Mammalian cells are frequently under stress leading to DNA damage because of UV exposure, ionizing radiation or genotoxic chemicals. Cells have evolved a DNA damage response (DDR) mechanism to ensure survival and pass on the correct genetic information to the next generation. MITF is a melanocyte-specific transcription factor.

During the progressive, Peronist, ‘post-neoliberal’ Kirchner administrations (2003-2015), gove
AIMS: Induction of iNOS in pancreatic islets leads to exaggerated NO production associated with dysfunctional β-cells. We examined insulin secretion, iNOS expression and its relation to the cAMP system in islets from human type 2 diabetes. METHODS: Insulin, glucagon and cAMP were analyzed by RIA; iNOS or PDE expression by qPCR, Western blot and confocal microscopy; cell viability by MTS. RESU
Intracellular Ca2+ was determined with the fura-2 technique during electrically induced contractions in the rabbit rectococcygeus smooth muscle at 22 degreesC. The muscles were electrically activated to give short, reproducible contractions. Intracellular [Ca2+] increased during activation; the increase in [Ca2+] preceded force development by approximately 2 s. After cessation of stimulation Ca2+
