The anatomy of gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA)-immunoreactive, recurrent feedback neurons in the mushroom body (MB) of the honeybee, Apis mellifera, was investigated by using intraneuropilar injections of cobalt ions and light microscopic techniques. Each MB contains approximately 110 GABA-immunoreactive neurons, and

Hexamminecobalt(III) (HAC) chloride was found to have a potent inhibitory effect on glucose-induced insulin secretion from pancreatic islets. HAC at 2 mm inhibited the secretion in response to 22.2 mm glucose by 90% in mouse islets. Perifusion experiments revealed that

West Nile virus (WNV) is a member of the Flaviviridae family which includes a number of important human pathogens. The WNV NS5 protein harbors an RNA-dependent RNA polymerase activity which is required both for replication and transcription of the viral
Somatic hypermutation (SHM) introduces point mutations into immunoglobulin (Ig) genes but also causes mutations in other parts of the genome. We have used lentiviral SHM reporter vectors to identify regions of the genome that are susceptible ("hot") and resistant ("cold")
