Effect of in vitro transcription on cruciform stability.
(East Carolina University, 1990-05-11)
We have investigated the effect of in vitro transcription on cruciform stability. Replicative form DNA of 4X174 strain ins6240, containing a 48 bp synthetic palindrome in the J-F intercistronic region, was supercoiled in ...
The effect of fasting on the activation in vivo of the insulin receptor kinase.
(East Carolina University, 1990-02-01)
Fasting causes insulin resistance in liver and fat, and increases insulin sensitivity in muscle. We studied the response in vitro and in vivo to insulin of the insulin receptor tyrosine kinase in muscle and liver from 72 ...
Transplantation and the Trauma Surgeon
(East Carolina University, 1990-11)
The number of satisfactory vascular organs suitable for organ transplantation can be increased appreciably by a close working relationship between traumatologists and transplant surgeons. Benefits will derive from more ...
Thoracolumbar compression fractures presenting with an acute ileus.
(East Carolina University, 1990-09)
Corticosteroids are commonly used in the treatment of connective tissue diseases such as systemic lupus erythematosus. Although they are usually efficacious, osteoporosis leading to spine compression fractures is not ...
Insulin responsiveness in skeletal muscle is determined by glucose transporter (Glut4) protein level.
(East Carolina University, 1990-09-01)
Glucose transport in skeletal muscle is mediated by two distinct transporter isoforms, designated muscle/adipose glucose transporter (Glut4) and erythrocyte/HepG2/brain glucose transporter (Glutl), which differ in both ...
Molecular basis for the immunosuppressive action of stearic acid on T cells.
(East Carolina University, 1990-07)
Studies were performed to determine the mechanism by which stearic acid (18: 0) selectively inhibits T-dependent immune responses in vitro. Incubation of mitogen-activated B and T cells with 18:0 resulted in dissimilar ...
Extracellular matrix induction method to produce pancreatic islet tissue
(1990-06-19)
A method and composition of regenerating tissue. More specifically, a method for regenerating pancreatic islet tissue having the histological and insulin-containing properties of islets typically found in neonatal or adult ...
Cancer mortality in Native Americans in North Carolina.
(East Carolina University, 1990-08)
his paper describes age-adjusted mortality from malignant neoplasms for Native Americans in North Carolina for 1968-72 and 1978-82. Sex-specific standardized mortality ratios were calculated from death certificate data, ...
