989 Yang, KevinThe Soluble (PRO) Renin Receptor does not Influence Lithium-Induced Diabetes Insipidus but does Provoke Beigning of White Adipose Tissue in MiceEarlier we reported that the recombinant soluble (pro) renin receptor sPRR-His upregulates renal aquoporin-2 (AQP2) expression, and attenuates polyuria associated with nephrogenic diabetes insipidus (NDI) induced by vasopressin type 2 receptor (V2R) antagonism. Patients that receive lithium therapy ...
990 Peterson, MikalSomatic chromosome pairing in interspecific drosophila hybrid and hybried rescue crossesHomologous chromosomes of somatic tissue pair together in Drosophila. One current model proposes that somatic pairing starts in an undirected manner; when sites on the chromosome, called "buttons", come into contact and pair. Then, after this initial pairing, the rest of the chromosome then synapses...2022
