The Rapid Effect of Bisphenol-A on Long-Term Potentiation in Hippocampus Involves Estrogen Receptors and ERK Activation by Xiaowei Chen, Yu Wang, Fang Xu, Xiaofei Wei, Junfang Zhang, Chuang Wang, Hua Wei, Shujun Xu, Peiyun Yan, Wenhua Zhou, Istvan Mody, Xiaohong Xu, Qinwen Wang

“…The rapid facilitatory effect of low-dose BPA on hippocampal LTP required membrane-associated estrogen receptor (ER) and involved activation of the extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) signaling pathway. Coadministration of 17β-estradiol (E2, the primary estrogen hormone) and BPA (100 nM) abolished both the BPA-induced enhancement of LTP and the E2-induced enhancement of baseline fEPSP, suggesting a complex interaction between BPA- and E2-mediated signaling pathways. …”

The S4G-WISE View of Global Star Formation in the Nearby Universe by M. E. Cluver, T. H. Jarrett, D. A. Dale, J.-D. T. Smith, M. J. I. Brown, W. van Kempen, E. Lengerer, R. Incoll, C. Davey, R. Holloway, J. Cameron, K. Sheth

“…This is achieved by combining WISE with existing Galaxy Evolution Explorer ultraviolet (UV) photometry, which we further use to explore the relationship between dust and UV emission as a function of morphology. Finally, we use our derived SFR prescriptions to examine the location of galaxies in the log SFR–log M _stellar plane, as a function of morphological type, which underscores the complexity of dust-derived properties seen in galaxies of progressively earlier type.…”
