Background Proline-rich tyrosine kinase 2 (Pyk2) is vital in neutrophil degranulation and chemotaxis in vitro. static lung compliance was determined by pressure-volume curve using a computer-controlled small animal ventilator. The extravasated Evans blue concentration in lung homogenate was determined spectrophotometrically. Results Intratracheal instillation of LPS induced significant neutrophil infiltration into the lung interstitium and alveolar… Continue reading Background Proline-rich tyrosine kinase 2 (Pyk2) is vital in neutrophil degranulation

The biogenesis of iron-sulfur (Fe/S) proteins in eukaryotes is a complex
The biogenesis of iron-sulfur (Fe/S) proteins in eukaryotes is a complex process involving more than 20 components. only few experimental data are available yet on Fe/S protein assembly in higher eukaryotes. A role of energized mitochondria was suggested by a study on the assembly of IRP1 (8) a cytosolic Fe/S AG-L-59687 protein with aconitase activity… Continue reading The biogenesis of iron-sulfur (Fe/S) proteins in eukaryotes is a complex
