High impact information on sal

The Spalt (sal) gene family plays an important role in regulating developmental processes of many organisms [1].
After administration of 19 sil, paf-acether synthesis was 55.5 and 33.5% higher upon stimulation with 50 and 200 micrograms Z/ml, respectively, than in the 19 sal group [2].
In a third blind experiment, macrophages from mice that received 19 sil formed 61.3 and 28.6% more paf-acether upon stimulation with 50 and 200 micrograms Z/ml respectively, as compared to mice receiving 19 sal or lactose submitted to the same dilution procedure (19 lac) [2].
To compare the viability of adipocytes harvested by liposuction (sal) or by excision (exc), fat harvested by both techniques from seven lipectomy patients was analyzed by glycerol-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (G3PDH) enzyme assay [3].
Both the standard type, E, and sal are tyrosinase positive whereas the two C mutants are tyrosinase negative [4].

Other interactions of sal

Expression of three spalt (sal) gene homologues in zebrafish embryos [5].
