In eukaryotes, tRNAs transcribed in the nucleus function in cytoplasmic protein synthesis. The Ran-GTP-binding exportin, Los1p/Xpo-t, and additional pathway(s) mediate tRNA transport to the cytoplasm.

Symptomatically, depressive periods are characterized by decreased energy, paralleled by reduced brain energy generation. 1, 2 This is highlighted by clinical studies examining glucose utilization, ...

We used a microarray approach to measure genome-wide mRNA expression in nucleus accumbens tissue from 26 donors (see Table 1 for demographic and related sample information) with known loneliness ...

The nucleus is the defining organelle of eukaryotic cells and is primarily known as the repository of the cell’s genome. Yet, the nucleus is much more than this. It is the biggest and stiffest ...

From middle school biology we were always taught that the nucleus is the “control center” of the cell, similar to how the brain is the control center of our own bodies. At first glance this makes a ...

Consistent with the results of previous lesion studies, reversible inactivation of amygdala central nucleus function during pairings of an auditory CS with food prevented the acquisition of ...

The caudate nucleus (CN; plural “caudate nuclei”) is a paired, “C”-shaped subcortical structure which lies deep inside the brain near the thalamus. It plays a critical role in various higher ...

Major finding on the tuberal nucleus broadens our understanding of the brain's role in regulating metabolism and food intake, and offers a new avenue of research that can help combat obesity SINGAPORE ...
