Previous investigations suggest that the expression of K+ channels in cultured rat microglia is related to the activation status of these cells. Both, lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and agents that raise intracellular cyclic AMP have been shown to inhibit microglial proliferation. LPS also regulates the m
## Abstract Induction of myelin gene expression denotes the last stage of differentiation of myelinating glial cells. Following peripheral nerve transection, Schwann cells (SC) lose myelin gene expression and proliferate, resembling premyelinating embryonic SC (eSC). We show that a fusion protein o
ferase reporter gene construct under the control of a PCK In cultured rat hepatocytes, the gluconeogenic key enzyme, phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (PCK), is induced by gene promoter fragment (base 0979 to base /32). Luciferase activity was determined after stimulation of the cells with glucagon
## Abstract Estrogen receptor (ER)βΞ± can signal either via estrogen response element (ERE)βmediated pathways or via alternate pathways involving proteinβprotein or membrane signaling. We previously demonstrated that, as compared to wild type (WT) controls, mice expressing a mutant ERβΞ± lacking the
