Differential Effects of Vagal Activation on the Sinus and Atrioventricular Nodes
JACC: Case Reports, 2020 Vagal activation usually affects both sinus and atrioventricular (AV) nodes, manifesting as sinus slowing accompanied by varying degrees of AV block. AV block accompanying sinus acceleration as during treadmill testing is usually considered pathologic ...

Glimepiride, a novel sulfonylurea, does not abolish myocardial protection afforded by either ischemic preconditioning or diazoxide [PDF]
, 2001 Background: The sulfonylurea glibenclamide (Glib) abolishes the cardioprotective effect of ischemic preconditioning (IP), presumably by inhibiting mitochondrial KATP channel opening in myocytes. Glimepiride (Glim) is a new sulfonylurea reported to affect

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.Under environmental changes, the expression level of neuropeptide (NP) and neuropeptide receptor (NPR) genes changes to confer context‐dependent adaptation to the model organism Drosophila melanogaster. Through finding more regulatory elements in the NPR genes in comparison with their ligands (NPs), we found that NPR‐biased transcriptional regulation ...
