Contribution of chloride channels to the action potential and contraction in human myometrium during labour

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Background and purpose The action potential underpinning calcium delivery for contraction in human uterine smooth muscle (myometrium) consists of an initial spike(s) followed by a prolonged plateau of depolarization to ⁓ −25 mV. The plateau duration establishes contraction duration, especially important in labour.

Characterization of a monoclonal antibody that induces the acrosome reaction of sea urchin sperm. [PDF]

open access: yes, 1987
A monoclonal antibody, J18/29, induces the acrosome reaction (AR) in spermatozoa of the sea urchin Strongylocentrotus purpuratus. J18/29 induces increases in both intracellular Ca2+ and intracellular pH similar to those occurring upon induction of the AR

Scalable Matrigel‐Free Suspension Culture for Generating High‐Quality Human Liver Ductal Organoids

open access: yesCell Proliferation, EarlyView.
A novel matrigel‐free suspension culture enhances the generation of high‐quality human liver ductal organoids, which shows remarkable efficacy in mice transplantation. ABSTRACT Liver transplantation is currently the sole definitive treatment option for end‐stage liver failure.

Beneficial effect of infiltration around the greater occipital nerve in cluster headache independent of modulation of the nociceptive blink reflex

open access: yesHeadache: The Journal of Head and Face Pain, EarlyView.
Abstract Objectives and Background We aimed to explore the effect of greater occipital nerve (GON) infiltration on trigeminal transmission and its relation to clinical response. Infiltration of the GON with a local anesthetic and corticosteroids is effective in the treatment of both episodic (ECH) and chronic cluster headache (CCH).

Factors associated with efficacy of occipital nerve stimulation in medically intractable chronic cluster headache

open access: yesHeadache: The Journal of Head and Face Pain, EarlyView.
Abstract Background/Objective Occipital nerve stimulation (ONS) has become an established therapy for medically intractable chronic cluster headache (MICCH), but unfortunately, one third of the patients do not respond satisfactorily. Reliable predictors of treatment success would help physicians improve indication for ONS in MICCH.

Influence of Water Temperature on the MXR Activity and P-glycoprotein Expression in the Freshwater Snail, Physa acuta (Draparnaud, 1805) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
P-glycoprotein (P-gp) mediated multixenobioticresistance (MXR) is a mechanism analogous to multidrug resistance, which has been extensivelycharacterized in mammalian tumours.

Galcanezumab reduces trigeminal nociception and is effective in preclinical models of migraine and trigeminal autonomic cephalalgias

open access: yesHeadache: The Journal of Head and Face Pain, EarlyView.
Abstract Objectives/Background This study was undertaken to assess the therapeutic efficacy of galcanezumab in preclinical models of migraine and cluster headache and to determine potential shared trigeminovascular mechanisms of action. Galcanezumab is a humanized monoclonal antibody that binds to the neuropeptide calcitonin gene‐related peptide ...
