Intersection Between Local Anesthetics and Cancer Biology: What Now? Where Are We Going?

open access: yesAdvanced Biology, EarlyView.
Local anesthetics (LAs), widely used in anesthesia, may also play a role in cancer treatment by inhibiting tumor growth, reducing metastasis, and enhancing immune responses. They modulate key pathways like AKT/mTOR and RAS/ERK while affecting angiogenesis and tumor innervation and the immune response.

Cleaning patch-clamp pipettes for immediate reuse

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2016
Patch-clamp recording has enabled single-cell electrical, morphological and genetic studies at unparalleled resolution. Yet it remains a laborious and low-throughput technique, making it largely impractical for large-scale measurements such as cell type ...

Mechanical Behavior and Microstructural Changes Associated with Tensile Deformation above the Martensite Start Temperature during Quenching and Subsequent Partitioning of a Low‐Alloy 37SiB6 Steel

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
A new experimental setup, incorporating digital image correlation and infrared thermography in combination with inductive‐conductive heating for precise temperature control, is used to analyze the mechanical behavior and microstructural changes of sheet metal under complex thermomechanical test conditions that represent quench and partitioning ...

Influence of Global and Local Membrane Curvature on Mechanosensitive Ion Channels: A Finite Element Approach

open access: yesMembranes, 2016
Mechanosensitive (MS) channels are ubiquitous molecular force sensors that respond to a number of different mechanical stimuli including tensile, compressive and shear stress.

Allosteric modulation of retinal GABA receptors by ascorbic acid [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Ionotropic GABA receptors (GABAA and GABAC) belong to the Cys-loop receptor family of ligand-gated ion channels. GABAC receptors are highly expressed in the retina, mainly localized at the axon terminals of bipolar cells.

Development of Automated Patch Clamp Technique to Investigate CFTR Chloride Channel Function

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology, 2017
The chloride (Cl-) channel cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) is defective in cystic fibrosis (CF), and mutation of its encoding gene leads to various defects such as retention of the misfolded protein in the endoplasmic reticulum,

Patch-Clamping Fly Brain Neurons

open access: yesCold Spring Harbor Protocols, 2022
The membrane potential of excitable cells, such as neurons and muscle cells, experiences a rich repertoire of dynamic changes mediated by an array of ligand- and voltage-gated ion channels. Central neurons, in particular, are fantastic computators of information, sensing, and integrating multiple subthreshold currents mediated by synaptic inputs and ...

Finite Element Modeling of Residual Stress Formation during Nanosecond Laser Ablation of Stainless Steel

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
This article investigates residual stress formation during single‐spot nanosecond laser ablation of stainless steel. Experimental validation and a parametric study using finite element simulations are employed to analyze thermal effects, ablation dynamics, and stress evolution.

Establishment of an automated patch-clamp platform for electrophysiological and pharmacological evaluation of hiPSC-CMs

open access: yesStem Cell Research, 2019
Human induced pluripotent stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes (hiPSC-CMs) have evolved into widely used and reliable cell sources for modeling cardiovascular channelopathies and for drug safety pharmacology.

Cantu syndrome–associated SUR2 (ABCC9) mutations in distinct structural domains result in KATP channel gain-of-function by differential mechanisms [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
The complex disorder Cantu syndrome (CS) arises from gainof-function mutations in either KCNJ8 or ABCC9, the genes encoding the Kir6.1 and SUR2 subunits of ATP-sensitive potassium (KATP) channels, respectively. Recent reports indicate that such mutations
