Calcification of valved aortic allografts in rats: Effects of age, crosslinking, and inhibitors
(John Wiley & Sons, Inc., 1995-02)
Experiments were carried out to investigate rat aortic allograft calcification using valved abdominal aortic allografts. Results indicated that this was a potentially useful model for investigating fresh allograft ...
Effects of neuropeptide Y, insulin, 2-deoxyglucose, and food deprivation on food-motivated behavior
(Springer-Verlag, 1995-08)
The current study demonstrates the ability of neuropeptide Y (NPY) to increase break points under a progressive ratio 1 (PR1) reinforcement schedule. An initial response resulted in delivery of a food reinforcer (45 mg ...
Design of molecular architectures for polymeric mesophase formation
(Wiley Periodicals, Inc.Hüthig & Wepf Verlag, 1995-07)
Based on the tendency of low molar mass liquid crystals composed of extended mesogens symmetrically disubstituted with long n ‐alkoxy substituents to exhibit smectic C mesophases, we have proposed that SCLCPs with laterally ...
Competitive and uncompetitive N -methyl- d -aspartate antagonist discriminations in pigeons: CGS 19755 and phencyclidine
(Springer-Verlag, 1995-03)
The purpose of the present studies was to examine representative uncompetitive and competitive NMDA antagonists, as well as the glycine/NMDA antagonist, HA 966, in pigeons trained to discriminate either PCP or CGS 19755 ...
Site-Directed Mutagenesis Studies on the Lima Bean Lectin
(Blackwell Science Ltd, 1995-06)
Scintigraphy of incidentally discovered bilateral adrenal masses
(Springer-Verlag, 1995-04)
The purpose of this study was to determine the patterns of iodine-131 6β-iodomethylnorcholesterol (NP-59) imaging and the correlation with computed tomography (CT)-guided adrenal biopsy and follow-up in patients with ...
Continuous medium perfusion leads to long-term cell viability and oxygen production in high-density photobioreactors
(Kluwer Academic Publishers; Chapman & Hall, London ; Springer Science+Business Media, 1995-11)
A light-emitting diode-based photobioreactor (LED-based PBR) operated in a continuous perfusion mode with a perfusion rate of 3 to 6 reactor volumes a day supports high-density algal cultures, of cell concentrations up to ...
Individual differences in sensitivity to nicotine: Implications for genetic research on nicotine dependence
(Kluwer Academic Publishers-Plenum Publishers; Plenum Publishing Corporation ; Springer Science+Business Media, 1995-03)
Recent evidence suggests that cigarette smoking has a heritability index around 53%. While related research on underlying mechanisms also supports the idea that genetic factors contribute to nicotine dependence—as well as ...
“Escape” of aldosterone production in patients with left ventricular dysfunction treated with an angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitor: Implications for therapy
(Kluwer Academic Publishers; Springer Science+Business Media, 1995-02)
Despite the findings in randomized trials of a significant effect of angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors in reducing morbidity and mortality of patients with symptomatic left ventricular dysfunction, the morbidity ...
