## Abstract Chondroitin sulfate proteoglycans have been shown to participate in the pathogenesis of neuronal damages in the injured adult central nervous system (CNS). Upregulated expression of chondroitin sulfate proteoglycans has been reported around the injured sites and depletion of these chond
Degradation of the extracellular matrix (ECM) is an essential step in tumour invasion and metastasis. The matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) each have different substrate specificities within the ECM and are important in its degradation. MMP activity is dependent on the levels of activated MMP and tis
This paper reports changes in maternal behavior of rats following progestin treatment of the neonates. There have been recent reports that hormonal treatment of pups can alter maternal behavior, particularly licking of pups, and that such effects might have implications for the later development of
## Abstract The role of regucalcin, which is a regulatory protein in intracellular signaling, in the regulation of Ca^2+^βATPase activity in the mitochondria of brain tissues was investigated. The addition of regucalcin (10^β10^ to 10^β8^ M), which is a physiologic concentration in rat brain tissue
