Recently, the neurotoxic amyloid ␤-peptide was shown to up-regulate polyamine metabolism by increasing ornithine decarboxylase (ODC) activity and polyamine uptake by initiating free radical damage in Alzheimer's disease (AD). 1 Because of these findings, polyamines have been considered to play an im

BACKGROUND. The possibility was investigated that complex homeostatic mechanisms which maintain polyamine pools in prostate-derived tumors may differ from those which are typically seen in other tissues and tumors. METHODS. Growth sensitivity and various regulatory responses were investigated in thr

## Abstract The inferior pharyngeal constrictor (IPC) muscle functions during swallowing, respiration, and vocalization. The most‐caudal portion of the IPC is believed to be part of the functional upper esophageal sphincter (UES). We hypothesized that the caudal fibers of the human IPC may have enz
