, two ESR and six ESS are present in the first 15 nt upstream of the donor splice site of exon c.1. Upstream of the donor splice site of exon c eight ESE, three ESR and five ESS are present. Therefore, although both sites have ...
Subsequently, two additional long transcripts due to alternative splicing of exon II and including exons I to IV have also been identified (NM_001127899.3: mRNA variant 1 and NM_001127898.3: mRNA variant 2) [5]. Both of these transcripts carry the ATG start sequence in exon III, thereby ...
i have just got two babay rabbits that should be both 10 weeks old male and brothers. Today sweep, who is bigger than scamp, has started to consistantly hump sc...
An aliquot from each rotavirus-infected pig stool sample was split into two fractions of equal volume, where one fraction was unprocessed and referred to as “complete”; the other processed as described above to remove all vesicles and referred to as “depleted.” MA104 cells were subsequently...
“Weirdo,” I thought. But like everything else I have learned from all of those moms that went before me, it’s true. Honey, please let go of your wee-wee. You need two hands to hold onto the swing. Sweetie, you can’t play tee-ball if you are holding your penis. ...
