Metallothionein (MT) is a 6-7 kDa, cysteine-rich, zinc-binding protein that has antioxidant properties. MT-I and MT-II are similar isoforms, often considered to behave as one species (MT-I/II), that share the ability to provide protection to the injured brain. During insult to the centr...

HPAF-II and BHK-21 cells were additionally supplemented with 17.5% glucose. Cells were kept in a 5% CO2 atmosphere at 37°C. For all experiments, cells were kept no more than 15 passages (except for C and GR cell lines, which were specially passaged as described below). All described ...
CSF cell count, glucose and protein levels, along with anti-Borrelia burgdorferi antibodies were monitored using the ELISA technique. Results: CXCL13 chemokine levels in the CSF of patients with acute infectious neurological diseases showed a median value of 23.07 pg/mL, which was significantly ...
We further detected the effects of seizures on synapses, especially synaptic plasticity and relevant protein expression, in the hippocampus of APP mice. Hippocampal synaptic transmission and LTP induction in the APP mice receiving PTZ injection were significantly impaired (Fig. 4A-C). The protein leve...
Cells were suspended in modified Williams E medium (GIBCO/BRL) containing 20% fetal bovine serum (Sigma, St. Louis, MO) and 5.5 mM glucose and were plated on 60 mm culture dishes coated with rat tail collagen (Collaborative Biochemical Products, Bedford, MA) at 3 × 106 cells per plate....
(1, 60) = 3.19, p = 0.079, partial η2 = 0.05,Table 1,Supplemental Fig. S6). No significant differences were detected in the imipramine-equivalent antidepressant doses or white cell numbers in CSF. The total protein concentration was significantly higher in patients with a ...
The aim of this study was to investigate cytokine levels in the masseter muscle, their response to experimental tooth-clenching and their relation to pain, fatigue and psychological distress in patients with temporomandibular disorders (TMD) myalgia. For
To ascertain the role of the C/EBPα protein in vivo, we have generated C/EBPα-deficient mice by homologous recombination in ES cells. Here we report that C/EBPα is critical for the proper development of both the liver and the lung since animals deficient in C/EBPα display gross abno...
