To characterize the sequence of retrograde atrial activation in the presence of dual atrioventricular (AV) nodal pathways, we analyzed electrophysiologic data from seven patients in whom discontinuous AV nodal and ventriculoatrial conduction curves could be induced with programmed electrical stimulation. In all patients, electrograms of the high right atrium (HRA), lateral right atrium (LRA), l...

the srk two-parameter cubic equation of state has been used for the calculation of the equilibrium constant using the liquid and vapor fugacity coefficients for three binary mixtures. dew and bubble points have been determined using the equilibrium constants and the phase envelope has been plotted showing dearly that retrograde condenstaion occurs. the following percent deviations have been obt...

In humans, the phenomenon of temporally graded retrograde amnesia has been described in the clinic and the laboratory for more than 100 years. In the 1990s, retrograde amnesia began to be studied prospectively in experimental animals. We identified 13 published studies in which animals were given equivalent training at two or more separate times before damage to the fornix or hippocampal format...

introduction: the n-methyl-d-aspartate (nmda) receptors, which have been implicated in memory formation, could be noncompetitively blocked by ketamine. the present study examines the short term effect of ketamine on induction of anterograde and retrograde amnesia in male rats using morris water maze (mwm). methods: male n-mri rats were randomly divided into nine experimental groups. mwm studies...

Retrograde transport links early/recycling endosomes to the trans-Golgi network (TGN), thereby connecting the endocytic and the biosynthetic/secretory pathways. To determine how internalized molecules are targeted to the retrograde route, we have interfered with the function of clathrin and that of two proteins that interact with it, AP1 and epsinR. We found that the glycosphingolipid binding b...

Axonal retrograde transport is essential for neuronal growth and survival. However, the nature and dynamics of the membrane compartments involved in this process are poorly characterized. To shed light on this pathway, we established an experimental system for the visualization and the quantitative study of retrograde transport in living motor neurons based on a fluorescent fragment of tetanus ...
