Dreaming of Better Treatments: Advances in Drug Development for Sleep Medicine and Chronotherapy
ABSTRACT Throughout history, the development of new sleep medicines has been driven by progress in our understanding of the mechanisms underlying sleep. Ancient civilisations used their understanding of the sedative nature of natural herbs and compounds to induce sleep.

Molecular Mechanisms of Peritoneal Dialysis–Induced Microvascular Vasodilation [PDF]
Peritoneal dialysis (PD) solutions dilate microvessels by undefined mechanisms. This vasodilation directly affects ultrafiltration and solute exchange during a PD dwell and is thought to account for the variable mass transfer area coefficient for ...

White light signals lasting less than 30 s induced rapid drop (1 s) of some Mimosa pudica leaves, resulting from osmocontraction of the pulvinar motor cells (A). An early signal detected after about 5 s is a change in motor cell membrane potential, depending on the wavelength applied (B).

The role of the large conductance Ca2+-activated K+ channel in adenosine receptor-mediated cytoprotection [PDF]
The rat embryonic cardiomyoblast-derived H9c2 cell line is increasingly used for studies into cardioprotection, as these cells display similar properties to primary cardiomyocytes.

Overexpression of jojoba wax ester synthase in poplar causes accumulation of intracellular lipids in leaves and reduced stomatal conductance with higher water‐use efficiencies in the transgenic lines. Abstract Poplars are important fast‐growing, water‐spending biomass tree crops.

Abstract Background and Objectives Transfusion‐associated circulatory overload (TACO) is a common and life‐threatening transfusion complication. Because of uncertainty regarding dosing, pre‐transfusion furosemide prophylaxis is not widely endorsed. The aim of this study was to generate a furosemide dose–response curve in TACO‐susceptible patients using
