    The Role of Deimination in Regenerative Reprogramming of Neurons

    Neurons from the adult central nervous system (CNS) demonstrate limited mRNA transport and localized protein synthesis versus develo** neurons, correlating with lower regenerative capacity. We found that dei...

    Signaling pathways leading to ischemic mitochondrial neuroprotection

    There is extensive evidence that ischemic/reperfusion mediated mitochondrial dysfunction is a major contributor to ischemic damage. However data also indicates that mild ischemic stress induces mitochondrial d...

    Neurovascular Mechanisms of Ischemia Tolerance Against Brain Injury

    Traumatic brain injury (TBI) can result in secondary ischemia. This secondary ischemic insult is implicated in post-TBI pathophysiology. Pharmacological intervention to elevate cerebral blood flow can improve ...

    Ischemic Preconditioning Alters the Epigenetic Profile of the Brain from Ischemic Intolerance to Ischemic Tolerance

    Ischemic preconditioning is an innate neuroprotective mechanism in which a sub-injurious ischemic exposure increases the brain’s ability to withstand a subsequent, normally injurious ischemic insult. Part of i...

    Anoxia Resistance in Lower and Higher Vertebrates

    The mammalian brain has a high obligatory rate of energy consumption which renders it extremely sensitive to even brief periods of oxygen deprivation. In contrast, the crucian carp (Carassius carassius) and some ...

    Differential Effects of Delta and Epsilon Protein Kinase C in Modulation of Postischemic Cerebral Blood Flow

    Cerebral ischemia causes cerebral blood flow (CBF) derangements resulting in neuronal damage by enhanced protein kinase C delta (δPKC) levels leading to hippocampal and cortical neuronal death after ischemia. ...

    Regulation of extracellular glutamate levels in the long-term anoxic turtle striatum: coordinated activity of glutamate transporters, adenosine, K ATP + channels and GABA

    Early in anoxia the mammalian brain experiences an uncontrolled release of glutamate, which combined with the failure of glutamate reuptake mechanisms, leads to massive neurotoxic increases in extracellular gl...

    Microprocessor-based multichannel analyzer system for NaI (Tl) detectors

    A microcomputer-based multichannel analyzer system for NaI(Tl) scintillation detectors has been developed. This system simultaneously collects spectral data from two NaI(Tl) detectors, integrates spectral regi...

    Physiological Patterns and Mental Disturbances

    THAT a diminution in the oxygen tension of the inspired air can produce mental changes is an established fact. Far less certain is the possible correlation between psychotic manifestations as seen in clinical ...
