## Abstract Ferritin is an ironβsequestering protein that is generally cytoplasmic; however, our previous studies have shown that in avian corneal epithelial (CE) cells ferritin is nuclear. We have also observed that this nuclear localization involves a tissueβspecific nuclear transporter that we h
In primates, prenatal transfer of IgG from mother to offspring occurs predominantly across the placenta. Although a number of Fcgamma-receptors and IgG binding proteins have been detected in human placental tissue, an involvement of any of these receptors in IgG transport across the syncytiotrophobl
Both acetylcholine (ACh) and serotonin (5-HT) lowered the serosa-negative transepithelial potential difference (PD) and the short-circuit current (Isc), accompanied by a decrease in NaCl and water absorption across the eel intestine. These inhibitory effects of ACh and 5-HT were blocked by atropine,
