Facts (generated by robot; please edit if you find it inaccurate)

  • The absence of cytopathic or cytochemical evidence of impairment in nucleic acid metabolism is inconsistent with the premise that soman exerts direct cytotoxic effects on rabbit myocardium.
  • Nucleic acid metabolism is structurally organized in the nucleus.
  • A probable disturbance in nucleic acid metabolism is indicated by the frequency of cells showing a correlation between lightly-stained nuclei and a large volume of cytoplasmic bodies.
  • The correlation between PyNPase activities in angiogenesis and nucleic acid metabolism is unclear.
  • Alteration of Cell Cycle Regulation and Nucleic Acid Metabolism Is the Dominant Theme of the Late Repressed Cluster.
