Modulation of neural cell membrane conductance by the herbal anxiolytic and antiepileptic drug aswal [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
To evaluate the effects of aswal on ionic fluxes and neuronal excitation, we performed extracellular and whole cell patch clamp recordings on CA1 pyramidal neurons of guinea pigs and Long-Evans rats.

MEMBRANE POTENTIALS AND CATAPHORETIC POTENTIALS OF PROTEINS [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of General Physiology, 1923
1. It has been shown in preceding publications that the membrane potentials of protein solutions or gels are determined by differences in the concentration of a common ion (e.g. hydrogen ion) inside a protein solution or protein gel and an outside aqueous solution free from protein, and that the membrane potentials can be calculated with a good degree ...

Effective zero-thickness model for a conductive membrane driven by an electric field [PDF]

open access: yesPhys. Rev. E, 81, 031912 (2010), 2009
The behavior of a conductive membrane in a static (DC) electric field is investigated theoretically. An effective zero-thickness model is constructed based on a Robin-type boundary condition for the electric potential at the membrane, originally developed for electrochemical systems.

Temperature effects on neuronal membrane potentials and inward currents in rat hypothalamic tissue slices

open access: yesJournal of Physiology, 2005
Preoptic–anterior hypothalamic (PO/AH) neurones sense and regulate body temperature. Although controversial, it has been postulated that warm‐induced depolarization determines neuronal thermosensitivity. Supporting this hypothesis, recent studies suggest

Donnan potential and surface potential of a charged membrane

open access: yesBiophysical Journal, 1985
A model is presented for the electrical potential distribution across a charged biological membrane that is in equilibrium with an electrolyte solution. We assume that a membrane has charged surface layers of thickness d on both surfaces of the membrane, where the fixed charges are distributed at a uniform density N within the layers, and that these ...

Membrane Activity of Melittin and Magainin-I at Low Peptide-to-Lipid Ratio: Different Types of Pores and Translocation Mechanisms

open access: yesBiomolecules
Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) are believed to be a prominent alternative to the common antibiotics. However, despite decades of research, there are still no good clinical examples of peptide-based antimicrobial drugs for system application.

Involvement of MAPKs and PLC Pathways in Modulation of Pacemaking Activity by So-Cheong-Ryong-Tang in Interstitial Cells of Cajal from Murine Small Intestine

open access: yesThe Scientific World Journal, 2013
Purpose. Interstitial cells of Cajal (ICCs) are the pacemaker cells that generate slow waves in the gastrointestinal (GI) tract. We have aimed to investigate the effects of Socheongryong-Tang (SCRT) in ICCs from mouse’s small intestine. Methods.

DMInet: An Accurate and Highly Flexible Deep Learning Framework for Drug Membrane Interaction with Membrane Selectivity [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2021
Drug membrane interaction is a very significant bioprocess to consider in drug discovery. Here, we propose a novel deep learning framework coined DMInet to study drug-membrane interactions that leverages large-scale Martini coarse-grained molecular simulations of permeation of drug-like molecules across six different lipid membranes.

Descending Vasa Recta Endothelial Membrane Potential Response Requires Pericyte Communication. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2016
Using dual-cell electrophysiological recording, we examined the routes for equilibration of membrane potential between the pericytes and endothelia that comprise the descending vasa recta (DVR) wall.

Mechanisms of Aluminum Tolerance in Wheat : An Investigation of Genotypic Differences in Rhizosphere pH, K, and H Transport, and Root-Cell Membrane Potentials.

open access: yesPlant Physiology, 1989
Control of rhizosphere pH and exclusion of Al by the plasma membrane have been hypothesized as possible mechanisms for Al tolerance. To test primarily the rhizosphere pH hypothesis, wheat cultivars (Triticum aestivum L.
