Proteolysis in skeletal muscle is mainly carried out by the activity of the ubiquitin-dependent proteolytic system. For the study of protein degradation through the ubiquitin-proteasome pathway, we used a model of hyperthermia in murine myotubes. In C2C12 cells, hyperthermia (41°C)
We tested the effectiveness of combined DNA vaccines encoding antigens Ag85B, MPT64 and MPT83 from Mycobacterium tuberculosis on cattle. Our results showed that calves treated with combined DNA vaccines in the presence of dimethyldioctyldecyl ammonium bromide (DDA) or saline elicited

The sequence of intracellular events that lead to renin release is incompletely defined. Accordingly, we examined the interrelationship of two important factors in the process: renin release coupled to cAMP and renin release related to a decrease in intracellular calcium
DDT, DDE and some additional lipophilic derivatives are recognized contaminants in sediments of Southern California Bight (SCB). Only about 10% of total DDTs discharged into the SCB are accounted for using available monitoring data (sediment, water, and biota). DDA represented

We assessed the interaction of several pesticides with renal organic anion transport based on inhibition of the active transepithelial transport of p-aminohippuric acid ([3H]PAH) by primary cultures of winter flounder proximal tubules. Four structurally similar chlorophenoxy acid herbicides were tested.
