7. The Role of Protein Kinase C in the Extracellular Ca2+-regulated Secretion of Parathyroid Hormone
Abstract : Parathyroid hormone (PTH) is the major physiological regulator of the extracellular Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]o) in the body. The secretion of this hormone is suppressed at high [Ca2+]o. READ MORE

8. Origin, release and functional significance of the novel gastric hormone ghrelin
Abstract : The novel gastric hormone ghrelin was discovered by virtue of its ability to release growth hormone (GH) via interaction with the so-called GH-secretagogue receptor (GHS-R). Earlier only synthetic agents were known to bind with the GHS-R, hence, ghrelin is the first identified endogenous ligand. READ MORE

9. Molecular mechanisms of biphasic insulin secretion
Abstract : Pancreatic beta-cells secrete insulin in response to increase in blood glucose concentration with a rapid first phase and slower, sustained second phase. This secretion pattern is similar in entire pancreas, isolated islets of Langerhans and single beta-cells and it is disrupted in type 2-diabetes. READ MORE

10. Coordinating type III secretion system biogenesis in Yersinia pseudotuberculosis
Abstract : Various Gram-negative bacteria utilize type III secretion system (T3SS) to deliver effectors into eukaryotic host cells and establish mutualistic or pathogenic interactions. An example is the Ysc-Yop T3SS of pathogenic Yersinia species. READ MORE
