The present study was designed to examine the histochemical changes and occurrence of apoptosis in taste buds of rat circumvallate papillae following bilateral transection of the glossopharyngeal nerve. Following transection of the glossopharyngeal nerve, the number of taste buds was not altered

A vernalization-related gene VER2 was isolated from winter wheat ( Triticum aestivum L.) using a differential screening approach. The deduced VER2 is a lectin-like protein of 300 amino acids, which contains the presence of a jacalin-like GWG domain. RNA in situ hybridization results demonstrated

Lectin-binding patterns of vomeronasal respiratory epithelium (VRE) in rats were histochemically examined with 21 biotinylated-lectins. The VRE consists of ciliated and basal cells. The majority of ciliated cells had light cytoplasm, and the others were dark cells seemingly degenerating. On the free

We have previously demonstrated hyposialylation of the two major CD45 and leukosialin (CD43) molecules at the surface of latently human immunodeficiency virus type 1-infected CEM T cells (CEMLAI/NP), (Lefebvre, J. C., Giordanengo, V., Doglio, A., Cagnon, L., Breittmayer, J. P., Peyron, J. F., and
