Pharmacological and Fluorometric Assessment of Neuronal KCNQ Channels, and Implications for Understanding Neurological Disease
DownloadSpring 2020
Epilepsy affects 60 million people worldwide, and encompasses the most common forms of neurological disorders. Epilepsy manifests in diverse ways in patients, ranging from mild cognitive effects, to seizures, to the more severe epileptic encephalopathy. While many pharmacological approaches exist...

Background: Up to 40% of patients are prescribed opioids prior to total knee arthroplasty (TKA) in the USA. These patients prescribed preoperative opioids have increased complications and worse outcomes after surgery. But, the impact of preoperative opioid use on patient-reported outcome (PRO)...

One of the methods of study of black holes in astrophysics is based on broaden- ing of the spectrum of radiation of ionized iron atoms. The line Kα associated with iron emission at 6.4 keV is very narrow. If such an ion is revolving around a black hole, this line is effectively broadened as a...

The effects of a magnetic field on the Raman and two‐plasmon decay instabilities are studied in the region of the quarter‐critical density of laser produced plasmas where both are coincident. Two‐plasmon decay of the incident extraordinary wave into two upper‐hybrid waves may now occur in the...

Glomus cells of the carotid body are peripheral chemoreceptors that detect changes in arterial oxygen levels. Hypoxia suppresses oxygen-sensitive K+ channels in glomus cells, resulting in cytosolic Ca2+ ([Ca2+]i) elevation in glomus cells via the activation of voltage-gated Ca2+ channels. The...

Regulation of Cardiac Gap Junctional Communication: Metabolic regulation of Cx40 and Cx43 via phosphorylation
DownloadFall 2015
Alterations in myocardial metabolism and cardiac electrophysiology associated with structural heart disease generate lethal arrhythmias. Differential levels of energy (ATP) supply and demand are generated with structural heart disease that is expected to activate 5’-amp activated protein kinase...

Regulation of collagen type I production by ionizing radiation and transforming growth factor-β1 in primary human skin fibroblasts derived from early stage breast cancer patients in relation to acute radiation-induced toxicity
DownloadFall 2011
Regulation of collagen type I (CI) in fibroblasts is critical for the onset and development of skin toxicities induced by radiation therapy (RT). Transforming growth factor beta-1 (TGF-β1) and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) promote CI synthesis, while its degradation is modulated by...
