Imposed expiratory resistance, dynamic hyperinflation and locomotor power and fatigue
Abstract Expiratory flow limitation results in dynamic hyperinflation, dyspnoea and premature exercise intolerance. We aimed to measure whether expiratory resistance reduces locomotor power via limiting maximal voluntary motor activity, exacerbating muscle fatigue, or both.

Schizophrenia is a TH2 dominant autoimmune disease possibly against acetylcholine receptors of CNS [PDF]
Schizophrenia is a very common psychiatric disorder. However, its etiology and pathogenesis is still unknown. Current theory saying that neurotransmitter imbalance such as serotonin or dopamine only provides limited effectiveness in schizophrenia ...

Ouabain‐induced hypertension in rats: Mechanisms, variability and translational implications
Abstract Ouabain‐induced hypertension is a multifactorial and condition‐dependent phenomenon involving coordinated actions across vascular, renal and central nervous system pathways. At the vascular level, ouabain inhibits Na⁺/K⁺‐ATPase, particularly the α2‐isoform, leading to elevated intracellular Ca2⁺, enhanced vasoconstriction and structural ...

Glial cells in the heart: Implications for their roles in health and disease
Abstract figure legend Schematic representation of cardiac autonomic ganglia within epicardial fat pads (posterior heart surface shown), containing vagal postganglionic neuron cell bodies, associated fibres, and glia. These ganglia receive cholinergic input from vagal preganglionic neurons and adrenergic input from sympathetic postganglionic neurons ...

Our objective was to investigate in conscious Sprague-Dawley (6-8 weeks, 250-300 g) female rats (N = 7 in each group) the effects of intracerebroventricularly (icv) injected adrenomedullin (ADM) on blood pressure and heart rate (HR), and to determine if ...

Quantitative surface field analysis: learning causal models to predict ligand binding affinity and pose. [PDF]
We introduce the QuanSA method for inducing physically meaningful field-based models of ligand binding pockets based on structure-activity data alone. The method is closely related to the QMOD approach, substituting a learned scoring field for a pocket ...
