Human diploid fibroblasts (HDFs) undergo a limited number of population doublings in culture before reaching the end of their proliferative life span, an event termed in vitro cellular senescence. Considerable evidence suggests that altered expression of key genes involved in the mitogenic response

## Abstract The catalytic subunit of Ξ³βglutamylcysteine ligase (GCLC) catalyses the rateβlimiting step in the de novo synthesis of glutathione (GSH), which is involved in maintaining intracellular redox balance. GSH is especially important for antioxidant defense system since betaβcells show intrin
Signaling pathways responsible for serotonin (5-HT)-mediated induction of early response genes prostaglandin G/H synthase-2 (PGHS-2, cyclooxygenase-2) and egr-1 were investigated in rat mesangial cells. Gene induction by 5-HT was dependent on 5-HT 2A receptors that were pertussis toxin insensitive i
The detection of novel stimuli is a memory-dependent process. The presented stimulus has to be compared with memory contents to judge its novelty. In addition, the novelty of stimuli activates attention-related processes that facilitate memory formation. To determine the involvement of limbic and ne
