Plautus Rudens 160—2. Schoell

C2nr33292b 1592..1602

We present orientation dependence and tuning of Fano resonances in plasmonic gold nanorod heptamer nanostructures. The heptamer structures were formed by surrounding a central circular nanoparticle by six satellite nanorods in a hexagonal arrangement and the heptamer structures were then embedded in a thin flexible membrane. The Fano resonance was found to depend on the orientation of the nanor...

The Marriage of Plautus and Boccaccio

iological children come from a coupling of parents, and this is often true for intellectual children as well. In the case of the reinvention of comedy in Italy at the beginning of the sixteenth century, two sources, Plautus and Boccaccio, converged in a happy and productive marriage that would have a long list of offspring. The marriage was prominently performed in 1513, although an engagement ...

1602 Sympathetic and Nonsympathetic Neuropeptide Y - Containing Nerves in the Rat Myocardium and Coronary Arteries

We have examined the neuropeptide Y-containing intrinsic nerves of the heart in young (6-week-old) and adult (4-month-old) rats to determine whether they project to the coronary arteries or are capable of doing so if the neuropeptide Y-containing extrinsic nerves are removed. Chronic treatment of neonates with guanethidine was used to permanently destroy the sympathetic nerves. In the young tre...

Anti-inflammatory role of cannabidiol and O-1602 in cerulein-induced acute pancreatitis in mice.

OBJECTIVES The anti-inflammatory effects of O-1602 and cannabidiol (CBD), the ligands of G protein-coupled receptor 55 (GPR55), on experimental acute pancreatitis (AP) were investigated. METHODS Acute pancreatitis was induced in C57BL mice by intraperitoneal injection of 50 μg/kg cerulein hourly, with a total of 6 times. Drugs (O-1602, 10 mg/kg, or CBD, 0.5 mg/kg) were given by intraperitonea...
