Estradiol 17b-D-glucuronide (E 2 17G) is an endogenous, cholestatic metabolite that induces endocytic internalization of the canalicular transporters relevant to bile secretion: bile salt export pump (Bsep) and multidrug resistance-associated protein 2 (Mrp2). We assessed whether phosphoinositide 3-

We recently reported that extracellular ATP was mitogenic for Swiss 3T3, 3T6, and A431 cells (Huang et al.: Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA, 86:7904-7908, 1989). Here we examined the possible involvement of activation of the protein kinase C (PKC) signal transduction pathway in the mechanism of action o
We studied the effects of endotoxin from Escherichiu coli (E. coli) on Ca2+ channel activity in PC12 cells using the cell-attached patch clamp technique. Endotoxin (1-100 nglml) decreased channel availability (n -Po) to about one third of control values, an effect that required 3.5 & 1 min (mean & S
The stimulated secretion of prostatic acid phosphatase (PAcP) has been known to be a hallmark of androgen action on human prostate epithelial cells for the last five decades. The molecular mechanism of androgen action on PAcP secretion, however, has remained mostly unknown. We investigated the molec
## Abstract Polychlorinated biphenyls (PCB) are persistent environmental contaminants whose chronic exposure can affect nervous system development and function. The cellular and molecular mechanisms underlying neuronal damage are not yet clear. In the present study, we investigated whether nitric o
## Abstract Parathyroid hormone (PTH), an anabolic agent for bone metabolism, has profound effects on gene expression in the osteoblast. Recently, we identified that amphiregulin (AR), an EGFโlike ligand, is an immediate early gene for PTH treatment and has an important role in bone metabolism. In
