Dialysate sodium and the milieu intérieur.
The life-sustaining technology of maintenance hemodialysis attempts to accomplish in a dozen or so hours a week what the kidneys labor to do 24 hours per day: maintain the optimal composition and volume of body fluids. Claude Bernard’s insight in the 1800s about the milieu intérieur (“all of the vital mechanisms, however varied they may be, have always one goal, to maintain the uniformity of th...
متن کاملHomeostasis, the milieu intérieur, and the wisdom of the nephron.
The concept of homeostasis has been inextricably linked to the function of the kidneys for more than a century when it was recognized that the kidneys had the ability to maintain the "internal milieu" and allow organisms the "physiologic freedom" to move into varying environments and take in varying diets and fluids. Early ingenious, albeit rudimentary, experiments unlocked a wealth of secrets ...
متن کاملReconstructing and Visualizing Models of Neuronal Dendrites
Neuroscientists have studied the relationship between nerve cell morphology and function for over a century. To pursue these studies, they need accurate threedimensional models of nerve cells that facilitate detailed anatomical measurement and the identification of internal structures. Although serial transmission electron microscopy has been a source of such models since the mid 1960s, model r...
متن کاملRethinking the excitotoxic ionic milieu: the emerging role of Zn(2+) in ischemic neuronal injury.
Zn(2+) plays an important role in diverse physiological processes, but when released in excess amounts it is potently neurotoxic. In vivo trans-synaptic movement and subsequent post-synaptic accumulation of intracellular Zn(2+) contributes to the neuronal injury observed in some forms of cerebral ischemia. Zn(2+) may enter neurons through NMDA channels, voltage-sensitive calcium channels, Ca(2+...
متن کاملReconstructing Stimulus Velocity from Neuronal Responses in Area MT
We employed a white-noise velocity signal to study the dynamics of the response of single neurons in the cortical area MT to visual motion. Responses were quantified using reverse correlation, optimal linear reconstruction filters, and reconstruction signal-to-noise ratio (SNR). The SNR and lower bound estimates of information rate were lower than we expected. Ninety percent of the information ...
