ARP, A Peptide Derived from the Stress-Associated Acetylcholinesterase Variant, Has Hematopoietic Growth Promoting Activities
1 Feb 2001
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Psychological stress induces rapid and long-lasting changes in blood cell composition, implying the existence of stress-induced factors that modulate hematopoiesis. Here we report the involvement of the stress-associated "readthrough" acetylcholinesterase (AChE-R) variant, and its 26 amino acid C-terminal domain (ARP) in hematopoietic stress responses. MATERIALS AND METHODS: We studied the effects of...
