Pancreatic beta cells synthesize neuropeptide Y and can rapidly release peptide co-transmitters. [PDF]
In addition to polypeptide hormones, pancreatic endocrine cells synthesize a variety of bioactive molecules including classical transmitters and neuropeptides. While these co-transmitters are thought to play a role in regulating hormone release little is

Npy deletion in an alcohol non-preferring rat model elicits differential effects on alcohol consumption and body weight. [PDF]
Neuropeptide Y (NPY) is widely expressed in the central nervous system and influences many physiological processes. It is located within the rat quantitative trait locus (QTL) for alcohol preference on chromosome 4.

Double labelling immunohistochemical characterization of autonomic sympathetic neurons innervating the sow retractor clitoridis muscle [PDF]
Retrograde neuronal tracing and immunohistochemical methods were used to define the neurochemical content of sympathetic neurons projecting to the sow retractor clitoridis muscle (RCM). Differently from the other smooth muscles of genital organs, the RCM

A receptor-based analysis of local ecosystems in the human brain. [PDF]
BackgroundAs a complex system, the brain is a self-organizing entity that depends on local interactions among cells. Its regions (anatomically defined nuclei and areas) can be conceptualized as cellular ecosystems, but the similarity of their functional ...

Abstract Objective To evaluate the practicability of self‐collected tampons with the MPap assay for endometrial cancer (EC) detection, by comparing with the results of cervical swabs. Methods A total of 85 women at Tri‐Service General Hospital (TSGH) were included to directly compare the performance of physician‐collected swabs and self‐collected ...

The Strongly Asynchronous Massive Access Channel
This paper considers a Strongly Asynchronous and Slotted Massive Access Channel (SAS-MAC) where $K_n:=e^{n\nu}$ different users transmit a randomly selected message among $M_n:=e^{nR}$ ones within a strong asynchronous window of length $A_n:=e^{n\alpha}$

Anterior Nasal Nerves: A Cadaveric Anatomic and Immunohistochemical Analysis
Anterior nasal nerves (ANNs) were identified in all cadavers, with more supplying the anterolateral nasal wall (ALNW) than the anterior portion of the inferior turbinate (IT), between the pyriform aperture (PA) and middle turbinate (MT). Both sensory and autonomic nerve markers were also identified in the ANNs.

Pancreatic cancer cachexia: a review of mechanisms and therapeutics. [PDF]
Over the last decade, we have gained new insight into the pathophysiology of cachexia associated with pancreatic cancer. Unfortunately, its treatment is complex and remains a challenge.
