The interaction between mastication and cerebral blood flow was studied in 12 healthy
volunteers (five males and seven females) aged 18–40 years. Positron-emission …

Focal adhesion kinase (FAK) has an anti-apoptotic role in anchorage-dependent cells via an
unknown mechanism. To elucidate the role of FAK in anti-apoptosis, we have established …

Elderly people insidiously manifest the symptoms of heart failure, such as dyspnea and/or
physical disabilities in an age-dependent manner. Although previous studies suggested that …

Dsk2p from Saccharomyces cerevisiae belongs to the class of proteins that contain a
ubiquitin-like (UbL) domain at the N terminus together with a ubiquitin-associated (UBA) …

The proteasome has a paramount role in eukaryotic cell regulation. It consists of a
proteolytic core particle (CP) bound to one or two regulatory particles (RPs). Each RP is …

The central protease of eukaryotes, the 26S proteasome, has a 20S proteolytic core particle
(CP) and an attached 19S regulatory particle (RP). The RP is further subdivided into lid and …

The proteasome is the central regulatory protease of eukaryotic cells. Heteroheptameric α-
subunit and β-subunit rings stack to form the 20S proteasome, which associates with a 19S …

The long-short wave interactions between an internal gravity wave and a surface gravity
wave packet in a two-layer fluid are investigated. When the phase speed of the internal …

Emery–Dreifuss muscular dystrophy (EDMD) is an inherited disorder characterized by the
clinical triad of life-threatening progressive cardiomyopathy with conduction defect, early …

Amiloride inhibition of single fiber responses of the rat chorda tympani to ionic chemical and
electrical tongue stimulations was studied. Amiloride reduced responses to both chemical …
