The conformation or quaternary structures of certain transporters, receptors, and enzymes probably are sensitive to changes in the structure of their lipid microenvironment, leading to changes in activity. Prostaglandin production is modulated by the availability of substrate fatty acids stored in the ...
electroencephalogram bispectral index (BIS); sufentanil 0.1–0.2 ug/kg was added each time to maintain the BIS value at 40–60; the intravenous infusion of cisatracurium benzenesulfonate was discontinued at half an hour before the end of the operation. The sevoflurane inhalation anesthesia was disco...
Thus, activation of TRPV1 by general anesthetics may be more important under conditions of inflammation due to a PKC-mediated phosphorylation of TRPV1 triggered by inflammatory mediators such as bradykinin and prostaglandins. The activation of TRPA1 and TRPV1 by propofol might be indicative for a...
Question: Which of the following agents is a general tone-increasing drug of plant origin? a) Meridil b) Eleuterococci's extract c) Pantocrin Plant derived drugs Drugs in pharmacology is a known substance which is used to treat and prevent...
G-proteins have a trimeric peptide structure in which one of the subunits, alpha, is distinct, and the other two, beta and gamma, are identical or highly homologous. One of these G-proteins (Gs) contains G-alpha-“stimulatory” (G-alpha-s) which is involved in the activation of ...
As used herein, the term “imaging moiety” generally refers to the functional portion of contrast agents that are useful for imaging a biological structure such as a specific organ or specific tissues. Image moieties includes moieties that generate images (e.g., radioactive isotopes) as well as...
These aggregates or oligomers are associated with cell inflammatory response and are thought to bind to a surface receptor on neurons and change the structure of the synapse, thereby disrupting neuronal communication. Due to the minute amount produced per day (22-27 ng/day) and accumulated for ...
