The membrane potential of Giardia intestinalis [PDF]
Giardia intestinalis is a primitive microaerophilic protozoan parasite which colonises the upper intestine of humans. Despite the evolutionary and medical significance of this organism, its physiology is very poorly understood. In this study we have used a novel flow cytometric technique to make quantitative measurements of the electrical potential ...

Geometry based dynamic modeling of the neuron-electrode interface [PDF]
A dynamic model of the neuron-electrode interface is presented which is based on the interface geometry and the electrical properties of the neuronal membrane. The model is used to compute the potential at the electrode and the local membrane potentials.

Pancreatic cancer (PC) frequency and incidence have grown rapidly in recent years. One of the most serious problems with PC is the existence of asymptotic manifestations, which frequently delays early detection, and until the diagnosis is established ...

Lipophilic Cations Rescue the Growth of Yeast under the Conditions of Glycolysis Overflow
Chemicals inducing a mild decrease in the ATP/ADP ratio are considered as caloric restriction mimetics as well as treatments against obesity. Screening for such chemicals in animal model systems requires a lot of time and labor. Here, we present a system

Macroscopic control of cell electrophysiology through ion channel expression
Cells convert electrical signals into chemical outputs to facilitate the active transport of information across larger distances. This electrical-to-chemical conversion requires a tightly regulated expression of ion channels.

Modulation of the ISFET response by an immunological reaction [PDF]
A new method is presented for the detection of an immunological reaction in a membrane. Antigens (or antibodies) are taken up in a porous membrane, which covers the gate area of an ISFET. By stepwise changing of the electrolyte concentration, a transient

The medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC) receives dense noradrenergic projections from the locus coeruleus. Adrenergic innervation of mPFC pyramidal neurons plays an essential role in both physiology (control of memory formation, attention, working memory ...
