The mucosa of the functioning pelvic ileal pouch undergoes loss of villous height and an increase in crypt cell proliferation as an adaptive response to its new luminal environment. These changes can occur in the absence of inflammation and could be mediated by growth factors such as transforming gr

Tachykinin (TK) peptides act on retinal neurons through neurokinin (NK) receptors. We examined the expression of neurokinin-1 (NK1; the substance P receptor), NK3 [the neurokinin B (NKB) receptor], and TK peptides in developing rat retinas. NK1 immunolabeling was found in newborn retinas in rare ama
Growth plate chondrocytes make TGF-1 in latent form (LTGF-1) and store it in the extracellular matrix via LTGF-1 binding protein (LTBP1). 1,25-(OH) 2 D 3 (1,25) regulates matrix protein production in growth zone (GC) chondrocyte cultures, whereas 24,25-(OH) 2 D 3 (24,25) does so in resting zone (
## Abstract We have shown that the stimulation of β‐adrenergic receptors (β‐AR) increases apoptosis in adult rat ventricular myocytes (ARVMs). Integrins, a family of αβ‐heterodimeric cell surface receptors, are postulated to play a role in ventricular remodeling. Here, we show that norepinephrine (
