3-[211At]astato-4-fluorobenzylguanidine: a potential therapeutic agent with prolonged retention by neuroblastoma cells.
(Br J Cancer, 1997)
An analogue of meta-iodobenzylguanidine (MIBG) in which an aromatic hydrogen was replaced
with fluorine has been found to possess many properties similar to those of the parent
compound. Moreover, 4-fluoro-3-iodobenzylguanidine ...
Induction of anti-myelin antibodies in EAE and their possible role in demyelination.
(J Neurosci Res, 1991-12)
Experimental allergic encephalomyelitis is characterized by invasion of lymphocytes
and macrophages into the central nervous system resulting in inflammation, edema,
and demyelination. Sera from Lewis rats from 7-95 days ...
Selective expression of insulin-like growth factor II in the songbird brain.
(J Neurosci, 1997-09-15)
Neuronal replacement occurs in the forebrain of juvenile and adult songbirds. To address
the molecular processes that govern this replacement, we cloned the zebra finch insulin-like
growth factor II (IGF-II) cDNA, a factor ...
For whom the bird sings: context-dependent gene expression.
(Neuron, 1998-10)
Male zebra finches display two song behaviors: directed and undirected singing. The
two differ little in the vocalizations produced but greatly in how song is delivered.
"Directed" song is usually accompanied by a courtship ...
Brain gene regulation by territorial singing behavior in freely ranging songbirds.
(Neuroreport, 1997-05-27)
To investigate the ecological relevance of brain gene regulation associated with singing
behavior in songbirds, we challenged freely ranging song sparrows with conspecific
song playbacks within their breeding territories. ...
Intake, digestibility, and passage of a commercially designed diet by two Propithecus species.
(Am J Primatol, 1999)
The digestibility and passage of an experimental diet was used to compare the digestive
physiology of two Propithecus species: P. verreauxi and P. tattersalli. Though both
animals have a similar feeding ecology, the captive ...
Enhancement of cardiac function after adenoviral-mediated in vivo intracoronary beta2-adrenergic receptor gene delivery.
(J Clin Invest, 1999-07)
Exogenous gene delivery to alter the function of the heart is a potential novel therapeutic
strategy for treatment of cardiovascular diseases such as heart failure (HF). Before
gene therapy approaches to alter cardiac function ...
Relative growth of the limbs and trunk in sifakas: heterochronic, ecological, and functional considerations.
(Am J Phys Anthropol, 1993-12)
Limb, trunk, and body weight measurements were obtained for growth series of Milne-Edwards's
diademed sifaka, Propithecus diadema edwardsi, and the golden-crowned sifaka, Propithecus
tattersalli. Similar measures were obtained ...
Restoration of beta-adrenergic signaling in failing cardiac ventricular myocytes via adenoviral-mediated gene transfer.
(Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A, 1997-10-28)
Cardiovascular gene therapy is a novel approach to the treatment of diseases such
as congestive heart failure (CHF). Gene transfer to the heart would allow for the
replacement of defective or missing cellular proteins that ...
A coprological survey of parasites of wild mantled howling monkeys, Alouatta palliata palliata.
(J Wildl Dis, 1990-10)
Fecal samples from 155 mantled howling monkeys (Alouatta palliata palliata) examined
at Centro Ecologico La Pacifica, Guanacaste Province, Costa Rica, revealed 75 (48%)
had parasitic infections. A sampling of nine howling ...
