Two intrastrain variants of herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) were isolated from a newborn with fatal disseminated infection. A small-plaque-producing variant (SP7) was the predominant virus (\textgreater99%) in the brain, and a…
Total RNA was extracted from a variety of rabbit tissues and reverse transcribed for use in the polymerase chain reaction technique. Using primers designed to amplify the membrane-bound liver cytochrome b5 cDNA, products of two sizes were observed.…
The anti-apoptotic protein Bcl-2 has been shown to function in roles unrelated to apoptosis in a variety of cell types. We have previously reported that loss of Bcl-2 expression alters chondrocyte morphology and modulates aggrecan expression via an…
