1. Five major fibre types in chicken skeletal muscles are recognized, based upon their histochemical and morphological characteristics. A classification of these which is readily related to a commonly used mammalian muscle given. 2. Seven the were analysed recognizing this range types. The proportions different each determined. In some cases gradient type composition exists across single muscle. 3. Measurements contraction defining tonic muscles, contain two It was shown that addition...

Abstract Purpose: CD137 is a T- and NK-cell costimulatory receptor involved in consolidating immunologic responses. The potent agonist urelumab has shown clinical promise as cancer immunotherapeutic but development been hampered by on-target off-tumor toxicities. A targeted to the prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA), frequently highly expressed on castration-resistant metastatic prostate (mCRPC) tumor cells, could bring effective immunotherapy this immunologically challenging address...

Mouse 3T3 fibroblasts were permanently transfected with cDNAs encoding isoforms of the neural cell adhesion molecule (N-CAM) present in human skeletal muscle and brain. Parental cells then used a range assays. In absence external shear forces, transfection either transmembrane or glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI)-linked N-CAM species significantly increased intercellular adhesiveness suspension. Transfection cDNA secreted isoform was without effect on adhesion. Cells containing lacking...

We have examined dystrophin mRNA in embryonic, newborn and adult mouse skeletal muscle. A discrete nerve‐independent increase size was observed between embryonic stages, indicating that a developmentally regulated isoform switch occurs the expression of Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) gene These distinct mRNAs are most likely generated via selection alternative transcriptional start sites or RNA processing pathways. In addition, denervation muscle without effect on pattern.

Using a sensitive and quantitative adhesion assay, we have studied the initial stages of intercellular C2 mouse myoblast line. After dissociation in low levels trypsin EDTA, cells can rapidly reaggregate by Ca2+-independent mechanisms to form large multicellular aggregates. If are allowed recover from incubation defined media, this adhesive system is augmented Ca2+-dependent mechanism with maximum recovery seen after 4 h incubation. The inhibited preincubation cell monolayers cycloheximide...

Cultured skin fibroblasts from normal individuals and patients with Duchenne muscular dystrophy spread equally rapidly when seeded on a glass substratum. Exposure to the ionophore monensin substantially suppresses dystrophic fibroblast spreading in serum-free media for up at least 100 min. Preincubation of causes further reduction cell spreading. Dystrophic fail as well cells after preincubation. Such findings indicate that there is delay secretion functional adhesive surface proteins...

At 7 weeks of age, a strain these birds bred for early onset this inherited disorder, physical weakness is established changes can be clearly assessed. Quantitative indices progressive were obtained by light electron microscopic analyses; cover fibre hypertrophy, area variation, nuclei distribution, phagocytosis satellite cell fibroblast populations. muscle at more severely...

Zfp-37 is a zinc finger protein gene expressed in male germ cells. The cDNA detected two transcripts on Northern blots of testis RNA, with expression first at around day 19. To establish the pattern we have raised antibodies to ZFP-37 and used them thin sections Western blots. On antibody proteins exclusively extracts, confirming previous mRNA data. A time-course study revealed that larger appears about 22 but smaller one not until 34. Analysis these purified cell preparations only...
