Effect of different agonistic experiences on behavioural seizures in fully amygdala kindled rats [PDF]
Fully amygdala kindled rats were exposed to two different inter-male agonistic experiences in order to study the interaction between epilepsy and acute social stress.

Protective effects of Met-enkephalin on alcohol induced gastric lesions [PDF]
The model of ethanol induced gastric lesions is useful in the evaluation of gastric cytoprotection. We used it to measure cytoprotective effects of two neuropeptides, Met-enkephalin (Peptid-M, LUPEX(R)) and alpha -melanocyte stimulating hormone (alpha ...

Thermodynamics and Kinetics of Folding of a Small Peptide
We study the thermodynamics and kinetics of folding for a small peptide. Our data rely on Monte Carlo simulations where the interactions among all atoms are taken into account.

Biased Metropolis Sampling for Rugged Free Energy Landscapes [PDF]
Metropolis simulations of all-atom models of peptides (i.e. small proteins) are considered. Inspired by the funnel picture of Bryngelson and Wolyness, a transformation of the updating probabilities of the dihedral angles is defined, which uses ...

Sentience in cephalopod molluscs: an updated assessment
ABSTRACT This article evaluates the evidence for sentience – the capacity to have feelings – in cephalopod molluscs: octopus, cuttlefish, squid, and nautilus. Our framework includes eight criteria, covering both whether the animal's nervous system could support sentience and whether their behaviour indicates sentience.

Structure of the Energy Landscape of Short Peptides
We have simulated, as a showcase, the pentapeptide Met-enkephalin (Tyr-Gly-Gly-Phe-Met) to visualize the energy landscape and investigate the conformational coverage by the multicanonical method.

Just as fingerprints reveal identity, spectroscopic fingerprints reveal molecular secrets. In this article, we show parts of the unique fingerprint of the sulfur–aromatic interaction. By measuring how this force alters the electronic structure of gas‐phase peptides, we provide a fundamental understanding of interactions that give insights into the ...
