Induced desensitization.

چکیده
Viewing of annuli modulated in color in a sawtooth fashion in time results in differential threshold elevations for the detection of color changes of inscribed disks. The elevations are of nearly the same magnitude as those resulting from viewing modulated disks. However, the differential effects on thresholds for complimentary colors are reversed. The differential effects, thus, are correlated with the variation in appearance of the test area.

Salbutamol-Induced Desensitization and Attempts to Resensitize In Vitro
The study was carried out to desensitize spontaneously active isolated chick rectum with salbutamol in log doses starting from 100 nanogram and resensitize with various drugs as a result to revive the desensitized tissue and respond to Salbutamol. The tissue response after desensitization to alpha, beta adrenergic and muscarinic acetylcholine receptor antagonists was isotonically recorded for 1...
متن کاملMorphine-Induced mu-opioid receptor desensitization.
Morphine has been widely accepted as the opioid agonist that sustains signaling because it does not cause receptor desensitization or internalization. This notion has led to the hypothesis that long-term morphine treatment initiates downstream adaptations that underlie tolerance and dependence. This study uses whole-cell recordings from neurons in the locus ceruleus to measure the potassium cur...
متن کاملThe alkyl chain dependence of the effect of normal alcohols on agonist-induced nicotinic acetylcholine receptor desensitization kinetics.
BACKGROUND The nAcChoR is the prototypical member of a superfamily of ligand-gated ion channels that are all relevant targets of anesthetics and undergo desensitization upon prolonged exposure to agonist. This study was designed to investigate the effects of representative normal alcohols on the apparent rate of acetylcholine-induced nAcChoR desensitization. METHODS Nicotinic acetylcholine re...
متن کاملDifferential activation and desensitization of sensory neurons by resiniferatoxin.
Recently, with use of rat dorsal root ganglion (DRG) neurons we have been able to dissociate the binding affinities of vanilloids from their potencies to induce 45Ca uptake, which suggests the existence of distinct classes of the vanilloid receptor (). In the present study, we have demonstrated that the ultrapotent capsaicin analog resiniferatoxin (RTX) desensitized rat DRG neurons to the subse...
متن کاملDesensitization protocols for vancomycin hypersensitivity.
OBJECTIVE To discuss the pathophysiology of vancomycin-induced immediate hypersensitivity reactions, review the process of vancomycin desensitization, and provide specific directions for ordering and preparing rapid and slow desensitization protocols. DATA SOURCES A MEDLINE search (1966-February 2001) of English-language literature pertaining to vancomycin desensitization and hypersensitivity...
متن کاملTransient resensitization interrupting the development of carbachol-induced desensitization in smooth muscle of guinea-pig taenia caeci: Ca2+-dependent termination of resensitization.
It is important to clarify developmental mechanisms of desensitization because of their great significance in regulation of cellular responsiveness. We have found that carbachol-induced desensitization to carbachol develops in three successive phases in the presence of extracellular Ca(2+) in the smooth muscle of guinea pig taenia caeci: fast desensitization within 15 s, transient resensitizati...
