An increasing number of patients are being treated with growth hormone (GH) for the enhancement of body growth but also as an anti-aging strategy. However, the side effects of GH have been poorly defined. In this study we determined the effect of GH on wou ...

Catalytic chemical vapour deposition (CCVD) is currently the most promising technique to produce carbon nanotubes (CNTs) on a specific site as well as on a large-scale. Here, we review our recent experimental studies on CNTs grown by CCVD. The yield as wel ...
Previous studies demonstrated that IGF-II binds directly to vitronectin (VN), whereas IGF-I binds poorly. However, binding of VN to integrins has been demonstrated to be essential for a range of IGF-I-stimulated biological effects, including IGF binding pr ...
OBJECTIVE: The peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-gamma (PPARgamma) plays a role in adipocyte differentiation and insulin sensitization. It has been shown that genetic variation in the PPARgamma gene alters body weight control, lipid and insulin ho ...

14-3-3 proteins are evolutionarily conserved and ubiquitous proteins that function in a wide variety of biological processes. Here we define a new role for C. elegans 14-3-3 proteins in life span regulation. We identify two C. elegans 14-3-3 proteins as in ...
We have previously reported that IGF-II binds the extracellular matrix protein vitronectin (VN) with an affinity similar to that for the type-1 IGF receptor (IGF-1R). In view of this finding, and given the cited role of VN in cell motility and adhesion, we ...
The development of new therapeutic approaches that aim to help the body exert its natural mechanisms for vascularized tissue growth (therapeutic angiogenesis) has become one of the most active areas of tissue engineering. Through basic research, several gr ...
Encapsulation of the protein drug hGH in degradable polyethylene glycol-based hydrogel microspheres was demonstrated to result in burst-free release appropriate for a once-per-week prepn. of the drug. Small needle sizes, lack of burst, and lack of local in ...
We have examined the effects of hGRF on cyclic AMP and glycogen levels in mouse cerebral cortical slices. hGRF-44-NH2 and hGRF-28-OH did not stimulate cyclic AMP formation nor glycogenolysis and did not antagonize the stimulatory effects of VIP on cyclic A ...
