Recent findings indicate a significant association between sedentary (SED)-time and type 2 diabetes mellitus(T2DM). The aim of this study was to investigate whether different levels of SED-time could impact on biochemical and physiological processes occurring in sedentary and physically inactive

One of the objectives of this study was to develop a method for the reversible arrest of HeLa cells in G2 phase by using p-fluorophenylalanine (FPA), an analog of phenylalanine. Addition of 0.5 mM of FPA to synchronized HeLa cells

The iron-containing enzyme tyrosine hydroxylase catalyzes the hydroxylation of tyrosine to dihydroxyphenylalanine. A series of 4-X-substituted (X = H, F, Br, Cl, CH3, or CH3O) phenylalanines have been characterized as substrates to gain insight into the mechanism of hydroxylation. Multiple
