Biological researchers report the identity of a previously elusive subunit of a neurotransmitter in C. elegans. The finding may have applicability to research on the human nervous system. Researchers ...

Zinc and nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs) seem to be associated with major depression, and some antidepressants, including fluoxetine (Prozac), antagonize nAChRs. Therefore, a study was made ...

We all learned in high school biology that mitochondria are the powerhouse of the cell. But powering up those cellular engines requires a molecular spark. Now, scientists at the Salk Institute have ...

Although FGF signaling promotes myoblast proliferation and represses myogenic differentiation, one of the FGF receptors (FGFR), FGFR4, is expressed mainly in mature skeletal muscle. Disruption of ...
