Clinicopathologic features of ovarian mixed mesodermal tumors and carcinosarcomas
(Elsevier, 1989-02)
Over a 27-year period there were 15 patients treated at the University of Michigan Medical center for carcinosarcomas or mixed mesodermal tumors of the ovary. Overall median survival was 11 months. Median survival was 4 ...
The effects of footshock stress on regional brain dopamine metabolism and pituitary [beta]-endorphin release in rats previously sensitized to amphetamine
(Elsevier, 1987-07)
The repeated intermittent administration of amphetamine (AMP) produces an enduring enhancement in the response of dopamine (DA) systems in the brain to a subsequent "challenge" with amphetamine. However, former amphetamine ...
Ganglion cell acuity in hooded rats
(Elsevier, 1982)
Previous measurements of retinal ganglion cell acuity in hooded rats have differed significantly from behavioral tests of visual acuity. One possible source of this discrepancy is examined--that light deprivation in early ...
CCK antagonists reveal that CCK-8 and JMV-180 interact with different sites on the rat pancreatic acinar cell CCKA receptor
(Elsevier, 1994)
The ability of CCKA antagonists to inhibit full and partial CCK agonists of the rat pancreatic acinar cell CCKA receptor has been studied. When isolated rat pancreatic acini were superfused with CCK-8 (10 pM-1 nM) or CCK-4 ...
Muscarine-sensitive voltage-dependent potassium current in cultured murine spinal cord neurons
(Elsevier, 1983-01-31)
Muscarine produced membrane depolarization and decreased membrane conductance of mouse spinal cord neurons in dissociated cell culture. When the neurons were voltage clamped, muscarine evoked inward currents which increased ...
The bicoherence theory of situational irony
(Lawrence Erlbaum Associates, Inc.Blackwell Publishing Ltd, 2001-09)
Situational irony concerns what it is about a situation that causes people to describe it as ironic. Although situational irony is as complex and commonplace as verbal and literary irony, it has received nowhere near the ...
Deterministic functions of cortical acetylcholine
(Vrije Universiteit BrusselsWiley Periodicals, Inc., 2014-06)
Traditional descriptions of the basal forebrain cholinergic projection system to the cortex have focused on neuromodulatory influences, that is, mechanisms that modulate cortical information processing but are not necessary ...
Cytoskeletal and Phosphoinositide Requirements for Muscarinic Receptor Signaling to Focal Adhesion Kinase and Paxillin
(Blackwell Science Ltd, 1998-03)
The mechanism whereby agonist occupancy of muscarinic cholinergic receptors elicits an increased tyrosine phosphorylation of focal adhesion kinase (FAK) and paxillin has been examined. Addition of oxotremorine-M to SH-SY5Y ...
Synaptic organization of regenerated retina in the goldfish
(Wiley-Liss, Inc., 1994-05-22)
In the adult goldfish, any manipulation that significantly depletes retinal neurons stimulates neurogenesis and the regeneration of nearly normal retina. We sought to determine the extent to which the regenerated neurons ...
Receptor Binding Techniques
(Wiley Periodicals, Inc.Elsevier/North‐Holland Biomedical Press, 1997-09)
This overview first discusses issues relating to the selection of radioligand for receptor binding assays, including the isotopic label and considerations pertaining to the pharmacological and chemical profile of the ligand. ...
