Maturation of Circulatory Responses to Methionine-Enkephalin [PDF]

Pediatric Research, 1983
The cardiovascular and respiratory effects of the naturally occurring endogenous opiate, methionine-enkephalin, were studied in 23 fetal sheep, five newborn lambs, 15 pregnant sheep, and four nonpregnant ewes. The opiate peptide produced dose-dependent decreases in heart rate and blood pressure in fetal and neonatal lambs but increased heart rate and ...

Nitrous Oxide: Mechanism of Its Antinociceptive Action [PDF]

, 1995
Nitrous oxide (N2O) is an anesthetic gas known to produce an analgesic effect at sub-anesthetic concentrations. This analgesic property of N2O can be clinically exploited in a broad range of conditions where pain relief is indicated.

A Hanks‐type bacterial kinase, PknS, directly phosphorylates the alternative sigma factor EcfK to promote resistance to protist predation

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
The Xanthomonas citri Hanks‐type kinase PknS autophosphorylates and directly phosphorylates the alternative sigma factor EcfK at five residues. Besides the conserved residue T51 in the σ2 domain, phosphorylation of a residue in the linker between σ2 and σ4 is critical for EcfK activation by promoting its interaction with a positively charged pocket in ...

Neuronal pathways in tendon healing and tendinopathy : update [PDF]

, 2016
The regulatory mechanisms involved in tendon homeostasis and repair are not fully understood. Accumulating data, however, demonstrate that the nervous system, in addition to afferent (sensory) functions, through efferent neuronal pathways plays an active

Mass Spectrometry Imaging Combined With Single‐Cell Transcriptional Profiling Reveals the Multidimensional Spatial Distributions and Biosynthetic Pathways of Medicinal Components in Andrographis paniculata

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The synthesis and accumulation of active ingredients in medicinal plants are distributed in specific organs, tissues, and cell types, which are important for the exploitation of medicinal plants. However, the fine distribution of active ingredients is difficult to know. Here, the system of mass spectrometry imaging (MSI) integrated with single‐

Sensory Neuropeptides and Endogenous Opioids Expression in Human Dental Pulp with Asymptomatic Inflammation: In Vivo Study

Mediators of Inflammation, 2015
Purpose. This study quantified the expression of substance P (SP), calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP), β-endorphins (β-End), and methionine-enkephalin (Met-Enk) in human dental pulp following orthodontic intrusion. Methods.

Met-enkephalin-induced mobilization of intracellular Ca2+ in rat intracardiac ganglion neurones [PDF]

, 1999
The effects of Met-enkephalin on Ca2+-dependent K+ channel activity were investigated using the cell-attached patch recording technique on isolated parasympathetic neurones of rat intracardiac ganglia. Large-conductance, Ca2+-dependent K+ channels (BKCa)

Recent Advancements in the Characterization of D‐Amino Acid and Isoaspartate Post‐Translational Modifications

Mass Spectrometry Reviews, Volume 45, Issue 2, Page 218-230, March/April 2026.
ABSTRACT One of the great triumphs of mass spectrometry‐based peptide and protein characterization is the characterization of their modifications as most modifications have a characteristic mass shift. What happens when the modification does not change the mass of the peptide?

Molecular and Endocrine Regulation of Ovarian Maturation in the Black Tiger Prawn (Penaeus monodon) and Associated Challenges in Its Aquaculture

Reviews in Aquaculture, Volume 18, Issue 2, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Over the past four decades, substantial research has investigated the regulation of ovarian maturation and spawning in the black tiger prawn (Penaeus monodon). In this species, female reproduction is strongly suppressed by gonad‐inhibiting hormone (GIH) released from the eyestalk, making eyestalk ablation (ESA) the most widely adopted spawning‐

Interaction and Localization of One-electron Orbitals in an Organic Molecule: Fictitious Parameter Analysis for Multi-physics Simulations

, 2006
We present a new methodology to analyze complicated multi-physics simulations by introducing a fictitious parameter. Using the method, we study quantum mechanical aspects of an organic molecule in water.
