The intraventricular administrations of L-glutamate or trans-1-amino-1,3-cyclopentanedicarboxylic acid (t-ACPD), which is an agonist for the metabotropic glutamate receptor, induced conformational changes of the smooth endoplasmic reticulum (SER) to form lamellar bodies, consisting of stacks of flattened cisterns in Purkinje cell
Viroids, the smallest known pathogens, unable to encode any proteins, can cause severe diseases in their host plants. One of the proposed mechanisms of their pathogenicity includes silencing the host's genes via viroid-derived small RNAs, which are products of the

Mossy fiber synapses form the major excitatory input into the autoassociative network of pyramidal cells in the CA3 area of the hippocampus. Here we demonstrate that at the mossy fiber synapses, glutamate and gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) act as autaptic and

Membrane transporters and sequestration mechanisms concentrate metal ions differentially into discrete subcellular microenvironments for use in protein cofactors, signalling, storage or excretion. Here we identify zinc storage granules as the insect's major zinc reservoir in principal Malpighian tubule epithelial cells
The European journal of neuroscience, 10(1), 272-280 (1998-09-30)
In view of the neurotrophic effect of vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP), the regulation of brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) expression by VIP and the related peptide pituitary adenylate cyclase-activating polypeptide (PACAP) was analysed by Northern blot in primary cultures of cortical
