  • its structural components include not only tight junctions (TJs), but also gap junctions (GJs) and atypical adherens junctional complexes - ectoplasmic specialization (ES) [ 1 , 2 ]. (biomedcentral.com)
  • A light flash decreases the dark current and hyperpolarizes the photoreceptors relative to the dark state, reducing the amount of inhibitory neurotransmitters released onto the bipolar cell. (medscape.com)
  • The bipolar cells, no longer inhibited, release neurotransmitters, which stimulate the ganglion cells to generate action potentials. (medscape.com)
  • Inhibitors,Modulators,Libraries Here, the computationally predicted functional purpose for Stat3 in primitive, but not definitive, erythroid cell maturation is validated in vitro. (hdac-inhibitors.com)
  • In the interstitial compartment, however, short-term exposure leads to both histological and functional changes of the Leydig cells. (biomedcentral.com)
  • The neural signals initially processed by the retina travel via the axons of the ganglion cells through the optic nerves, dividing and partially crossing over into the optic chiasm and then travelling via the optic tracts to the lateral geniculate nucleus (LGN). (medscape.com)
  • The primary line of information transmission is from photoreceptor to bipolar cell to ganglion cell and then to the brain, but the amacrine and horizontal cells provide lateral transmission lines that can produce the complicated center-surround receptive fields of ganglion cells. (medscape.com)
  • In a number of animal species, MZT roughly coincides with the mid-blastula transition (MBT) [ 20 ] when cells become motile and divide asynchronously. (biomedcentral.com)
  • Re pression of ErbB23 signaling coincides together with the repres Inhibitors,Modulators,Libraries sion of many of its interaction partners. (hdac-inhibitors.com)
  • The roles of miR-139-5p in CRC cells with and without KRAS mutation were determined by Cell Counting Kit-8 (CCK-8), colony formation, flow cytometry and transwell assays in vitro and by tumorigenesis and metastasis assays in vivo . (thno.org)
  • Larazotide acetate (LA, Innovate Biopharmaceuticals, Inc., Raleigh, NC) is a synthetic, eight amino acid peptide that is known to act as a TJ regulator capable of closing 'leaky' interepithelial junctions. (ecco-ibd.eu)
  • Today, it is generally thought that the combination of determinants deposited by the mother during oogenesis and the inductive signals between different cells trigger the specification of different cell lineages during development of the embryo [ 7 , 8 ]. (biomedcentral.com)
  • Ras signaling is constitutively active in a large number of human cancers. (oncotarget.com)
