Transsynaptic Tracing from Peripheral Targets with Pseudorabies Virus Followed by Cholera Toxin and Biotinylated Dextran Amines Double Labeling.
(J Vis Exp, 2015-09-14)
Transsynaptic tracing has become a powerful tool used to analyze central efferents
that regulate peripheral targets through multi-synaptic circuits. This approach has
been most extensively used in the brain by utilizing ...
Mapping nonlinear receptive field structure in primate retina at single cone resolution.
(eLife, 2015-10-30)
The function of a neural circuit is shaped by the computations performed by its interneurons,
which in many cases are not easily accessible to experimental investigation. Here,
we elucidate the transformation of visual signals ...
A Peptide Uncoupling BDNF Receptor TrkB from Phospholipase Cγ1 Prevents Epilepsy Induced by Status Epilepticus.
(Neuron, 2015-11-04)
The BDNF receptor tyrosine kinase, TrkB, underlies nervous system function in both
health and disease. Excessive activation of TrkB caused by status epilepticus promotes
development of temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE), revealing ...
FoxP2 expression in avian vocal learners and non-learners.
(J Neurosci, 2004-03-31)
Most vertebrates communicate acoustically, but few, among them humans, dolphins and
whales, bats, and three orders of birds, learn this trait. FOXP2 is the first gene
linked to human speech and has been the target of positive ...
Cloning of the cDNA for the human beta 1-adrenergic receptor.
(Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A, 1987-11)
Screening of a human placenta lambda gt11 library has led to the isolation of the
cDNA for the human beta 1-adrenergic receptor (beta 1AR). Used as the probe was the
human genomic clone termed G-21. This clone, which contains ...
Tyrosine phosphorylation of G protein alpha subunits by pp60c-src.
(Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A, 1992-07-01)
A number of lines of evidence suggest that cross-talk exists between the cellular
signal transduction pathways involving tyrosine phosphorylation catalyzed by members
of the pp60c-src kinase family and those mediated by ...
Involvement of tyrosine residues located in the carboxyl tail of the human beta 2-adrenergic receptor in agonist-induced down-regulation of the receptor.
(Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A, 1990-07)
Chronic exposure of various cell types to adrenergic agonists leads to a decrease
in cell surface beta 2-adrenergic receptor (beta 2AR) number. Sequestration of the
receptor away from the cell surface as well as a down-regulation ...
Chromosomal organization of adrenergic receptor genes.
(Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A, 1990-02)
The adrenergic receptors (ARs) (subtypes alpha 1, alpha 2, beta 1, and beta 2) are
a prototypic family of guanine nucleotide binding regulatory protein-coupled receptors
that mediate the physiological effects of the hormone ...
The G-protein-coupled receptor kinases beta ARK1 and beta ARK2 are widely distributed at synapses in rat brain.
(J Neurosci, 1992-10)
The beta-adrenergic receptor kinase (beta ARK) phosphorylates the agonist-occupied
beta-adrenergic receptor to promote rapid receptor uncoupling from Gs, thereby attenuating
adenylyl cyclase activity. Beta ARK-mediated receptor ...
Essential role of beta-adrenergic receptor kinase 1 in cardiac development and function.
(Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A, 1996-11-12)
The beta-adrenergic receptor kinase 1 (beta ARK1) is a member of the G protein-coupled
receptor kinase (GRK) family that mediates the agonist-dependent phosphorylation and
desensitization of G protein-coupled receptors. ...
