A direct and continuous kinetic method for the fluorimetric assay of various hydrolases by using new, highly water-soluble substrates is described. The latter consist of esters of strongly fluorescent 1-hydroxypyren-3,6,8-trisulfonic acid trisodium salt with acetic, butyric, caprylic, and oleic acid.

Mechanisms that maintain proliferation and delay cell differentiation in the intestinal crypt are not yet fully understood. We have previously shown the implication of histone methylation in the regulation of enterocytic differentiation. In this study, we investigated the role of
Our collaborative successful gene replacement therapy using AAV vectors expressing a variant of human RPGR-ORF15 in two canine models provided therapeutic proof of concept for translation into human treatment. The ORF15 sequence contained within this AAV vector, however, has ORF15

Currently there are no efficacious therapies for patients with anaplastic thyroid carcinoma (ATC) that result in long-term disease stabilization or regression. We sought to identify pathways critical for ATC cell progression and viability in an effort to develop new therapeutic

Carbon monoxide (CO), a product of heme degradation by heme oxygenases, plays an important role in vascular homeostasis. Recent evidence indicates that mitochondria are among a number of molecular targets that mediate the cellular actions of CO. In the present
