Drosophila Neuroligin 1 Promotes Growth and Postsynaptic Differentiation at Glutamatergic Neuromuscular Junctions
- Daniel Banovic, Omid Khorramshahi, +6 authors Hermann Aberle
- Biology, Medicine
- Neuron
- 10 June 2010
Precise apposition of presynaptic and postsynaptic domains is a fundamental property of all neuronal circuits. Experiments in vitro suggest that Neuroligins and Neurexins function as key regulatory… Expand
Mapping quantitative trait loci underlying the cooking and eating quality of rice using a DH population
- R. Tian, Gong-Hao Jiang, L. Shen, Ling-Qiang Wang, Yu-Qing He

The cooking and eating quality of rice has attracted more attention recently. In a comprehensive effort to unravel its genetic basis, we conducted a genome-wide analysis of six traits representing… Expand
Pancreatic Cancer Cells Resistant to Chemoradiotherapy Rich in “Stem-Cell-Like” Tumor Cells
- Zhiyong Du, Renyi Qin, +4 authors Cheng-hong Peng
- Medicine
- Digestive Diseases and Sciences
- 1 March 2011
BackgroundTumor resistance to chemoradiation therapy is partly attributed to the presence of apoptosis-resistant cancer stem cells (CSCs). Chemoradiation therapy can enrich CSCs by killing… Expand
Peptides that regulate food intake: appetite-inducing accumbens manipulation activates hypothalamic orexin neurons and inhibits POMC neurons.

Corticolimbic circuits involving the prefrontal cortex, amygdala, and ventral striatum determine the reward value of food and might play a role in environmentally induced obesity. Chemical… Expand
Solute Geochemistry and Multivariate Analysis of Water Quality in the Guohua Phosphorite Mine, Guizhou Province, China
Water plays a critical role in securing the mine production and domestic consumption in mining areas. This research was carried out to assess the water quality status and to identify the… Expand
Synergistic antitumor activity of withaferin A combined with oxaliplatin triggers reactive oxygen species-mediated inactivation of the PI3K/AKT pathway in human pancreatic cancer cells.
Application of oxaliplatin for the treatment of pancreatic cancer (PC) is restricted owing to its toxic side effects and drug resistance. We investigated how withaferin A (WA), a bioactive component… Expand
CD44+CD133+ population exhibits cancer stem cell-like characteristics in human gallbladder carcinoma

- Biology, Medicine
- Cancer biology & therapy
- 1 December 2010
Cancer stem cells (CSCs)/tumor-initiating cells have been defined as a subset of tumor cells responsible for initiating and sustaining tumor development. Emerging evidence strongly supports the… Expand

- 9 February 2015
Root nodule bacteria are free-living soil bacteria, belonging to diverse genera within the Alphaproteobacteria and Betaproteobacteria, that have the capacity to form nitrogen-fixing symbioses with… Expand
A presynaptic role for the cytomatrix protein GIT in synaptic vesicle recycling.
- Jasmin Podufall, R. Tian, +14 authors V. Haucke
- Biology, Medicine
- Cell reports
- 12 June 2014
Neurotransmission involves the exo-endocytic cycling of synaptic vesicles (SVs) within nerve terminals. Exocytosis is facilitated by a cytomatrix assembled at the active zone (AZ). The precise… Expand
