Grossberg's work in the past few years has revolved around the classification theory of non-elementary classes. In particular, he has provided, in joint work with Monica VanDieren, a proof of an upward "M... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mothers%20against%20decapentaplegic%20homolog%209 | Mothers against decapentaplegic homolog 9 also known as SMAD9, SMAD8, and MADH6 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the SMAD9 gene.
SMAD9, as its name describes, is a homolog of the Drosophila gene: "Mothers against decapentaplegic". It belongs to the SMAD family of proteins, which belong to the TGFβ superfamil... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/R-SMAD | R-SMADs are receptor-regulated SMADs. SMADs are transcription factors that transduce extracellular TGF-β superfamily ligand signaling from cell membrane bound TGF-β receptors into the nucleus where they activate transcription TGF-β target genes. R-SMADS are directly phosphorylated on their c-terminus by type 1 TGF-β r... |

An authority o... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Medium%20spiny%20neuron | Medium spiny neurons (MSNs), also known as spiny projection neurons (SPNs), are a special type of GABAergic inhibitory cell representing 95% of neurons within the human striatum, a basal ganglia structure. Medium spiny neurons have two primary phenotypes (characteristic types): D1-type MSNs of the direct pathway and D... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tolfenamic%20acid | Tolfenamic acid (Clotam, Tufnil) is a member of the anthranilic acid derivatives (or fenamate) class of NSAID drugs discovered by scientists at Medica Pharmaceutical Company in Finland. Like other members of the class, it is a COX inhibitor and prevents formation of prostaglandins.
It is used in the UK as a treatment... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mineralocorticoid%20receptor | The mineralocorticoid receptor (or MR, MLR, MCR), also known as the aldosterone receptor or nuclear receptor subfamily 3, group C, member 2, (NR3C2) is a protein that in humans is encoded by the NR3C2 gene that is located on chromosome 4q31.1-31.2.
MR is a receptor with equal affinity for mineralocorticoids and gluco... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apolipoprotein%20C-I | Apolipoprotein C-I is a protein component of lipoproteins that in humans is encoded by the APOC1 gene.
Function
The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the apolipoprotein C family. This gene is expressed primarily in the liver, and it is activated when monocytes differentiate into macrophages. Alternatively ... |

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neuropeptide%20Y%20receptor | Neuropeptide Y receptors are a family of receptors belonging to class A G-protein coupled receptors and they are activated by the closely related peptide hormones neuropeptide Y, peptide YY and pancreatic polypeptide. These receptors are involved in the control of a diverse set of behavioral processes including appet... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pseudorandom%20graph | In graph theory, a graph is said to be a pseudorandom graph if it obeys certain properties that random graphs obey with high probability. There is no concrete definition of graph pseudorandomness, but there are many reasonable characterizations of pseudorandomness one can consider.
Pseudorandom properties were first f... |

Inter-University Center for Japanese Language Studies, a Japanese language school locat... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SMAD%20%28protein%29 | Smads (or SMADs) comprise a family of structurally similar proteins that are the main signal transducers for receptors of the transforming growth factor beta (TGF-B) superfamily, which are critically important for regulating cell development and growth. The abbreviation refers to the homologies to the Caenorhabditis el... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spinal%20muscular%20atrophy | Spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) is a rare neuromuscular disorder that results in the loss of motor neurons and progressive muscle wasting. It is usually diagnosed in infancy or early childhood and if left untreated it is the most common genetic cause of infant death. It may also appear later in life and then have a milde... |
