Sensory and cognitive impairments have been documented in diabetic humans and animals, but the pathophysiology of diabetes in the central nervous system is poorly understood. Because a high glucose level disrupts gap junctional communication in various cell types and astrocytes

Therapeutic modalities aimed at bone regeneration are increasingly employing extracellular matrix (ECM) constituents to control bone marrow progenitor cell (BMPC) commitment, growth, and differentiation. However, the precise role these ECM elements play during stem cell differentiation remains unclear. (See also

We have identified three methyl esters that have a potent stimulatory effect on the cotransport system responsible for the absorption of most essential amino acids in the silkworm Bombyx mori. L-Leucine methyl ester, the most powerful activator, determined a large
Recently, long-term preculture with IL-4 or IL-7 has been reported to induce IFN-gamma-producing ability in naive CD4+ T cells without stimulation via TCR. The mechanism of IFN-gamma-transcription in naive CD4+ T cells precultured with IL-4 was analyzed and compared with

The transfer of human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (hu-PBMC) from adult Epstein-Barr-virus(EBV)-seropositive donors in SCID (severe combined immunodeficiency) mice frequently leads to the development of a human B lymphoproliferative syndrome (hu-BLPS). Therefore, as 90% of adult potential donors are EBV-seropositive
