349 results about "Neurophysins" patented technology

Neurophysins are carrier proteins which transport the hormones oxytocin and vasopressin to the posterior pituitary from the paraventricular and supraoptic nucleus of the hypothalamus, respectively. Neurophysins are also secreted out of the posterior pituitary hypothalamus, each carrying their respective associated passenger hormone. When the posterior pituitary hypothalamus secretes vasopressin and its neurophysin carrier, it also secretes a glycopeptide.

Method for evaluating risk of Parkinson's disease induced by environmental pollutants

The invention relates to the technical field of environmental health risk evaluation, in particular to a method for evaluating the risk of Parkinson's disease induced by environmental pollutants. The method for evaluating the risk of inducing the Parkinson's disease by the environmental pollutants comprises the following steps: carrying out a subacute exposure experiment by taking caenorhabditis elegans as a model organism; observing the transport capacity of the caenorhabditis elegans, observing and counting the abnormal movement ability of the caenorhabditis elegans, and determining the lipofuscin level of the caenorhabditis elegans, the damage degree of dopaminergic neurons, the dopamine level and the expression and aggregation conditions of alpha-synuclein protein, so as to evaluate the risk of the Parkinson's disease induced by environmental pollutants; the environmental pollutant is 6: 2 chlorinated polyfluoroalkyl ether sulfonate. According to the method, the PD toxicity evaluation model is generated by constructing a behavior characteristic and molecular characteristic scheme and combining multi-strain nematode data, and the problem that in the prior art, the risk of inducing PD by environmental pollutants is difficult to comprehensively reveal due to the fact that a single dimension is concerned is solved.
