No full textBusiness cycle research in marketing: a review and research agenda
No full textBusiness cycles (BCs) may affect entire markets, and significantly alter many firms’ marketing activities and performance. Even though managers cannot prevent BCs from occurring, marketing research over the last 15 years has provided growing evidence that their impact on consumers, and hence on firm and brand performance, depends to a large extent on how firms adjust their marketing mix in response to these macro-economic swings. In this study, we review the growing marketing literature on how to attenuate or amplify the impact of BC fluctuations. Our discussion focuses on three key aspects: (1) the scope of, and insights from, existing BC research in marketing, (2) advancements in the methods to study various BC phenomena in marketing, and (3) some emerging trends that offer new challenges and opportunities for future BC research in marketing
Assays for Insulin and Insulin-Like Signal Transduction Based on Adipocytes, Hepatocytes, and Myocytes
No full textAfter having established insulin-like activity of compounds/drug candidates in primary or cultured adipose, muscle, and liver cells or tissues with one or several of the metabolic assays described above (see K.6.1 and K.6.2), it is often useful to elucidate the molecular mode of action of these compounds/drug candidates for further characterization and optimization, in particular regarding selectivity and potency. For this, detailed knowledge in the molecular mechanisms of the insulin signal transduction cascade as well as of cross-talking insulin-like signaling pathways as well as the availability of appropriate reliable and robust cell-free and cell-based assays reflecting these events is required. The following view results from the current experimental findings but, due to limitations in space and rapid progress still made in this area, has to be considered as simplified and temporary, only
