Local circuit and long-range GABAergic projections provide powerful inhibitory control over the operation of hippocampal inhibitory circuits, yet little is known about the input- and target-specific organization of interacting inhibitory networks in relation to their specific functions. Using a combination of two-photon laser scanning photostimulation and whole-cell patch clamp recordings in mi...

Neuronal networks consist of different types of neurons that all play their own role in order to maintain proper network function. The two main types of neurons segregate in excitatory and inhibitory neurons, which together regulate the flow of information through the network. It has been proposed that changes in the relative strength in these two opposing forces underlie the symptoms observed ...

a new group of 4-(imidazolylmethyl) quinoline derivatives possessing a methylsulfonyl cox-2 pharmacophore at the para position of the c-2 phenyl ring were designed and synthesized as selective cox-2 inhibitors and in-vitro anti breast cancer agents. in-vitro cox-1 and cox-2 inhibition studies showed that all the compounds were potent and selective inhibitors of the cox-2 isozyme with ic50 value...
