Background
The association between particulate matter (PM), including desert dust, and allergic symptoms has not been well studied. We examined whether PM exacerbated nose/eye/respiratory symptoms in infants, with a focus on the desert dust element, and assessed possible countermeasures.
Methods
We conducted a panel study of 1492 infants from October 2014 to July 2016 in 3 regions in Japan as an...
Background InformationCortactin contributes to growth cone morphogenesis by forming with dynamin, ring‐shaped complexes that mechanically bundle and stabilise F‐actin. However, the regulatory mechanism of cortactin action is poorly understood.
ResultsImmunofluorescence microscopy revealed that protein kinase C (PKC) α colocalises with cortactin at growth cone filopodia in SH‐SY5Y neuroblastoma cells...
Although synaptotagmin I, which is a calcium (Ca 2+ )-binding synaptic vesicle protein, may trigger soluble N-ethylmaleimide-sensitive factor attachment protein receptor (SNARE)-mediated synaptic vesicle exocytosis, the mechanisms underlying the interaction between these proteins remain controversial, especially with respect to the identity of the protein(s) in the SNARE complex that bind(s)...
