To investigate the roles of thiol proteases such as cathepsins and calpains in muscle differentiation, we have treated primary cultures of pectoralis muscle with a variety of protease inhibitors and examined the effects these agents have on myoblast fusion and myofibrillogenesis. We have found that

We have studied an indirect role of serine and thiol proteases in the activation of human neutrophils in vitro. Stimulation was evaluated using a chemiluminescence (CL) generation system. Receptor-dependent and receptor-independent stimuli were studied, e.g. opsonized zymosan, formyl-methionyl-leucy
The adsorption of diphenoxylate hydrochloride, a POtent antidiarrheal agent, on activated charcoal powder was studied in uitro. Langmuir adsorption isotherms were established a t pH 4 and 7, and the maximum adsorption capacity of charcoal for this drug was estimated using these values. Activated cha
## Abstract PTP–PEST is involved in the regulation of sealing ring formation in osteoclasts. In this article, we have shown a regulatory role for PTP–PEST on dephosphorylation of c‐Src at Y527 and phosphorylation at Y418 in the catalytic site. Activation of Src in osteoclasts by over‐expression of
