TRANSCELLULAR METABOLISM OF LEUKOTRIENE A4 BY RABBIT BLOOD CELLS: LACK OF RELEVANT LTC4-SYNTHASE ACTIVITY IN RABBIT PLATELETS

Transcellular metabolism of leukotriene A4 by rabbit blood cells: lack of relevant LTC4-synthase activity in rabbit platelets

The objective of this study was to determine the transcellular metabolism of leukotriene A4 by rabbit blood cells.mixed peripheral blood leukocyte preparations with and without platelets in a ratio of 1:40 were challenged with the Ca(2+)-ionophore A23187.5-Lipoxygenase metabolites production was assessed by RP-HPLC coupled with diode-array UV detec

Conditioning or cognition? Understanding interspecific communication as a way of improving animal training (a case study with elephants in Nepal)

When animals are trained to function in a human society (for example, pet dogs, police dogs, or sports horses), different trainers and training cultures vary widely in their ability to understand how the animal perceives the communication efforts of the trainer.This variation has considerable impact on the resulting performance and welfare of the a
