Effect of histamine on the electric activities of cerebellar Purkinje cell [PDF]
The effect of histamine (HA) on the electric activities of Purkinje cell (PC) is studied on the cerebellum slice. We find that: (1) HA's main effect on PC is excitative (72.9%); there are also a small amount of PC showing inhibitive (10.2%) or no (16.9%) response to HA.

Detection in Molecular Communications with Ligand Receptors under Molecular Interference [PDF]
Molecular Communications (MC) is a bio-inspired communication technique that uses molecules to transfer information among bio-nano devices. In this paper, we focus on the detection problem for biological MC receivers employing ligand receptors to infer the transmitted messages encoded into the concentration of molecules, i.e., ligands.

Central mechanisms mediating the hypophagic effects of oleoylethanolamide and N-acylphosphatidylethanolamines: different lipid signals? [PDF]
The spread of "obesity epidemic" and the poor efficacy of many anti-obesity therapies in the long-term highlight the need to develop novel efficacious therapy. This necessity stimulates a large research effort to find novel mechanisms controlling feeding

ABSTRACT A halogenated symmetrical formamidine, N,N′‐bis(3‐chloro‐4‐fluorophenyl)formamidine (FCF) was synthesized by the condensation reaction between triethyl orthoformate and 3‐chloro‐4‐fluoroaniline in 1:2 ratio. The compound FCF was characterized by FT‐IR, mass, NMR (1H and 13C) spectroscopic techniques and the purity was confirmed by elemental ...

Histamine elicits glutamate release from cultured astrocytes
Astrocytes play key roles in regulating brain homeostasis and neuronal activity. This is, in part, accomplished by the ability of neurotransmitters in the synaptic cleft to bind astrocyte membrane receptors, activating signalling cascades that regulate ...

Prospects of using Antagonist Histamine H2-Receptor (Cimetidinum) as Adjuvant for Melanoma Biotherapy Treatment [PDF]
Improvement of anti-tumor biotherapy effectiveness by modification of immune response with histamine H2 receptor Cimetidinum (CM) was studied using the experimental murine model of B16 F10 melanoma in vivo. It is shown that skin melanoma biotherapy by antitumor whole-cell GM-CSF-producing vaccine with the addition of CM (in dose of 25 mg/kg, daily for ...

Intestinal epithelial responses to Salmonella enterica serovar Enteritidis: Effects on intestinal permeability and ion transport [PDF]
Salmonella infection of chickens that leads to potential human foodborne salmonellosis continues to be a major concern. Chickens serve as carriers but, in contrast to humans, rarely show any clinical signs including diarrhea.

Synthesis and Biological Evaluation of Bicyclic Pyrazolines with Promising Antimicrobial Activities
Continuous flow technology is exploited for the generation of bicyclic pyrazolines via photo‐click reactions. These heterocyclic species contain a valuable 3D scaffold along with a polar succinimide moiety. Subsequent antimicrobial testing reveals that halogenated moieties such as chlorine atoms and trifluoromethoxy groups enhance the potency of these ...

Should the non‐canonical pathway of nitric oxide generation be targeted in hypertensive pregnancies?
Abstract Hypertension in pregnancy is prevalent, affecting around 10% of pregnancies worldwide, and significantly increases the risk of adverse outcomes for both mothers and their babies. Current treatment strategies for pregnant women with hypertension are limited, and new approaches for the management of hypertension in pregnancy are urgently needed.
