An Enrichment Method for Obtaining Biologically Significant Genes from Statistically Significant Differentially Expressed Genes in Comparative Transcriptomics [PDF]
Cells coordinate adjustments in genome expression to accommodate changes in their environment. A drug in culture media for in vitro preclinical testing sometimes cause drastic regime shifting of genome expression system depending on the concentrations; e.g.

Phenobarbital Therapy for Alcohol Withdrawal [PDF]
For the treatment of alcohol withdrawal syndrome (AWS), phenobarbital works differently than benzodiazepines. Benzodiazepines activate only gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) whereas phenobarbital has the additional mechanism of inhibiting glutamate ...

Elucidation of differential response networks from toxicogenomics data [PDF]
We describe a novel approach to the analysis of toxicogenomics data and elucidation of biological networks affected by drug treatments. In this method approximately 15,000 linear pathway modules were generated from manually assembled pathway maps from MetaCore (GeneGo, Inc.).

Metabolism of 2,2',3,3',6,6'-hexachlorobiphenyl (PCB 136) atropisomers in tissue slices from phenobarbital or dexamethasone-induced rats is sex-dependent. [PDF]
1. Chiral polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) such as PCB 136 enantioselectively sensitize the ryanodine receptor (RyR). In light of recent evidence that PCBs cause developmental neurotoxicity via RyR-dependent mechanisms, this suggests that ...

In this study, the authors show that osteocytes, mechanosensing cells embedded within bone, can indeed regulate prostate cancer cell extravasation through a blood vessel using a physiologically relevant tissue model. Specifically, it is shown that osteocytes modulate the expression of blood vessel cell adhesion molecules, affecting the frequency at ...

Suspected phenobarbital-induced fever in a cat
Case summary A 3-year-old spayed female domestic shorthair cat developed a fever 1 week after starting the anticonvulsant phenobarbital. A diagnostic work-up for seizures and subsequent onset of fever of unknown origin, consisting of MRI of the brain ...

Bumetanide enhances phenobarbital efficacy in a rat model of hypoxic neonatal seizures. [PDF]
Neonatal seizures can be refractory to conventional anticonvulsants, and this may in part be due to a developmental increase in expression of the neuronal Na(+)-K(+)-2 Cl(-) cotransporter, NKCC1, and consequent paradoxical excitatory actions of GABAA ...

Buprenorphine in Neonatal Abstinence Syndrome. [PDF]
Infants exposed in utero to opioids will demonstrate a withdrawal syndrome known as neonatal abstinence syndrome (NAS). Buprenorphine is a long-acting opioid with therapeutic use in medication-assisted treatment of opioid dependency in adults and ...

Translation of recombinant spider silks as fillers for nerve guidance conduits in long‐segment nerve reconstruction demands a detailed examination of native counterparts. Thus, this study conducts a comprehensive analysis of the material properties of four phylogenetically diverse spider silks and their impact on Schwann cell adhesion, pinpointing key ...

The immunolocalization of HIF‐2α, GLUT1 and CAIX in porcine oviduct during the estrous cycle
Abstract Oxygen (O2) rates in the oviduct are essential to human and animal reproduction. These rates are regulated by the activity of hypoxia markers such as the hypoxia‐inducible factors (HIFs), the glucose transporters (GLUT), and the carbonic anhydrase (CA).
