Supersymmetry Breaking: Models of Gauge Mediation with Gauge Messengers
… 5 we deal with direct gauge mediation with gauge messengers. In this version of gauge mediation, the spontaneously broken gauge group is identified with the MSSM GUT gauge group and generically leads to tachyonic squark or slepton masses. In the particular case where the GUT gauge group is SU(5), …

Manipulation of second messengers by ectopic expression of receptors in transgenic Drosophila
… the selective manipulation of the second messengers cyclic GMP (cGMP), cyclic AMP (cAMP) and calcium (Ca2+) in the renal (Malpighian) tubule of the genetic model organism, Drosophila melanogaster. The importance of the second messengers cGMP, cAMP and Ca2+ in control of fluid transport …

Silent Messengers: Visualizing the Growth of Christianity in China by Chinese Christian Posters, 1927-1942
Christians in China experienced both the hopefulness and the hopelessness in 1930s China. The re-establishment of the Nanjing government in 1927 partially alleviated the fierce anti-Christian sentiments prevalent in China. Having recognized the daunting circumstance which Christianity in China was …

Reactive Oxygen Species are Second Messengers in the Lysophosphatidic Acid Induced Survival Signaling of Ovarian Cancer
… which led us to question if ROS served as second messengers in the aforementioned survival signaling pathways. We challenged SKOV3 cells with antioxidant treatments in the presence of LPA to examine their effects on cell proliferation and Akt, ERK, and NF-κB activation. Two antioxidants, …

Graduate Recital, Trumpet
… the trumpet lineage of Art Blakey and the Jazz Messengers. I owe a great deal to Blakey, as some of the trumpeters in this group are my biggest influences. Lee Morgan made such an impact on Bobby Timmons' "Moanin" that future Messengers horn players would quote the beginning and ending of Lee's …

A nucleic acid-based bacterial message export system for cell-to-cell communication
… between and among cells via small-molecule messengers being funneled from the sender to the receiver cell. Nucleic acids are rarely used as extracellular messengers due to their labile nature and proclivity for enzymatic digestion. Eliminating these obstacles will allow for a larger array of …

The development of motility in spermatozoa
… and caudal epididymal regions of the rat, second messengers are not effective in stimulating motility, but they are involved once such pH change has occurred. The spermatozoa of Fucus serratus differ from mammalian spermatozoa in that they are released into the sea prior to fertilisation and the …
