Activation of GPR4 by Acidosis Increases Endothelial Cell Adhesion through the cAMP/Epac Pathway
(2011)
Endothelium-leukocyte interaction is critical for inflammatory responses. Whereas the tissue microenvironments are often acidic at inflammatory sites, the mechanisms by which cells respond to acidosis are not well understood. ...

DINITROBENZENES STIMULATE ELECTRON FLUX WITHIN NEURONAL NITRIC OXIDE SYNTHASE IN THE ABSENCE OF CALMODULIN
(2011)
Efficient electron transfer and conversion of L-arginine to L-citrulline and nitric oxide
(NO●) by neuronal nitric oxide synthase (nNOS) requires calmodulin (CaM) binding. The
