13. Chronic stress alters synaptic terminal structure in hippocampus
Repeated psychosocial or restraint stress causes atrophy of apical dendrites in CA3 pyramidal neurons of the hippocampus, accompanied by specific cognitive deficits in spatial learning and memory. Excitatory amino acids mediate this atrophy together with adrenal steroids and the neurotransmitter serotonin. Because the mossy fibers from dentate granule neuron

14. Developmental and molecular aspects of nephroblastomas induced by avian myeloblastosis-associated virus 2-O.
Avian myeloblastosis-associated virus-induced nephroblastomas are tumors consisting mainly of mesenchymal and epithelial renal elements with variable degrees of differentiation. The spatial distribution of developmental stages reflects a gradient of differentiation from less differential structures in the periphery towards more differentiated structures in t

15. Gene recombination in postmitotic cells. Targeted expression of Cre recombinase provokes cardiac-restricted, site-specific rearrangement in adult ventricular muscle in vivo.
Mouse models of human disease can be generated by homologous recombination for germline loss-of-function mutations. However, embryonic-lethal phenotypes and systemic, indirect dysfunction can confound the use of knock-outs to elucidate adult pathophysiology. Site-specific recombination using Cre recombinase can circumvent these pitfalls, in principle, enabli

16. Synaptic pattern formation during cellular recognition
Cell–cell recognition often requires the formation of a highly organized pattern of receptor proteins (a synapse) in the intercellular junction. Recent experiments [e.g., Monks, C. R. F., Freiberg, B. A., Kupfer, H., Sciaky, N. & Kupfer, A. (1998) Nature (London) 395, 82–86; Grakoui, A., Bromley, S. K., Sumen, C., Davis, M. M., Shaw, A. S., Allen,

17. Structural rearrangement of infecting Sindbis virions at the cell surface: mapping of newly accessible epitopes.
Sindbis virus glycoproteins E1 and E2 undergo a conformational alteration during early virus-cell interaction at the cell surface (D. Flynn, W. J. Meyer, J. M. MacKenzie, Jr., and R. E. Johnston, J. Virol. 64:3643-3653, 1990). Certain epitopes normally internal on native virus become accessible to monoclonal antibody (MAb) binding after attachment but before

18. Ras-related GTPases and the cytoskeleton.
Incorporation of the available data on rac in neutrophils, CDC42 in yeast, and rho in fibroblasts suggests a general model for the function of rho-like GTPase (Figure 1). Conversion of an inactive cytoplasmic rho-related p21GDP/GDI complex to active p21. GTP occurs by inhibition of GAP and/or stimulation of exchange factors in response to cell signals. p21.G
