Increases in lumbar spine BMD account for 30-41% of the vertebral fracture risk reduction with teriparatide treatment. The remaining fracture risk reduction is caused by improvements in non-BMD determinants of bone strength.

    Daniel M Kraus, Liping Feng, and Chad A Grotegut

    Reprod Sci (2013) PMID 23653390

    We hypothesized that CSE alters trophoblast invasion through an AM-mediated mechanism, and that placental AM expression is greater among smokers. HTR-8/SVneo trophoblast cells were incubated for 24 hours in Matrigel-invasion chambers with 6 treatment groups: nonstimulated (NS), AM, AM inhibitor (AM2...

    One water-soluble polysaccharide (PEPw), with an average molecular weight of 2.5×10(4)Da, was isolated from the fruiting bodies of Pleurotus eryngii and subjected to composition analysis and evaluated for the antitumor and immunomodulatory activity. PEPw was composed of arabinose, m...
  3. Adenylyl Cyclase Anchoring by A kinase Anchor Protein AKAP5 (AKAP79/150) is Important for Postsynaptic β-Adrenergic Signaling.
    Mingxu Zhang, Tommaso Patriarchi, and Johannes W Hell

    J Biol Chem (2013) PMID 23649627

    We now show that postsynaptic targeting of AC by AKAP5 is important for phosphorylation of the AMPA-type glutamate receptor subunit GluA1 on S845 by PKA and for synaptic plasticity. Phosphorylation of GluA1 on S845 is strongly reduced (by 70%) under basal conditions in AKAP5 KO mice but not at all i...
