Expression and Circular Dichroism Studies of the Extracellular Domain of the alpha Subunit of the Nicotinic Acetylcholine Receptor [PDF]

open access: yes, 1997
To provide material suitable for structural studies of the nicotinic acetylcholine receptor, we have expressed and purified the NH2-terminal extracellular domain of the mouse muscle alpha subunit.

Overview of Encapsulated Lysine and Methionine and Their Impacts on Transition Cow Performance and Health

open access: yesAnimal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
The transition period in dairy cows, spanning 3 weeks before and after calving, is a critical phase characterized by increased nutrient demands, reduced dry matter intake (DMI), and elevated risk of metabolic disorders such as negative nutrient balance (NNB), lipolysis, proteolysis, and oxidative stress.

Dosing profile profoundly influences nicotinic acid's ability to improve metabolic control in rats

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2015
Acute nicotinic acid (NiAc) administration results in rapid reduction of plasma FFA concentrations. However, sustained NiAc exposure is associated with tolerance development resulting in return of FFA to pretreatment levels.

Efficacy and safety of a selective partial agonist for nociception/orphanin‐FQ peptide (NOP) receptors in patients with insomnia disorder

open access: yesBritish Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Aims Insomnia is a common sleep disorder, affecting up to 20% of the world population and adversely impacting productivity, health, and overall well‐being. Although pharmacologic options exist to treat insomnia, the health‐related quality of life for patients who are prescribed hypnotics is no higher than for those who are not, revealing a significant ...

Succinic Acid Production by Engineered Mannheimia succiniciproducens and Its Use in Chemoenzymatic Poly(Butylene Succinate) Synthesis

open access: yesBiotechnology and Bioengineering, EarlyView.
Succinic acid is produced by the fermentation of metabolically engineered Mannheimia succiniciproducens, purified, and used to synthesize poly(butylene succinate) using a two‐step process that involves the esterification of succinic acid and ethanol, followed by enzymatic transesterification of diethyl succinate and 1,4‐butanediol.

Sequencing of rabies binding region on nicotinic acteylcholine receptor alpha subunits in four host species [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
• Rabies virus is known to bind to nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAchR) • The virus is known to bind to alpha 1 subunits nAchR • The virus binding region has been characterized in alpha 1 subunits of these receptors • Little research has been ...

Toxicity of Nicotinic Acid

open access: yesExperimental Biology and Medicine, 1938
SummaryNicotinic acid is at least several hundred times less toxic in mice, rats, and guinea pigs than nicotine. Nicotinic acid is devoid of action upon the autonomic ganglia. Nevertheless, repeated administration of large doses, 2 gm. daily, in dogs has resulted in poisoning and deaths.
