Introduction. Sarcopenia is a geriatric syndrome associated with impairment of muscle function, metabolism, and cognition in older women. Recent studies have shown a relationship between changes in muscle mass and the cardiovascular system. However, this relationship has not been...

Hepatol Res. 2017 Aug;47(9):941-952. doi: 10.1111/hepr.12823. Epub 2016 Oct 31.

Fetal hepatic stem/progenitor cells, called hepatoblasts, play central roles in liver organogenesis; however, molecular mechanisms regulating proliferation and terminal differentiation of such cells have not been completely elucidated. Bone morphogenetic protein-4 (BMP-4) is essential for the development of stem...

Severe iatrogenic bradycardia related to the combined use of beta-blocking agents and sodium channel blockers.

PMID: 25733934
Clin Pharmacol. 2015 Feb 16;7:29-36. doi: 10.2147/CPAA.S77021. eCollection 2015.

PURPOSE: Drug-induced bradycardia is common during antiarrhythmic therapy; the major culprits are beta-blockers. However, whether other antiarrhythmic drugs are also a significant cause of this, alone or in combination with beta-blockers, is not well known.METHODS: We retrospectively investigated the...

INTRODUCTION: Basaloid squamous cell carcinoma of the oesophagus (BSCCE) is a relatively rare variant of oesophageal malignancy. There are no established treatment strategies for pulmonary metastases of BSCCE.PRESENTATION OF CASE: A 72-year-old man underwent oesophagectomy and subsequently received a...

Distribution of vesicular glutamate transporters in the human brain.

Frontiers in neuroanatomy

Vigneault É, Poirel O, Riad M, Prud'homme J, Dumas S, Turecki G, Fasano C, Mechawar N, El Mestikawy S.

Front Neuroanat. 2015 Mar 05;9:23. doi: 10.3389/fnana.2015.00023. eCollection 2015.

Glutamate is the major excitatory transmitter in the brain. Vesicular glutamate transporters (VGLUT1-3) are responsible for uploading glutamate into synaptic vesicles. VGLUT1 and VGLUT2 are considered as specific markers of canonical glutamatergic neurons, while VGLUT3 is found in neurons...

Nonequilibrium molecular dynamics simulations of nanoconfined fluids at solid-liquid interfaces.

The Journal of chemical physics

Morciano M, Fasano M, Nold A, Braga C, Yatsyshin P, Sibley DN, Goddard BD, Chiavazzo E, Asinari P, Kalliadasis S.
PMID: 28668055
J Chem Phys. 2017 Jun 28;146(24):244507. doi: 10.1063/1.4986904.

We investigate the hydrodynamic properties of a Lennard-Jones fluid confined to a nanochannel using molecular dynamics simulations. For channels of different widths and hydrophilic-hydrophobic surface wetting properties, profiles of the fluid density, stress, and viscosity across the channel are...

REGULATION OF BIOSYNTHESIS OF DIMETHYLSULFONIOPROPIONATE AND ITS UPTAKE IN STERILE MUTANT OF ULVA PERTUSA (CHLOROPHYTA).

Journal of phycology

Ito T, Asano Y, Tanaka Y, Takabe T.
PMID: 27021980
J Phycol. 2011 Jun;47(3):517-523. doi: 10.1111/j.1529-8817.2011.00977.x. Epub 2011 Apr 11.

It has been shown that marine algae produce the compatible solute dimethylsulfoniopropionate (DMSP) from methionine (Met) via four enzymatic reactions in which the third step, synthesis of 4-dimethylsulfonio-2-hydroxy-butyrate (DMSHB) from 4-methylthio-2-hydroxybutyrate (MTHB), is the committing step. However, regulation of...

Thermal transport across nanoparticle-fluid interfaces: the interplay of interfacial curvature and nanoparticle-fluid interactions.

Phys Chem Chem Phys. 2017 Jan 25;19(4):3244-3253. doi: 10.1039/c6cp06403e.

We investigate the general dependence of the thermal transport across nanoparticle-fluid interfaces using molecular dynamics computations. We show that the thermal conductance depends strongly both on the wetting characteristics of the nanoparticle-fluid interface and on the nanoparticle size. Strong...
