Using lactic acid for skin care can help you have a smoother, brighter complexion. As a gentle alpha hydroxy acid (AHA), lactic acid removes dead skin cells, lightens dark spots, and improves the look ...

Among the millions of diatom species out there, just 28 in the genus Pseudo-nitzschia are known to produce a harmful neurotoxin called domoic acid, something you really don't want in your seafood.

Receptor pharmacology is the study of the interactions of receptors with drugs/pharmaceuticals and other xenobiotics. A basic tenet of receptor pharmacology is that a drug’s effect is directly ...

High-resolution microscopic images of T cells that have been engineered with TGF-beta SNIPRs (shown in red) as they bind to TGF-beta (shown in green). The SNIPRs activate once the receptors fold into ...

Analyzing soil types is much easier than it sounds. Finding out how to test the pH of soil enables you to determine whether it's acid or alkaline, and can be done with a simple soil test kit, such as ...

Changes in the number of synaptic AMPA receptors underlie many forms of synaptic plasticity. These variations are controlled by an interplay between their intracellular transport (IT), export to the ...

It wouldn't be a Dungeness crab season without a hiccup. The Oregon Department of Agriculture, on the Wednesday before Thanksgiving, discovered elevated levels of domoic acid in razor clams in ...

Crabbers can also help with gear recovery after May 1. "Due to low levels of domoic acid in recent crab samples taken from all coastal WA sample locations, WDFW is removing evisceration requirements ...

Mechanistically, NMDA receptors mediate LTD by dephosphorylating AMPA receptors and removing them from the synaptic membrane by endocytosis. This process also requires calcium influx through the ...
