Holdase activity of secreted Hsp70 masks amyloid-β42 neurotoxicity in Drosophila.

abstract：:Proopiomelanocortin (POMC), a major pituitary product, is also present in the adult mouse testis. We have shown previously that POMC mRNAs are most abundant in a subpopulation of Leydig cells associated with tubules in specific stages of the cycle of the seminiferous epithelium. In the present study, we examined the e...
