Cell identity in eukaryotes is controlled by transcriptional regulatory networks that define cell-type-specific gene expression. In the opportunistic fungal pathogen Candida albicans, transcriptional regulatory networks regulate epigenetic switching between two alternative cell states, 'white' and 'opaque', that exhibit distinct host
Opposing functions of activated microglia, namely neuroprotection or neurotrophy versus neurodestruction or neurotoxicity, have been observed in a number of experimental models of neurotrauma and neurodegenerative diseases. However, the mechanism(s) involved in the determination of which function activated microglia execute

Albino (Sprague-Dawley) and pigmented (Norwegian Brown) male rats were exposed to 2,5-hexanediol (H; 1%) in their drinking water for 5 or 8 weeks, respectively. Half of the rats of each strain were housed in light (average 30 cd/cm2 inside cage

A study has been made of the structural changes of nodal and paranodal regions of the nodes of Ranvier of peripheral nerves of rats in which marked accumulations of neurofilaments have occurred within axons under the influence of 2,5-hexanediol over
Triterpenes from the outer bark of birch have many beneficial biological and pharmacological activities. In particular, its wound healing efficacy is of paramount importance. Apart from that, particles of a birch bark dry extract aggregate into a three dimensional network
