Cells and ionic conductances contributing to spontaneous activity in bladder and urethral smooth muscle

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Cells and conductances contributing to spontaneous activity in the lower urinary tract. Bladder and urethra exhibit spontaneous contractions at both cellular and tissue levels. Both detrusor and urethral smooth muscle cells display activity that is regular and rhythmic.

A role for TASK-1 (KCNK3) channels in the chemosensory control of breathing [PDF]

, 2008
Acid-sensitive K+ channels of the tandem P-domain K+-channel family (TASK-1 and TASK-3) have been implicated in peripheral and central respiratory chemosensitivity; however, because of the lack of decisive pharmacological agents, the final proof of the ...

Quantitative Analysis of the Aminosteroidal Non-Depolarizing Neuromuscular Blocking Agent Vecuronium by LC-ESI-MS: A Postmortem Investigation* [PDF]

Journal of Analytical Toxicology, 2008
The apparent recreational use of an aminosteroidal non-depolarizing neuromuscular blocking agent, vecuronium, is reported in this postmortem investigation. A quantitative method for the analysis of vecuronium and its active metabolite, 3-desacetylvecuronium, in blood and tissue samples was developed using liquid chromatography-electrospray ionization ...

Human‐derived cardiac‐neural microtissues reveal catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia is also a disease of the sympathetic neuron

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Schematic diagram illustrating the proposed pathway in which regulatory defects might occur in sympathetic neurons derived from hiPSC in catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia (CPVT). Specifically, enhanced calcium transients appeared to derive from three sources: enhanced membrane excitability (due to loss of ...

Multiple model adaptive control of neuromuscular blockade: Design guidelines and clinical cases [PDF]

, 2007
The high level of uncertainty of the dynamic response of patients subject to anaesthesia motivates the use of adaptive control methods. This paper proposes an approach based on Switched Multiple Model Adaptive Control (SMMAC) to tackle this problem in ...

GABA\u3csub\u3eA\u3c/sub\u3e and excitatory amino acid receptors in dorsomedial hypothalamus and heart rate in rats [PDF]

, 1991
We have previously shown that microinjection of drugs that interfere with the function of the inhibitory neurotransmitter gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) into the hypothalamus produces cardiorespiratory and behavioral changes resembling those seen in ...

Navigating the Ethereal Tightrope: The Nanogenerator Manipulates Neurons for Immune Equilibrium

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 14, 9 March 2026.
This review explores how nanogenerators modulate neuroimmune responses, offering innovative strategies for treating neurological disorders. By interfacing with neural pathways, they enable precise control of immune activity, especially via vagus nerve stimulation.

A Drosophila Mutant with a Temperature-Sensitive Block in Nerve Conduction [PDF]

, 1978
A mutant, napts (no action potential, temperature-sensitive), is described in which axonal conduction fails at high temperature. Synaptic transmission at the larval neuromuscular junction is unimpaired.
