Efficacy of a K+ Channel Agonist, XEN1101, For Preserving Contractility in Mouse Models of Hypokalemic Periodic Paralysis

Muscle &Nerve, EarlyView.
Pretreatment with an agonist of Kv7 potassium channels (XEN1101) protects the soleus muscle from a loss of force during a 2 mM K+ challenge, in a mouse model of hypokalemic periodic paralysis. ABSTRACT Introduction/Aims Effective management remains lacking for recurrent episodes of acute weakness in hypokalemic periodic paralysis (HypoPP).

Friction Shock Absorbers and Reverse Thrust for Fast Multirotor Landing on High‐Speed Vehicles

Journal of Field Robotics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Typical landing gears of small uninhabited aerial vehicles (UAV) limit their capability to land on vehicles moving at more than 20–50 km/h due to high drag forces, high pitch angles and potentially high relative horizontal velocities. To enable landing at higher speeds, a combination of lightweight friction shock absorbers and reverse thrust ...

Dismantling the genus Tarenna (Rubiaceae: Pavetteae) in Africa and Madagascar, with the description of three new genera

TAXON, EarlyView.
Abstract As presently circumscribed, the Paleotropical genus Tarenna, belonging to the tribe Pavetteae (Rubiaceae), comprises about 200 species and has its centres of diversity in tropical Asia and Africa. Previous molecular phylogenetic studies of the tribe revealed the polyphyly of Tarenna, suggesting that the genus needs to be recircumscribed ...

Mono(2‐Ethylhexyl) Phthalate Induces Inflammatory and Angiogenic Alterations Mediated by the PI3K/AKT Pathway in HTR‐8/SVneo Trophoblastic Cells

Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Exposure to mono(2‐ethylhexyl) phthalate (MEHP) during pregnancy has been associated with adverse pregnancy and birth outcomes characterized by extravillous trophoblast (EVT) abnormal function. Previous reports have suggested that MEHP can activate the PI3K/AKT pathway in EVT cells, a pathway known to regulate inflammation and angiogenesis in ...
