Endocrine Actions of Osteocalcin by Aurora Patti, Luigi Gennari, Daniela Merlotti, Francesco Dotta, Ranuccio Nuti

“…Osteocalcin is the most abundant noncollagenous protein of bone matrix. Once transcribed, this protein undergoes posttranslational modifications within osteoblastic cells before its secretion, including the carboxylation of three glutamic residues in glutamic acid, which is essential for hydroxyapatite binding and deposition in the extracellular matrix of bone. …”

Altered Expression of Cellular Bcl-2 in the Progression of Hamster Cholangiocarcinogenesis by Byung-suk Jeon, Byung-IL Yoon

“…The role of Bcl-2 is, however, still controversial in cholangiocarcinogenesis because of the discrepancies in the expression of the protein. In the present study, alteration in the expression of Bcl-2 in cholangiocarcinogenesis was investigated by studying the immunoreactivities of this protein in normal, hyperplastic bile ducts with or without dysplastic changes, and neoplastic bile duct cells from a hamster cholangiocarcinoma (ChC) model. …”

Intraneuronal binding of amyloid beta with reelin-Implications for the onset of Alzheimer's disease. by Asgeir Kobro-Flatmoen, Stig W Omholt

“…In a rat model used to study AD, it was recently shown that in layer II neurons of the anteriolateral entorhinal cortex expressing high levels of the glycoprotein reelin (Re+alECLII neurons), reelin and Aβ engage in a direct protein-protein interaction. If reelin functions as a sink for intracellular Aβ and if the binding to reelin makes Aβ physiologically inert, it implies that reelin can prevent the neuron from being exposed to the harmful effects typically associated with increased levels of oligomeric Aβ. …”
