A baby sucks at a mother's breast for comfort and, of course, for milk. Milk is made in specialized cells of the mammary gland, and for a baby to feed, the milk must be released into a collecting chamber from where it can be extracted by su...

Recent experimental evidence is shedding more light on the physiological actions of acylation-stimulating protein (ASP)/C3adesArg. The role of ASP in regulating lipid metabolism has primarily focused on its participation in the stimulation ...
ATP-dependent chromatin remodeling complexes and their role in nuclear receptor-dependent transcription in vivo [0.03%]
依赖ATP的染色质重塑复合体及其在体内核受体介导的转录中的作用
