Comparison of glycolysis and oxidative phosphorylation as energy sources for mammalian sperm motility, using the combination of fluorescence imaging, laser tweezers, and real-time automated tracking and trapping.

29 Nov 2008 The combination of laser tweezers, fluorescent imaging, and real-time automated tracking and trapping (RATTS) can measure sperm swimming speed and swimming force simultaneously with mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP). This approach is used to ... Read more...

The resveratrol analogue 3,5,3',4',5'-pentahydroxy-trans-stilbene inhibits cell transformation via MEK.

29 Nov 2008 Resveratrol, present in grapes and red wine, is reported to be a natural chemopreventive agent against cancer. However, the concentrations required to exert these effects may be difficult to achieve by drinking only 1 or 2 glasses of red wine a ... Read more...

Mg2+ -dependent ATP occlusion at the first nucleotide-binding domain (NBD1) of CFTR does not require the second (NBD2).

13 Nov 2008 ATP binding to the first and second NBDs (nucleotide-binding domains) of CFTR (cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator) are bivalent-cation-independent and -dependent steps respectively [Aleksandrov, Aleksandrov, Chang and Riordan ... Read more...
