Previous studies suggest that prolonged electric activation of the baroreflex may reduce arterial pressure more than chronic blockade of alpha(1)- and beta(1,2)-adrenergic receptors. To determine whether central inhibition of sympathetic outflow has appreciable effects to chronically reduce arterial pressure by actions distinct from well-established mechanisms, we hypothesized that chronic baro...

Growing evidence supports the use of (2R-trans)-N-(2-(1,3,4,7,12b-hexahydro-2'-oxo-spiro(2H-benzofuro(2,3-a)quinolizine-2,4'-imidazolidin)-3'-yl)ethyl) methanesulfonamide (MK-467), a peripherally acting α(2)-adrenoceptor antagonist, in conjunction with the sedative-anesthetic agent dexmedetomidine in animals to avoid hemodynamic compromise. We evaluated the possible effects of different doses o...

In this paper we complete a classification of finite linear spaces S with line size at most 12 admitting a line-transitive point-imprimitive subgroup of automorphisms. The examples are the Desarguesian projective planes of orders 4, 7, 9 and 11, two designs on 91 points with line size 6, and 467 designs on 729 points with line size 8.

BACKGROUND The present study investigates the effects of high external calcium concentration ([Ca(2+)](o)) and the calcimimetic NPS R-467, a known calcium-sensing receptor (CaSR) agonist, on growth/proliferation of two equine size-sieved umbilical cord matrix mesenchymal stem cell (eUCM-MSC) lines. The involvement of CaSR on observed cell response was analyzed at both the mRNA and protein level...
