Whereas induction of the 70-kDa heat shock protein (HSP70) in the nucleus tractus solitarii (NTS), the terminal site in the brain stem for primary baroreceptor afferents, augments baroreceptor reflex (BRR) response, the underlying cellular and molecular mechanism is essentially unexplored. In Sprague-Dawley rats, we evaluated the hypothesis that HSP70 may potentiate BRR response by up-regulatin...

Despite few data to guide practice, no well-stated clinical guidelines, and the lack of approval by the US Federal Drug Administration for the practice, nearly 1 of every 5 physicians surveyed here used ceftriaxone for the treatment of early-stage syphilis. The physicians queried were by definition specialists in infectious diseases; therefore, this response may overestimate national practice. ...

INTRODUCTION The relationship between peripheral tissue characteristics and pain symptoms in soft tissue inflammation is poorly understood. The primary aim of this study was to determine immunohistochemical differences in tissue obtained from patients with persistent pain and patients who had become pain-free after surgical treatment for rotator cuff tendinopathy. The secondary aim was to inves...

Previous studies showed that recombinant homomeric GluR6 receptors are acutely inhibited by ethanol. This study examined the acute actions of ethanol on recombinant homomeric and heteromeric kainate (KA) receptors with different subunit configurations. Application of 25 to 100 mM ethanol produced inhibition of a similar magnitude of both GluR5-Q and GluR6-R KA receptor-dependent currents in Xen...

Inequality (1.2) is classical and very well known. It has been the object of extensions and variants which can be found in a number of papers and monographs, including [AFLT], [Bae], [BBMP], [BH], [Bro], [BZ], [CP], [E], [H], [Ka2], [Kl], [Ma], [Sp1], [Sp2], [Spi], [Ta1], [Ta5], and [Ta6]. Even if not as popular as (1.2), inequality (1.1) has also been known for a long time, and versions of it ...

BACKGROUND This study was designed to examine the expression of atrial/fetal-type myosin light chain 1 (ALC1) in human ventricles with old myocardial infarction and in control hearts. METHODS AND RESULTS The expression of immunoreactive (ir) ALC1 was examined in the subendocardial and subepicardial myocardium of the infarcted and the noninfarcted regions in the left ventricles with old myocar...
