His-Phe-Tyr-Leu-Pro-Met (HFYLPM) is a synthetic peptide that stimulates Jurkat T cells resulting in intracellular calcium ([Ca2+]i) increase in a pertussis toxin (PTX)-sensitive manner. We have examined the physiological role of...
The localization of estrogen (E2) has been clearly shown in hippocampus, called local hippocampal E2. It enhanced neuronal synaptic plasticity and protected neuron form cerebral ischemia, similar to those effects...

The chronic myelogenous leukemic K562 cell line carrying Bcr-Abl tyrosine kinase
is considered as pluripotent hematopoietic progenitor cells expressing markers
for erythroid, granulocytic, monocytic, and megakaryocytic lineages. Here we
investigated the signaling modulations...
Akt/protein kinase B is a well-known cell survival factor and activated by many stimuli including mechanical stretching. Therefore, we evaluated the cardioprotective effect of a brief mechanical stretching of rat...
