We have detected by immunoblotting analysis of crude fractions from suckling and adult rat brain, resolved by two-dimensional isoelectric focusing-dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, the presence of two different forms of the beta subunit of polypeptide initiation factor 2 (eIF-2). These two forms differ in their apparent molecular weights and also in their isoelectric point values. Quantitation of both forms in the crude fractions shows that, the most basic form beta 1 (pI: 6.1, 52 kDa), is present in higher levels of the salt wash ribosomal fractions obtained from both, suckling and adult animals, than in the postmicrosomal fraction corresponding to the same animals. The most acidic form, beta 2 (pI: 5.9, 50 kDa), is present in the highest level in the postmicrosomal supernatant from adult animals. A close parallelism is found between beta 1 levels and eIF-2 activity.

Ovarian cancer is the seventh most common lethal tumor among women in the world. FOXM1 is a transcription factor implicated in the initiation and progression of ovarian cancer by regulating key oncogenic genes. The role of regulatory regions in regulating the expression of FOXM1 in ovarian cancer is not completely clarified.

Fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23) via its coreceptor αKlotho (KL) provides critical control of phosphate metabolism, which is altered in both rare and very common syndromes. However, the spatial-temporal mechanisms dictating kidney FGF23 functions remain poorly understood. Thus, developing approaches to modify specific FGF23-dictated pathways has proven problematic.

Background: Allergic rhinitis (AR) represents a persistent inflammatory condition affecting the upper respiratory tract, characterized by abnormal initiation of the immunoglobulin E (IgE)-mediated cascade. Follicular helper T (Tfh) cells and regulatory T (Tfr) cells are pivotal in orchestrating the development of IgE production in AR patients. IL-35, an anti-inflammatory cytokine, secreted by various cellular subpopulations.

Background: Lower urinary tract disease is a common clinical condition in dogs, usually presenting with dysuria, pollakiuria and haematuria. Diabetes mellitus is a predisposing factor for urinary tract infection in both humans and dogs and does not necessarily present with clinical signs. In this case report, we describe for the first time a case of cystitis glandularis in a dog with diabetes mellitus, associated with Escherichia coli urinary tract infection.
