Bouton-sparing properties of kainic acid were re-investigated at the fine structural level. Two to 42 days after kainic acid (2.2-5.0 nmol) injection into the rat striatum, nigrostriatal dopaminergic boutons we... | {

Nucleus accumbens neurons are innately tuned for rewarding and aversive taste stimuli, encode their predictors, and are linked to motor output.
The nucleus accumbens (NAc) is a key component of the brain's reward pathway, yet little is known of how NAc cells respond to primary rewarding or aversive stimuli. Here, naive... | {

Influence of cholesterol derivatives on cytoskeletal organization of human carcinoma cells.
Recent developments of immunotherapeutic approaches have shown that artificial ordering of tumor cell membranes with cholesterol hemisuccinate (CHS) or 25-hydroxycholesterol (25-OH) may significantly enhance the immunogenicity o... | {

Dose-response of ritonavir on hepatic CYP3A activity and elvitegravir oral exposure.
Ritonavir, a potent inhibitor of cytochrome P450 isoform 3A (CYP3A) activity, is frequently used to boost the effects of protease inhibitors at doses of 100-400 mg per day; however, human data regarding the optimal dose required for bo... | {

Tumor induction in Sencar mice in response to ultraviolet radiation.
The purpose of this study was to ascertain whether Sencar mice, which are extremely susceptible to two-stage skin carcinogenesis by chemical carcinogens, also exhibit increased susceptibility to carcinogenesis by ultraviolet radiation (UVR). Sencar an... | {

Humoral immunity in the spontaneously diabetic BB rat.
Litters of BB rats with an expected high and low incidence of insulin-dependent diabetes were followed from weaning until the age of about 140 days. Islet cell surface antibodies (ICSA) and lymphocyte antibodies (LA) were determined in a radioligand assay with fixe... | {

Rejection of parental meth-a tumor on concomitant inoculation of meth-a cells infected retrovirally with the interferon-gamma gene into (balb/cxc57bl/6)f-1 mice.
The IFN-gamma gene was introduced retrovirally into Meth A cells. IFN-gamma gene infected Meth A (K gamma) cells were highly antigenic and regressed in CB6F(1... | {
