ABSTRACT Aim The kidney thick ascending limb (TAL) plays a key role in the transport of sodium, chloride, potassium, calcium, and magnesium. Bartter syndrome is a hypokalemic, salt‐losing tubulopathy caused by impaired TAL function. Pathogenic variants in SLC12A1 or KCNJ1 cause antenatal Bartter syndrome, and variants in CLCNKB result in classical ...

Background and purpose Adult neurogenesis is a tightly regulated process affected by both cannabinoid receptors (CB1 and CB2) and adenosine 2A (A2A) receptors, both of which modulate neural progenitor cell activity. While emerging evidence suggests an interaction between these neuromodulatory systems, the extent and mechanism of their interplay in ...

Is a Team-based Learning Approach to Anatomy Teaching Superior to Didactic Lecturing?
Objectives: Team-based learning (TBL) is used in the medical field to implement interactive learning in small groups. The learning of anatomy and its subsequent application requires the students to recall a great deal of factual content. The aims of this

Pioglitazone Ameliorates Neuron Loss in the Cortex after Aluminum-Treatment in Rats
The objective was evaluation of the effects of pioglitazone on medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC) of the rats exposed to aluminum (Al). Al induces structural changes in several brain regions, including mPFC.

Oestrogen modulates stress‐induced vagally‐dependent gastric responses to oxytocin
Abstract figure legend In female rats, PVNCRF‐DMV neurons and DMV CRF1 receptors are tonically active, allowing oxytocin (OXT) to modulate inhibitory GABAergic transmission to DMV neurons. Parasympathetic control of gastric functions involves engagement of non‐adrenergic non‐cholinergic vagal efferent pathways, but recruitment of distinct pathways ...
