Characterization of Adenylyl Cyclase Isoform 6 Residues Interacting with Forskolin

Biology, 2023
Background: The adenylyl cyclase (AC) pathway, crucial for pulmonary vasodilation, is inhibited by hypoxia. Forskolin (FSK) binds allosterically to AC, stimulating ATP catalysis.

Magnitude and Mechanism of Phrenic Long-term Facilitation Shift Between Daily Rest Versus Active Phase

Function, 2023
Plasticity is a fundamental property of the neural system controlling breathing. One key example of respiratory motor plasticity is phrenic long-term facilitation (pLTF), a persistent increase in phrenic nerve activity elicited by acute intermittent ...

Oxygen therapy in infants with extreme periodic breathing

, 2023
Periodic breathing (PB) is a respiratory pattern in infants defined as 3 episodes of apneas lasting longer than 3 seconds, separeted by continued respiration of 20 seconds or less. PB is generally thought to be benign, but sometimes PB is extreme (PB >

Can we still do something-and what? - for a seemingly missing syndrome?: “Yes we can”

Italian Journal of Pediatrics, 2019
In this letter, the authors compare the incidence of SUDI and SIDS in the Tuscany Region to the incidence reported by Campi and Bonati in their paper “Can we still do something-and what?- for a seemingly missing syndrome?” that was recently published in ...

Opioid suppression of an excitatory pontomedullary respiratory circuit by convergent mechanisms

eLife, 2023
Opioids depress breathing by inhibition of interconnected respiratory nuclei in the pons and medulla. Mu opioid receptor (MOR) agonists directly hyperpolarize a population of neurons in the dorsolateral pons, particularly the Kölliker-Fuse (KF) nucleus ...

Nonlinear dynamics of a rotating shaft with a breathing crack [PDF]

, 2011
In this paper, the effects of a breathing crack on the vibratory characteris- tics of a rotating shaft are investigated. A new, simple and robust model composed of two rigid bars connected with a nonlinear flexural spring is proposed.

MicroRNA-200b regulates distal airway development by maintaining epithelial integrity

Scientific Reports, 2017
miR-200b plays a role in epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) in cancer. We recently reported abnormal expression of miR-200b in the context of human pulmonary hypoplasia in congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH).
