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 ...
Diabetic neuropathy: inhibitory G protein dysfunction involves PKC-dependent phosphorylation of G oα
(Blackwell Science Ltd, 2003-08)
We examined the hypothesis that decreased inhibitory G protein function in diabetic neuropathy is associated with increased protein kinase C (PKC)-dependent phosphorylation of the G oα subunit. Streptozotocin-induced ...
c-Fos expression in preoptic nuclei as a marker of sleep rebound in the rat
(Blackwell Publishing Ltd, 2009-08)
Temporal pattern of C1q deposition after transient focal cerebral ischemia
(Wiley Subscription Services, Inc., A Wiley Company, 2006-04)
Recent studies have focused on elucidating the contribution of individual complement proteins to post-ischemic cellular injury. As the timing of complement activation and deposition after cerebral ischemia is not well ...
Cortical thickness is not associated with current depression in a clinical treatment study
(Wiley Periodicals, Inc.Biophysics Research Institute, Medical College of Wisconsin, 2017-09)
BackgroundReduced cortical thickness is a candidate biological marker of depression, although findings are inconsistent. This could reflect analytic heterogeneity, such as use of region‐wise cortical thickness based on the ...
Identifying and Validating Causal Genetic Alterations in Human Breast Cancer
(Kluwer Academic Publishers; Springer Science+Business Media, 2003-04)
An important mechanism for the activation of proto-oncogenes in human breast and other cancers is gene amplification, which results in gene overexpression at both the message and the protein levels. Recent studies have ...
Neuronal Nogo‐A regulates glutamate receptor subunit expression in hippocampal neurons
(Blackwell Publishing LtdWiley Periodicals, Inc., 2011-12)
Nogo‐A and its cognate receptor NogoR1 (NgR1) are both expressed in neurons. To explore the function of these proteins in neurons of the CNS, we carried out a series of studies using postnatal hippocampal neurons in culture. ...

(American Psychiatric AssociationWiley Periodicals, Inc., 2013-04)
You Get What You Need: An Examination of Purpose‐Based Inheritance Reasoning in Undergraduates, Preschoolers, and Biological Experts
(Oxford University PressWiley Periodicals, Inc., 2014-03)
This set of seven experiments examines reasoning about the inheritance and acquisition of physical properties in preschoolers, undergraduates, and biology experts. Participants ( N = 390) received adoption vignettes in ...
Time course of tinnitus development following noise exposure in mice
(Wiley Subscription Services, Inc., A Wiley Company, 2012-07)
Gap‐induced prepulse inhibition of acoustic startle (GPIAS) has been used in rats and mice to study the problem of tinnitus. The current study demonstrates that similar methods can be used to study the temporal development ...
