The endothelins (ET-1, 2 and 3) constitute a family of 21 amino acid peptides with potent biological activities.ET-1 is one of the most potent endogenous vasoconstrictors so far identified and its increased concentration in plasma appears to be closely related to the pathogenesis of arterial hypertension as well as to obstructive sleep apnea (OSA).
Design and Simulation of Magnetic Conductors to Enhance Features of Satellite Antennas and to Reduce Effects of Space Radiation
To improve the performance of satellite antennas, use of a high-impedance surface is purposed.High impedance surfaces are known as artificial magnetic conductors.The designed magnetic conductor includes an array of Prostate a Jerusalem Cross frequency selective surface which is connected to the ground via four pins.All conducting parts are made of
A portable transistor immunosensor for fast identification of porcine epidemic diarrhea virus
Abstract Widespread distribution of porcine epidemic diarrhea virus (PEDV) has led to catastrophic losses to the global pig farming industry.As a result, there is an urgent need for rapid, sensitive and Pulley Wheel accurate tests for PEDV to enable timely and effective interventions.In the present study, we develop and validate a floating gate car
Activation of exchange protein activated by cAMP in the rat basolateral amygdala impairs reconsolidation of a memory associated with self-administered copyright.
The intracellular mechanisms underlying memory reconsolidation critically involve cAMP signaling.These events were originally attributed to PKA activation by cAMP, but the identification of Exchange Protein Activated Hair Set by cAMP (Epac), as a distinct mediator of cAMP signaling, suggests that cAMP-regulated processes that subserve memory recons
