The free autografting of entire limb muscles in the cat: Morphology Supported by grants by the Muscular Dystrophy Association to BMC and JAF and an MDA Postdoctoral Fellowship to SAM.
(Wiley Subscription Services, Inc., A Wiley Company, 1977-08)
Normal or pre-denervated extensor digitorum longus (EDL) muscles were successfully grafted in place of the contralateral EDL muscles in cats. Histological preparations of 57 grafts were examined at intervals from 4 to 170 ...
Response characteristics of lamb trigeminal neurons to stimulation of the oral cavity and epiglottis with different sensory modalities
(Elsevier, 1989-05)
A region of the trigeminal complex located at the border of the subnucleus interpolaris and subnucleus caudalis receives not only trigeminal nerve inputs from the face, tongue and palate, but also afferent terminations ...
Responses of neurons in the lamb nucleus tractus solitarius to stimulation of the caudal oral cavity and epiglottis with different stimulus modalities
(Elsevier, 1989-02-20)
Receptors located in the posterior oral cavity and on the epiglottis play an important role in the initiation of upper airway reflexes such as swallowing, gagging, coughing and apnea. Peripheral nerves which innervate these ...
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 ...
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 ...
Rat Pancreatic Nucleoside Diphosphate Kinase, a Novel Regulator of Cholecystokinin Receptor Affinity
(Blackwell Publishing Ltd, 1994-03)
Light-evoked sustained inhibition in mudpuppy retinal ganglion cells
(Elsevier, 1982)
Intracellular recordings were made from off-center ganglion cells in the retina of the mudpuppy. Necturus maculosus. Current-voltage measurements revealed that the sustained light-evoked hyperpolarization of these cells ...
More TORC for the gluconeogenic engine
(Wiley Subscription Services, Inc., A Wiley Company, 2006-03)
Hepatic gluconeogenesis plays a key role in the maintenance of glucose homeostasis. The hormone glucagon stimulates this process, whereas insulin and adiponectin are inhibitory. In a recent report, Koo et al identify the ...
Sarcolemma-localized nNOS is required to maintain activity after mild exercise
(Nature Publishing Group, 2008-11-27)
Many neuromuscular conditions are characterized by an exaggerated exercise- induced fatigue response that is disproportionate to activity level. This fatigue is not necessarily correlated with greater central or peripheral ...
Amylin increases cyclic AMP formation in L6 myocytes through calcitonin gene-related peptide receptors
(Elsevier, 1991-06-14)
The cellular function of amylin is investigated in L6 myocytes, a rat skeletal muscle cell line. Both rat amylin and human amylin-amide acutely cause a dose-dependent increase in cyclic AMP formation in L6 myocytes. 100 ...
