The light chain of tetanus toxin inhibits calcium-dependent vasopressin release from permeabilized nerve endings [PDF]
The effects of tetanus toxin and its light and heavy chain subunits on vasopressin release were investigated in digitonin-permeabilized neurosecretory nerve terminals isolated from the neural lobe of the rat pituitary gland.

Calcium/sodium exchange in purified secretory vesicles from bovine neurohypophyses [PDF]
Purified secretory vesicles isolated from bovine neurohypophyses take up Na+ under the same circumstances where an efflux of Ca2+ takes place, suggesting a Na+/Ca2+ exchange. Potassium cannot substitute for Na+ in this process. Also, a Ca2+/Ca2+ exchange

Molecular Weight Distribution of Proteins Synthesized in Single, Identified Neurons of Aplysia [PDF]
Parietovisceral ganglia from Aplysia californica were incubated in medium containing leucine-3H. Single, identified nerve cell somas were isolated from the ganglia, and their proteins extracted and separated by electrophoresis on 5% SDS-polyacrylamide ...

Identification of a synaptic vesicle-specific membrane protein with a wide distribution in neuronal and neurosecretory tissue. [PDF]
Two different monoclonal antibodies, characterized initially as binding synaptic terminal regions of rat brain, bind a 65,000-dalton protein, which is exposed on the outer surface of brain synaptic vesicles. Immunocytochemical experiments at the electron

Circadian Organization in Hemimetabolous Insects [PDF]
The circadian system of hemimetabolous insects is reviewed in respect to the locus of the circadian clock and multioscillatory organization. Because of relatively easy access to the nervous system, the neuronal organization of the clock system in ...

A visual motor psychological test as a predictor to treatment in nocturnal enuresis [PDF]
Background and Aims: The neurological control of bladder function and the ability to be dry at night involves not only the acquisition of normal daytime control, but also the establishment of a circadian rhythm in vasopressin release and the ability to ...

Ca2+ uptake to purified secretory vesicles from bovine neurohypophyses [PDF]
Purified secretory vesicles isolated from bovine neurohypophyses were found to take up Ca2+ when incubated at 30°C in media containing 10−7 to 10−4 M free Ca2+. At 10−4 free Ca2+ 19 nmol/mg protein were taken up within 30 min.

The locus coeruleus (LC)-norepinephrine (NE) system modulates a range of salient brain functions, including memory and response to stress. The LC-NE system is regulated by neurochemically diverse inputs, including a range of neuropeptides such as ...

A Systems-Theoretical Formalization of Closed Systems [PDF]
There is a lack of formalism for some key foundational concepts in systems engineering. One of the most recently acknowledged deficits is the inadequacy of systems engineering practices for engineering intelligent systems. In our previous works, we proposed that closed systems precepts could be used to accomplish a required paradigm shift for the ...
