In the fruit fly Drosophila, odorant-binding proteins are secreted into the fluid that bathes olfactory neurons. Laughlin et al. (2008) now challenge the assumption that the odorant-binding protein LUSH passively transports its pheromone to a specific olfactory receptor. Instead, LUSH undergoes a conformational change upon pheromone binding that is sufficient for neuronal activation.

Ion and water reabsorption by the kidney tubular wall is conceived as occurring mainly across the cells proper, transcellular pathway(l,2). In addition, the existence of a pathway in parallel to this transcellular pathway-a paracellular pathway has been proposed(3-5) based mainly on the observation that in Necturus proximal tubule the measured transtubular resistance is, at least, 10 times smal...

Aim and objective: The aim of the study is to associate salivary calcium and phosphate in oral health. Background: Salivary glandular secretion which constantly bathes the teeth and oral mucosa. Presence of saliva is vital for healthy oral tissue. Positive correlation has been shown in salivary calcium and phosphate and oral health. Reason: To associate role of salivary calcium and phosphate in...

This paper discusses proposed solutions offers new suggestion...

The male reproductive system (Figure 1) consists of a series of glandular, muscular, and ciliated tubes and diverticula dedicated to the production, storage, nourishment, and activation of spermatozoa, and to their transport into the female reproductive tract. There are three products of the system: the germ cells, the seminal fluid that bathes them when they are emitted, and hormones that regu...
