We investigated 85 patients on the relationship between the axon reflex sweat volume or the reaction time and Raynaud's phenomenon, skin symptoms and patient background. Most patients did not show a decrease in sweating, but one in three patients showed less sweating in summer than in winter.

Functional activity of peptide ion channels in tethered bilayer lipid membranes: Review
Abstract Ion transport across biomembranes plays a major role in living cells. This fundamental function is normally carried out by molecules with both a hydrophobic and a hydrophilic side (amphiphilic molecules), which aggregate within the membrane forming a hydrophilic pore (the ion channel) permitting the selective translocation of permeant ions ...

Abstract Intervertebral disc degeneration is a common cause of low back pain, the leading cause of disability worldwide. Appropriate preclinical models for intervertebral disc research are essential to achieving a better understanding of underlying pathophysiology and for the development, evaluation, and translation of more effective treatments.

rAAV expressing recombinant neutralizing antibody for the botulinum neurotoxin type A prophylaxis
Botulinum neurotoxin (BoNT) is one of the most dangerous bacterial toxins and a potential biological weapon component. BoNT mechanism of pathological action is based on inhibiting the release of neurotransmitters from nerve endings.

Botulinum Neurotoxin Serotypes Detected by Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy
Botulinum neurotoxin is one of the deadliest biological toxins known to mankind and is able to cause the debilitating disease botulism. The rapid detection of the different serotypes of botulinum neurotoxin is essential for both diagnosis of botulism and

The binding of botulinum neurotoxins to different peripheral neurons [PDF]
Botulinum neurotoxins are the most potent toxins known. The double receptor binding modality represents one of the most significant properties of botulinum neurotoxins and largely accounts for their incredible potency and lethality.
