5-HT(2)-type serotonin receptors (5-HT(2)Rs) are widely expressed throughout the brain and mediate many of the modulatory effects of serotonin. It has been thought that postsynaptic 5-HT(2)Rs act primarily by depolarizing neurons and thereby increasing their excitability. However, it is also known that 5-HT(2)Rs are coupled to G(q/11)-type G-proteins and that some other types of G(q/11)-coupled...

PURPOSE There are several techniques for measuring macular pigment (MP) in vivo, of which Raman spectroscopy (RS) is a recently developed objective METHOD This study reports the reproducibility, test-retest variability, and validity of RS MP readings, by comparing them with heterochromatic flicker photometry (HFP). METHODS MP was measured with HFP and RS in 120 healthy subjects, and the lat...

BACKGROUND The malignant nature of Hodgkin-Reed Sternberg (H-RS) cells has been questioned due to their scarcity in lymphoma tissues. Recently, using micromanipulation of H-RS cells and single cell PCR evidence was obtained that H-RS cells represent a clonal B-cell population. In these studies H-RS cells were isolated from each one lymph node for a given case. In classical Hodgkin's disease (HD...

Head injuries account for significant proportion of neurosurgical admissions and bed occupancy. Patients with head injuries also consume significant proportions of neurosurgical resources. A prospective 6-month study has been carried out to evaluate the expenditure incurred on head injury patients in a modern neurosurgical center equipped with state of the art infrastructure. Costing areas incl...
