Defective protein kinase C (PKC) has been implicated in impaired Na+ ,K + -ATPase activity in the sciatic nerve of streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats . In the present study, a, ßl, ßll,~y, S, and e isoform-specific antibodies were used in parallel to the measurement of compound PKC activity for the characterization of PKC distribution and isoform expression in sciatic nerves of normal and diabetic rats . To distinguish isoform expression between the axonal and glial compartments, PKC isoforms were evaluated im nerves subjected to Wallerian degeneration and in a pure primary Schwann cell culture . a, ßl, ßII, S, and
Actinomycosis should be considered in patients with pelvic mass or abdominal wall mass that mimics a malignancy. Antibiotic therapy is the first treatment choice and makes a more invasive surgical management unnecessary.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
