Human distribution and release of a putative new gut hormone, peptide YY.
- T. Adrian, G. L. Ferri, A. Bacarese-Hamilton, H. Fuessl, J. Polak, S. Bloom
- Biology, Medicine
- Gastroenterology
- 1 November 1985
A radioimmunoassay has been developed for the new intestinal hormonal peptide tyrosine tyrosine [peptide YY (PYY)]. Peptide YY concentrations were measured in separated layers of the human… Expand
Third-Generation Biomedical Materials
Whereas second-generation biomaterials were designed to be either resorbable or bioactive, the next generation of biomaterials is combining these two properties, with the aim of developing materials… Expand
The immunolocalization of protein gene product 9.5 using rabbit polyclonal and mouse monoclonal antibodies.
- P. Wilson, P. Barber, +6 authors J. Polak
- Biology, Medicine
- British journal of experimental pathology
- 1 February 1988
In order to assess the potential of protein gene product (PGP) 9.5 as a marker of the nervous and neuroendocrine systems, we examined its immunolocation in human, rat and guinea-pig tissues, using a… Expand
Colocalization of neuropeptide Y immunoreactivity in brainstem catecholaminergic neurons that project to the paraventricular nucleus of the hypothalamus
- P. Sawchenko, L. Swanson, R. Grzanna, P. Howe, S. Bloom, J. Polak
- Biology, Medicine
- The Journal of comparative neurology
- 8 November 1985
Immunohistochemical methods were used in the rat to plot the distribution of neuropeptide Y (NPY) immunoreactivity in the paraventricular (PVH) and supraoptic (SO) nuclei of the hypothalamus, and a… Expand
Neuropeptide Y distribution in the rat brain.
A massive neuronal system was detected by immunocytochemistry and radioimmunoassay with antibodies to neuropeptide Y, the recently isolated peptide of the pancreatic polypeptide family.… Expand

- 29 July 1994
The distribution of the immunoreactivity to nitric oxide synthase has been examined from rostral to caudal areas of the rat central nervous system using light microscopy. Endogenous nitric oxide… Expand
Differentiation of osteoblasts and in vitro bone formation from murine embryonic stem cells.
- L. Buttery, S. Bourne, +5 authors J. Polak
- Biology, Medicine
- Tissue engineering
- 1 February 2001
Pluripotent embryonic stem (ES) cells have the potential to differentiate to all fetal and adult cell types and might represent a useful cell source for tissue engineering and repair. Here we show… Expand
