At the neuromuscular junction of the lobster, for example, the neurotransmitters serotonin and octopamine and the neuropeptide proctolin can act presynaptically to alter the amounts of GABA or glutamate released from the nerve terminals.
The present study characterizes the fiber type composition of selected hindlimb muscles from two transgenic mouse lines specifically engineered to alter the amounts of circulating growth hormone (GH) and insulin-like growth factor-1 (IFG-1).
Of course, the better practitioners of the art of borrowing are generally smart enough at least to alter the amounts of the ingredients: i.e., make it 6 ounces of shredded caciocavallo cheese rather than 3 1/2 and change the wording of the instructions.
Expression of VAPB or VAPBP56S did not alter the amounts of kinesin-1 that were associated with myc-Miro1 in these experiments (Fig. 2).
Spencer went on to say that a better test of his interpretation of Karen's claim regarding "which factors add to the weight of the plant" would be to alter the amounts of each factor (Table 4).
Thus, expression of VAPBP56S does not alter the amounts of kinesin-1 or TRAK1 that are associated with Miro1, but rather reduces the amount of tubulin that is associated with the Miro1/TRAK1/kinesin-1 complex.
