DUAL SPECIFICITY PHOSPHATASE 6 DEFICIENCY IS ASSOCIATED WITH IMPAIRED SYSTEMIC GLUCOSE TOLERANCE AND REVERSIBLE WEIGHT RETARDATION IN MICE.

Dual specificity phosphatase 6 deficiency is associated with impaired systemic glucose tolerance and reversible weight retardation in mice.

Here, we aimed to investigate the potential role of DUSP6, a dual specificity phosphatase, that specifically inactivates extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK), for the regulation of body weight and glucose homeostasis.We further assessed whether metabolic challenges affect Dusp6 expression in selected brain areas or white adipose tissue.Hypot

Richmond Architectural Surveys: Choices in Digitization

In 2008, Virginia Commonwealth University (VCU) Libraries received US License Plate Hat a donation from the City of Richmond, Virginia, that was a perfect candidate for digitization: the Richmond Architectural Survey (RAS) Collection ( http://go.vcu.edu/ras ).The collection consists of over 600 survey forms, photographs, and other data sheets docum
