The Presence of Leukocytes in Ex Vivo Assays Significantly Increases the 50-Percent Inhibitory Concentrations of Artesunate and Chloroquine against Plasmodium vivax and Plasmodium falciparum [PDF]
ABSTRACT Plasmodium species ex vivo sensitivity assay protocols differ in the requirement for leukocyte removal before culturing. This study shows that the presence of leukocytes significantly increases the 50% inhibitory concentration (IC 50 ) of P. vivax

Identification of atropine-and P2X1 receptor antagonist-reistant, neurogenic contractions of the urinary bladder [PDF]
Acetylcholine and ATP are excitatory cotransmitters in parasympathetic nerves. We used P2X1 receptor antagonists to further characterize the purinergic component of neurotransmission in isolated detrusor muscle of guinea pig urinary bladder.
