Expression Profiles of Neuropeptides, Neurotransmitters, and Their Receptors in Human Keratocytes In Vitro and In Situ. [PDF]
Keratocytes, the quiescent cells of the corneal stroma, play a crucial role in corneal wound healing. Neuropeptides and neurotransmitters are usually associated with neuronal signaling, but have recently been shown to be produced also by non-neuronal ...

Virtual Affinity Fingerprints for Target Fishing: A New Application of Drug Profile Matching [PDF]
We recently introduced Drug Profile Matching (DPM), a novel virtual affinity fingerprinting bioactivity prediction method. DPM is based on the docking profiles of ca.

Abstract Many Arctic fishes experience prolonged periods of extreme cold and large thermal variation over both rapid and seasonal time scales which challenge critical physiological functions. In the central Canadian Arctic, we caught wild adult lake trout (Salvelinus namaycush) acclimatized to winter and summer temperatures to determine the extent to ...

Ipratropium Bromide-Mediated Myocardial Injury in In Vitro Models of Myocardial Ischaemia/Reperfusion [PDF]
Ipratropium bromide, a nonselective muscarinic antagonist, is widely prescribed for the treatment of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Analyses of COPD patients, with underlying ischaemic heart disease, receiving anticholinergics, have ...

Krisanaklan reduces CFTR‐dependent intestinal chloride and fluid secretion by inhibiting the Na+,K+‐ATPase and K+ channels in epithelial cells. Consequently, this natural, plant‐derived product may limit secretory diarrhea caused by a diverse array of microbial pathogens. However, by dissipating the transmembrane Na+ gradient, Krisanaklan also inhibits

Intestinal epithelial stem/progenitor cells are controlled by mucosal afferent nerves. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: The maintenance of the intestinal epithelium is of great importance for the survival of the organism. A possible nervous control of epithelial cell renewal was studied in rats and mice.

ABSTRACT Intestinal health could be affected by intestinal motility, which is controlled by the enteric nervous system. In this study, we found that α‐ketoglutarate (AKG) inhibits intestinal motility and improves intestinal permeability, accompanied by an increased count of intestinal flora.
