adenosine acts as neuromodulator in the brain, which its involvement in a wide range of brain processes and diseases has been studied, such as epilepsy, sleep, anxiety, panic disorder, alzheimer’s disease, parkinson’s disease and schizophrenia. adenosine receptors have been detected: a1r, a2ar (a2ar), a2br, and a3r. a1r and a2r inhibit camp production, while a2ar and a2br stimulate camp product...

the objective of this study was to observe the apoptosis-inducing effect and mechanism of baicalin on human cervical cancer hela cells. the inhibitory effect of baicalin on the growth of hela cells was measured by mtt assay, and cell proliferation and migration was analyzed by cell scratch assay. morphological changes of apoptotic cells were viewed by the light microscope and electron microscop...

INTRODUCTION Several studies have shown that the fast pathway is more responsive to adenosine than the slow pathway in patients with AV nodal reentrant tachycardia. Little information is available regarding the effect of adenosine on anterograde and retrograde fast pathway conduction. METHODS AND RESULTS The effects of adenosine on anterograde and retrograde fast pathway conduction were evalu...

As you can see below, your analysis received a mixed response. While they referees appreciate that the analysis extend previous work they also raise a number of issues regarding the conclusiveness of the findings reported. Some of these I recognize that you might be able to address. However besides these concerns, referee #3 also finds the advance provided too limited for publication here. S/he...

Electrophysiological studies were performed in two patients with documented paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia and dual atrioventricular (AV) nodal pathways as defined by the atrial extra-stimulus technique. Both patients manifested two ranges of A-H intervals (AV nodal conduction times) at critical cycle lengths, reflecting fastand slow-pathway conduction. The occurrence of fastand slow-p...

UNLABELLED Faspad is a user-friendly tool that detects candidates for linear signaling pathways in protein interaction networks based on an approach by Scott et al. (Journal of Computational Biology, 2006). Using recent algorithmic insights, it can solve the underlying NP-hard problem quite fast: for protein networks of typical size (several thousand nodes), pathway candidates of length up to 1...
