Amplitude-integrated electroencephalography (aEEG) provides us with a method of assessing brain activity in critically ill neonates. In extremely premature neonates, the aEEG trace is predominantly di…
The steady state compositions of omega-6 and omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) throughout the various viscera and tissues within the whole body of rats have not previously been described in a…
BACKGROUND: Gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) and glutamate (GLU) are involved in nociceptive signals processing in the trigeminal system. In this study, we investigated the influence of excitatory trans…
Methylmercury poisoning exhibit prominent signs and symptoms of the central nervous system. In an attempt to study the mechanism of toxicity, mercuric chloride (HgCl2) and methyl mercury chloride (CH3…
Carbon nanotubes are promising new tools in biomedicine but they may have yet some unknown influences on the organism. In the present study, the acute effect of solubilized, multi-walled carbon nanotu…
To investigate the detailed actions of transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-beta) in the brain, which increase accompanied with continuity of exercise, the authors performed electroencephalogram (EEG)…
Previous reports that central administration of arginine vasopressin (AVP) increases turnover of brain catecholamines raise the possibility that the pressor responses which follow central administrati…
AIM: Neurological disorders are a major public health issue worldwide and are often associated with structural changes in the brain. We have previously demonstrated that iso-á-acids (IAAs), the hop-de…
The alpha3beta4 subtype of the neuronal nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (nAChR) subtype was immobilized on a liquid chromatographic support and the resulting column used for the rapid and direct on-l…
Herein we report a murine model to examine transplacental transmission, transmammary transmission, or both, of Neospora caninum. Prevalence of transplacental transmission in outbred Swiss-Webster mous…
We examined neuronal activity in three motor cortical areas while a rhesus monkey adapted to novel visuomotor transforms. The monkey moved a joystick that controlled a cursor on a video screen. Each t…
Action potentials were recorded from the L7 or S1 dorsal root of the cat following stimulation of the peripheral end of the cut ventral root of the same segment. Conversely, action potentials were als…
The present study was undertaken to clarify the central mechanisms involved in the intracerebroventricularly administered corticotropin-releasing factor-induced elevation of plasma corticosterone in u…
Fluorine and aluminum are able to pass through the blood-brain barrier and accumulate in the central nervous system (CNS) of exposed animals. Chronic intoxication is accompanied by behavioral disorder…
The distribution of neuronal nitric oxide synthase (nNOS) containing neurons and fibers in subnuclei of the nucleus tractus solitarii (NTS) in the squirrel monkey, Saimuri sciureus, was investigated b…
Pyrolysis combined with gas chromatography and mass spectrometry (Py-GC/MS) was applied for structural investigations of the human substantia nigra neuromelanin. Using synthetic neuromelanins, we have…
Neuropeptide contents of rat brain samples were determined by radioimmunoassay (RIA) after fractionation of tissue extracts by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). Solvent systems were compo…
A method has been developed to quantify ritonavir concentrations in human plasma and in mouse serum, liver, and brain using high-performance liquid chromatography. Extraction recoveries for ritonavir …
Planning of behavior relies on the integrity of the mid-dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (mid-dlPFC). Yet, only indirect evidence exists on the association of protracted maturation of dlPFC and continui…
Acetylcholine (ACh) is one of the main signals regulating nitric oxide synthase (NOS) expression and nitric oxide (NO) biosynthesis in mammals. However, few comparative studies have been performed on …
