Magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) allows measurement of neurotransmitter concentrations within a region of interest in the brain. Inter-individual variation in MRS-measured GABA levels have been related to variation in task performance in a number of r ...
A simple three-step procedure converted the readily accessible (2-bromo-1,1-difluoroethyl)arenes into a-aryl-a,a-difluoroacetaldehydes. Subsequent hydrocyanation, hydrolysis, oxidn. and again hydrolysis afforded b-aryl-b,b-difluoro-a-oxopropionic acids. Re ...
center dot Antiretroviral protease inhibitors such as lopinavir and saquinavir have been shown to be substrates of ABCB1. Co-administration with the potent ABCB1 and CYP3A4 inhibitor, ritonavir, has shown improved pharmacokinetics and subsequent therapeuti ...
New pyrrolidine-3,4-diol derivatives were prepared from D-(-)- and L(+)-phenylglycinol and tested for their ability to inhibit 25 commercial glycosidases. The influence of the substitution of the lateral side chain and of the pyrrolidine ring on the enzyme ...
New substituted pyrrolidine-3,4-diol derivatives were prepared from D-(-)- and L-(+)-phenyl glycinol. The influence of the configuration and the substitution of the lateral side chain of these derivatives on the inhibition of 25 commercial glycosidases wer ...
Heautoscopy, i.e., the encounter with one's double, is a multimodal illusory reduplication of one's own body and self. In its polyopic form, more than one double is experienced. In the present article, we review fourteen published cases of polyopic heautos ...
Huntington's disease (HD), an inherited neurodegenerative disorder, results from an abnormal polyglutamine extension in the N-terminal region of the huntingtin protein. This mutation leads to protein aggregation and neurotoxicity. Despite its widespread ex ...
New 2-(aminomethyl)-5-(hydroxymethyl)pyrrolidine-3,4-diol derivatives were synthesized from (5S)-5-[(trityloxy)methyl]pyrrolidin-2-one (6) (Schemes 1 and 2) and their inhibitory activities toward 25 glycosidases assayed (Table). The influence of the config ...
Glutamate-evoked Na+ increase in astrocytes has been identified as a signal coupling synaptic activity to glucose consumption. Astrocytes participate in multicellular signaling by transmitting intercellular Ca2+ waves. Here we show that intercellular Na+ w ...
Preselected cyanobacterial strains (available from culture collections and our own isolates), belonging primarily to the heterocystous cluster, were screened for inhibitors against butyrylcholinesterase. About one-half of the extracts exhibited inhibitory ...
