Modulation by Potassium Channel Blockade
The endothelium has the capacity to modulate vascular structure in response to hemodynamic stimuli. We tested the hypothesis that exposure of the endothelium to increased laminar shear stress induces the expression of TGFp1 via a signal transduction pathway modulated by K+ channel currents. Although TGFp1 is normally secreted in a latent, inactive form, exposure of cultured endothelial cells to...
متن کاملModeling auditory processing of amplitude modulation
In this thesis a new modeling approach is developed which is able to predict human performance in a variety of experimental conditions related to modulation detection and modulation masking. Envelope uctuations are analyzed with a modulation lterbank. The parameters of the lterbank were adjusted to allow the model to account for modulation detection and modulation masking data with narrowband c...
متن کاملModulation of hERG potassium channel gating normalizes action potential duration prolonged by dysfunctional KCNQ1 potassium channel.
Long QT syndrome (LQTS) is a genetic disease characterized by a prolonged QT interval in an electrocardiogram (ECG), leading to higher risk of sudden cardiac death. Among the 12 identified genes causal to heritable LQTS, ∼90% of affected individuals harbor mutations in either KCNQ1 or human ether-a-go-go related genes (hERG), which encode two repolarizing potassium currents known as I(Ks) and I...
متن کاملAuditory Lateralization Ability in Children with (Central) Auditory Processing Disorder
Objectives: The aim of the present study was to assess the auditory lateralization ability in children with (central) auditory processing disorder. Methods: Participants were divided in two groups: 15 children with Central Auditory Processing Disorder (8-10 years) and 80 normal children (8-11 years) from both genders with pure-tone air-conduction thresholds better than 20 dB HL bilaterally a...
متن کاملComparing auditory sustained attention in children with auditory processing disorder and normal children
Introduction: Auditory processing disorder (APD) is a type of abnormal perceptual processing of auditory information within the central auditory nervous system that could be influenced by cognitive factors, such as attention. Attention is one of most important cognitive functions in the development of learning in children, so it is important to recognize and evaluate a variety of attention defi...
