Inhibition of Vesicular Glutamate Uptake by Rose Bengal-Related Compounds: Structure–Activity Relationship
(Kluwer Academic Publishers-Plenum Publishers; Springer Science+Business Media, Inc., 2005-03)
Synaptic vesicular accumulation of glutamate is a vital initial step in glutamate transmission. We have previously shown that Rose Bengal, a polyhalogenated fluorescein analog, is a potent inhibitor of glutamate uptake ...
Effect of Neuropeptide Y on Natural Killer Activity of Normal Human Lymphocytes
(Elsevier, 1993-03)
The in vitro effect of neuropeptide Y (NPY) on natural killer (NK) cell activities of normal lymphocytes was investigated. NPY at 10-9 to 10-12M concentrations produced significant suppression of NK activity against K 562 ...
Influence of stuttering therapy on clinicians' disfluencies: Effects of client modeling
(Elsevier, 1980-12)
This study investigated whether student clinicians working with stutterers subsequently produce more disfluencies than student clinicians providing therapy to clients with other speech and language disorders. Seventeen ...
Contingency contracting to enhance patient compliance: A review
(Elsevier, 1984)
Researchers and practitioners have expressed considerable interest in contingency contracting as a promising intervention strategy for enlisting patient cooperation, particularly with regard to long-term treatment regimens. ...
Ornithine decarboxylase activity in retinal explants of goldfish undergoing optic nerve regeneration
(Elsevier, 1981-06)
Retinal explants cultured in the presence of fetal calf serum (FCS) exhibit an increase in the activity of ornithine decarboxylase which is maximal several hours after explanation. The measured activity of this enzyme is ...
Developmental changes in taste responses from glossopharyngeal nerve in sheep and comparisons with chorda tympani responses
(Elsevier, 1983-12)
To learn whether there are developmental changes in salt and acid taste responses from the posterior tongue, we recorded from the glossopharyngeal nerve, which innervates taste buds in circumvallate papillae, in sheep ...
The effects of menstrual phase and nicotine abstinence on nicotine intake and on biochemical and subjective measures in women smokers: a A preliminary report
(Elsevier, 1992-11)
Nicotine intake, menstrual and smoking withdrawal symptomatology, and baseline cortisol and MHPG were assessed in nine women smokers under conditions of ad lib smoking and overnight abstinence in three menstrual phases ...
Inhibition of polyphosphoinositide phosphodiesterase by aminoglycoside antibiotics
(Kluwer Academic Publishers-Plenum Publishers; Plenum Publishing Corporation ; Springer Science+Business Media, 1985-08)
The calcium-activated phosphodiesteratic hydrolysis of 32 P-labeled phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate and phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate in prelabeled nerve ending membranes is inhibited by the aminoglycosides neomycin ...
