SnapShot: Nuclear Receptors I

A Tale of Tailless

Drosophila Tailless (Tll) and its vertebrate homologue Tlx are conserved orphan nuclear receptors specifically expressed in the eye and the forebrain. Tll and Tlx act primarily as transcriptional repressors through their interactions with transcriptional corepressors, Atrophin family proteins, and histone-tail/chromatin-modifying factors such as lysine-specific histone demethylase 1 and histone...

SnapShot: Nuclear Receptors II

Estrogen-related receptors* ERRα/NR3B1; ERRβ/NR3B2; ERRγ/NR3B3 All major systems with specific isoforms showing peaks of expression in metabolic tissues (ERRα and ERRβ) and the CNS (ERRγ) Structurally homologous to estrogen receptors; bind EREs but not activated by estrogens; modulate the expression of enzymes involved in adipogenesis, energy metabolism, and synthesis of lipids, eicosanoids, an...

Who? What? Where? A snapshot of Nuclear Medicine Research Presentations from recent ANZSNM conferences in Australia and New Zealand.

Objective(s): The aims of this study were to: 1) discover location (by city) of contributors to poster and oral presentations at recent ANZSNM conferences; 2) determine the nuclear medicine themes most commonly explored; 3) establish institutions producing the highest number of oral and poster abstracts and 4) determine publication rates of conference abstracts to full...
