The Arabidopsis TGA transcription factor (TF) PERIANTHIA (PAN) regulates the formation of the floral organ primordia as revealed by the pan mutant forming an abnormal pentamerous arrangement of the outer three floral whorls. The Arabidopsis TGA bZIP TF family comprises 10 members, of which PAN and TGA9/10 control flower developmental processes and TGA1/2/5/6 participate in stress-responses. For...

QUESTION Transient global amnesia (TGA) is characterised by the sudden occurrence of amnesia while lacking other neurological symptoms. Complete remission occurs within 24 hours. The pathogenesis remains unknown. The objective of this study was to evaluate the prevalence of TGA in a primary referral hospital in Uster, Switzerland and examine the accuracy of the diagnostic procedure and outcome....

Transient global amnesia (TGA) is a clinical syndrome characterized by the sudden onset of an extraordinarily large reduction of anterograde and a somewhat milder reduction of retrograde episodic long-term memory. Additionally, executive functions are described as diminished. Although it is suggested that various factors, such as migraine, focal ischemia, venous flow abnormalities, and epilepti...

The field experiment was carried out during 2004–2006. The aim of the study was to determine the influence of insecticides (Actara 25 WG – 0.08 kg/ha, Regent 200 SC – 0.1 L/ha, Calypso 480 SC – three rates: 0.05; 0.075; 0.1 L/ha), used for controlling Colorado potato beetle, on total glycoalkaloid (TGA) content in potato leaves and tubers of three cultivars (Mors, Wiking, Żagiel). The insectici...

Introduction Several thrombin-generation tests are available, but few have been directly compared. Our primary aim was to investigate the correlation of two thrombin generation tests, thrombin generation assay-calibrated automated thrombogram (TGA-CAT) and INNOVANCE ETP, to factor VIII levels (FVIII:C) in a group of patients with hemophilia A. The secondary aim was to investigate inter-laborato...

Corrected transposition of the great arteries is a rare condition, and few patients with this abnormality survive past 50 years of age because of associated congenital defects or the subsequent development of atrioventricular valvular insufficiency or heart block or both. We describe four men with uncomplicated C-TGA. Our patients are of interest for the following reasons: (a) their condition i...

PURPOSE Transient global amnesia (TGA) patients were retrospectively reviewed to determine the usefulness of high-field strength MRI in detecting probable ischemic lesions in TGA. MATERIALS AND METHODS We investigated the lesion detection rate in patients with TGA using 1.5T and 3.0T MRI. Acute probable ischemic lesions were defined as regions of high-signal intensity in diffusion weighted im...

Stroke is an extremely uncommon cause of transient global amnesia (TGA). Unilateral lesions of the fornix rarely cause amnesia and have not previously been reported to be associated with the distinctive amnesic picture of TGA. We describe the case of a 60-year-old woman who presented with acute onset, recent retrograde, and anterograde amnesia characteristic of TGA. Serial magnetic resonance im...
