Ferroptosis, a non-apoptotic form of programmed cell death, is triggered by oxidative stress
in cancer, heat stress in plants, and hemorrhagic stroke. A homeostatic transcriptional …

More than 1 billion people around the world smoke, with 10 million cigarettes sold every
minute. Cigarettes contain thousands of harmful chemicals including the psychoactive …

Acetylcholinesterase is a key molecule in the control of cholinergic transmission. In the
mammalian neuromuscular junction (NMJ), the efficiency of this phenomenon depends on …

A quantitative trait locus (QTL) for milk fat percentage has been mapped consistently to the
centromeric region of bovine chromosome 14 (BTA14). Two independent studies have …

The association between the congenital absence of colonic ganglion cells and an increased
acetylcholinesterase (AChE) expression in the affected tissue is of diagnostic importance in …

In the adrenal medulla, acetylcholine released by the sympathetic splanchnic nerves
activates neuronal‐type nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs) on the membrane of …

Nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs) are ligand-gated ion channels that modulate key
physiological processes ranging from neurotransmission to cancer signaling. These …

Tau, a microtubule‐associated protein, is encoded by a single gene, whose expression is
primarily neuronal. In this work, we defined an 80‐bp region of the tau promoter that confers …

Neuronal nicotinic acetylcholine receptors play important roles in signal transduction within
the nervous system. The receptors exist in a variety of functionally distinct subtypes that are …

Acetylcholinesterase in man is encoded by a single gene, ACHE, located on chromosome
7q22. In this study, the transcription start sites and major DNA promoter elements controlling …
