Nitrous Oxide: Mechanism of Its Antinociceptive Action [PDF]
Nitrous oxide (N2O) is an anesthetic gas known to produce an analgesic effect at sub-anesthetic concentrations. This analgesic property of N2O can be clinically exploited in a broad range of conditions where pain relief is indicated.

Orphan crops of archaeology‐based crop history research
Agrobiodiversity is central to sustainable farming worldwide. Cultivation, conservation and reintroduction of diverse plant species, including ‘forgotten’ and ‘underutilized’ crops, contribute to global agrobiodiversity, living ecosystems and sustainable food production.

Effects of selective opiate antagonists on morphine-induced hyperalgesia in domestic fowl [PDF]
Morphine typically produces analgesia in a variety of species by acting as an agonist at mu and perhaps delta opioid receptors. Recent research, however, has identified a biological model in which morphine produces a naloxone-reversible, paradoxical ...

ABSTRACT Operationalizing the indivisibility and integrated nature of the UN 2030 Agenda poses a complex governance challenge. Although research has advanced our understanding of SDG localization and interlinkages, important gaps remain. In this paper, we depart from these two strands of literature by asking how synergies and trade‐offs manifest in ...

Coordination on Time-Varying Antagonistic Networks [PDF]
This paper studies coordination problem for time-varying networks suffering from antagonistic information, quantified by scaling parameters. By such a manner, interacting property of the participating individuals and antagonistic information can be quantified in a fully decoupled perspective, thus benefiting from merely directed spanning tree ...

Application and Assessment of Deep Learning for the Generation of Potential NMDA Receptor Antagonists [PDF]
Uncompetitive antagonists of the N-methyl D-aspartate receptor (NMDAR) have demonstrated therapeutic benefit in the treatment of neurological diseases such as Parkinson's and Alzheimer's, but some also cause dissociative effects that have led to the synthesis of illicit drugs.

Identification of a Novel “Almost Neutral” Mu Opioid Receptor Antagonist in CHO Cells Expressing the Cloned Human Mu Opioid Receptor [PDF]
The basal (constitutive) activity of G protein-coupled receptors allows for the measurement of inverse agonist activity. Some competitive antagonists turn into inverse agonists under conditions where receptors are constitutively active.

Abstract Research Summary Framing is critical for leaders who must build support for strategic renewal. While research has concentrated on renewal that replaces one set of capabilities with another, we explore a distinctive challenge: how leaders persuade stakeholders to endorse the reprioritization of resources toward a capability set that must ...

Inferring Synergistic and Antagonistic Interactions in Mixtures of Exposures [PDF]
There is abundant interest in assessing the joint effects of multiple exposures on human health. This is often referred to as the mixtures problem in environmental epidemiology and toxicology. Classically, studies have examined the adverse health effects of different chemicals one at a time, but there is concern that certain chemicals may act together ...
