(2023-03-29)
The global epidemic of obesity has led to an increasing number of obese women in childbearing age. It is now understood that maternal obesity has harmful consequences on fetal and adult health. The underlying mechanism of ...
Inhibition of heterotrimeric Gs proteins by FR900359 - more than a simple transfer of the inhibitor binding site
(2023-03-07)
A plethora of vital functions of the human body, including blood pressure, cell proliferation and metabolism are regulated by G protein-mediated signaling cascades. These cascades form a complex network of cause and effect ...
Investigating pathomechanisms underlying malformations of human cortical development
(2023-06-15)
During human development the brain has to form a complex neuronal network requiring a well-orchestrated sequence of neurogenesis, neuronal migration and correct positioning within cortical layers followed by synaptogenesis. ...
Development and optimization of analytical methods for identifying and quantifying organic compounds in biological and paleontological specimens
(2023-12-01)
Preservation of soft tissues is a rare phenomenon which leads to the formation of fossils that survive for millions of years and are then subject to investigations by paleontologists. Several classes of chemical compounds ......
