Cloning and functional expression of cDNAs encoding human and rat pancreatic polypeptide receptors.
Yan, H, Yang, J, Marasco, J, Yamaguchi, K, Brenner, S, Collins, F, ...
PCR was used to isolate nucleotide sequences that may encode novel members of the neuropeptide Y receptor family. By use of a PCR product as a hybridization probe, a full-length human cDNA was...
Kenwrick, S J, Smith, T J, England, S, Collins, F, Davies, K E
We have used chromosome jumping technology to move from within a large intron sequence in the Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) gene to a region adjacent to exons of the gene. The single copy jump...
Dissociated parasympathetic neurons rapidly initiate neurite outgrowth when exposed to culture medium previously conditioned by the growth of embryonic heart cells. The inducer of neurite outgrowth...
Demsey, A, Collins, F, Kawka, D
HTG2 hamster cells produce a defective murine sarcoma virus lacking gp70 and, consequently, viral surface projections (knobs), but the lack of knobs appears to have no effect on intramembrane...
An effect of nerve growth factor on parasympathetic neurite outgrowth.
Addition of nerve growth factor (NGF) to dissociated parasympathetic ciliary ganglion neurons resulted, within 60 min of its addition, in a 2-fold increase in average neurite length and an...
Malignant melanotic schwannoma of the bronchus.
Rowlands, D, Edwards, C, Collins, F
A case of malignant melanotic schwannoma arising in the right upper lobe bronchus of a 27 year old man is presented. Tumours of this type most commonly occur in spinal nerve roots and are generally...
