these experiments examined the effects of pre-test intra dorsal hippocampus (intra-ca1) administration of gabaa receptor agonist and antagonist, muscimol and bicuculline respectively, on state-dependent learning induced by lithium. male nmri mice were trained in a one-trial step-down inhibitory avoidance task, and immediately after training they received ip injections of either saline (10 ml/kg...

the purpose of the work presented here was to investigate endotheliumdependent relaxations in the rabbit coronary ligation model of heart failure. we investigated endothelium-dependent relaxations at the level of larger vessels (thoracic aorta and vena cava left renal artery and left renal vein lateral saphenous artery and lateral saphenous vein and finally central ear artery and marginal ear v...

in this paper, for the first time we have studied theoretically the effect of exchange-correlation holes around electrons in gaalas/gaas/gaalas nanostructure on the temperature-dependent dynamic dielectric function of two-dimensional electron gas by employing random phase, stls and hubbard approximations. also, we have investigated another interesting system which is coupled quantum wells struc...

a water distribution network is subjected to various abnormal conditions such as pipe breaks, pump failures, excessive demands etc. in the design period. under such conditions, the network may not be able to meet required demands at desired pressures, and becomes deficient. traditional network analysis assumes nodal demands to be satisfied and available nodal pressures are calculated. however, ...

77irty six patients with non insulin dependent diabetes mellitus, whose blood sugar was not controlled with maximal doses of oral hypoglycemic agents and did not accept insulin treatment, were selected for this study. the patients were randomly divided into two groups, the treatment group and the control group. the treatment group received oral hypoglycemic agent and chloroquine (150 mg twice d...

introduction: developmental changes in atrioventricular nodal conduction time and refractoriness have been shown in several studies. prevalence of atrioventricular nodal reentrant tachycardia (avnrt) is clearly age-dependent. the purpose of this study was to determine developmental changes of basic and frequency-dependent electrophysiological properties of the atrioventricular node (av-node) in...

selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (ssris) are reported to be associated with increased bleeding tendency. while findings of recent studies explain a lot about the pathophysiology of this side-effect, there is a general tendency to discontinue ssris as harmful medications. we report two instances of dose-dependent relations between sertraline and bleeding tendency. bleeding diathesis was a...

the methylotrophic thermo tolerant actinomycete strain 381, was isolated from a compost sample, assimilated methanol during growth. methanol dehydrogenase could not be detected in cell extracts using dye-linked assays in the absence of nad+. dichlorophenol-indophenol-linked methanol oxidation was detected in broken cell suspensions in the presence of nad+ and the absence of cyanide. taxonomic s...
