Identification and Structural Characterization of Interneurons of the Drosophila Brain by Monoclonal Antibodies of the Wurzburg Hybridoma Library
(2013)Several novel synaptic proteins have been identified by monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) of the Würzburg hybridoma library generated against homogenized Drosophila brains, e.g. cysteine string protein, synapse-associated protein ... -
Plasticity of recurrent inhibition in the Drosophila antennal lobe
(2012)Recurrent inhibition, wherein excitatory principal neurons stimulate inhibitory interneurons that feedback on the same principal cells, occurs ubiquitously in the brain. However, the regulation and function of recurrent ... -
Fly model causes neurological rethink
(2013)A Drosophila model for a neurological disorder called type 2B Charcot- Marie-Tooth disease reveals that it has its origins in a partial loss of function, rather than a gain of function, which points to the need for ... -
Synapsin Function in GABA-ergic Interneurons Is Required for Short-Term Olfactory Habituation
(2013)In Drosophila, short-term (STH) and long-term habituation (LTH) of olfactory avoidance behavior are believed to arise from the selective potentiation of GABAergic synapses between multiglomerular local circuit interneurons ... -
Revisiting AFLP fingerprinting for an unbiased assessment of genetic structure and differentiation of taurine and zebu cattle
(2014)Background Descendants from the extinct aurochs (Bos primigenius), taurine (Bos taurus) and zebu cattle (Bos indicus) were domesticated 10,000 years ago in Southwestern and Southern Asia, respectively, and colonized the ... -
How Much Is That in Dog Years? The Advent of Canine Population Genomics
(2014)ABSTRACT The authors comment on two studies that analyzed multiple genomes of dogs and wolves. The studies reached different conclusions about the date and population effects, a disparity attributed to reliance on molecular ... -
Meta-Analysis of mitochondrial DNA reveals several population bottlenecks during worldwide migrations of cattle
(2014)Several studies have investigated the differentiation of mitochondrial DNA in Eurasian, African and American cattle as well as archaeological bovine material. A global survey of these studies shows that haplogroup distributions ... -
Staphylococcus aureus protein A binding to osteoblast tumour necrosis factor receptor 1 results in activation of nuclear factor kappa B and release of interleukin-6 in bone infection.
(2013)Staphylococcusaureus is the major pathogen among the staphylococci and the most common cause of bone infections. These infections are mainly characterized by bone destruction and inflammation, and are often debilitating ...
