Modelisation of fiber reinforced DEAs

The aim of this "Face Reconstruction" project is to enable people with paralysis in one half of their face to recover facial expressions. To do this, we’ll replace the paralyzed muscle with an DEA which we’ll connect to the nerve on the other side of the f ...

Catalytic Asymmetric Tandem Reaction of Tertiary Enamides: Expeditious Synthesis of Pyrrolo[2,1-a]isoquinoline Alkaloid Derivatives

Jieping Zhu

Reported is a new and efficient strategy for rapid construction of the chiral tetrahydropyrrolo[2,1-a]isoquinolin-3(2H)-one structure from unique tertiary enamide synthons. A Cu(OTf)2/chiral Pybox complex catalyzes the intramolecular enantioselective addit ...

Peripheral nerve regeneration following injury occurs spontaneously, but many of the processes require metabolic energy. The mechanism of energy supply to axons has not previously been determined. In the central nervous system, monocarboxylate transporter ...

Reversible sequential-binding probe receptor-ligand interactions in single cells

Horst Vogel, Rudolf Hovius, Jean-Manuel Segura, Marinela Gjoni Boillat, Christoph Schreiter

With the reversible sequential (ReSeq) binding assay, we present a novel approach for the ultrasensitive profiling of receptor function in single living cells. This assay is based on the repetitive application of fluorescent ligands that have fast assocn.- ...

Ganglion cells from chick retina display multiple functional nAChR subtypes

Mihai Adrian Ionescu, Philippe Renaud

We have examined the properties of nicotinic acetylcholine receptors in embryonic chick retinal ganglion cells. Ganglion cells, identified according to morphological and physiological criteria, displayed spontaneous or induced action potentials. In 94/99 c ...

The cellular mechanism by which acetylcholine (ACh) potentiates neuronal responses to N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) was investigated in CA1 neurones of hippocampal slices using current- and voltage-clamp techniques. 2. Loading cells with 5'-guanylylimidod ...

The effects of acetylcholine (ACh) on excitatory postsynaptic potentials (EPSPs) evoked by stimulating Schaffer-commissural afferents and on ionophoretically applied L-glutamate ligands, were investigated in CA1 neurones of hippocampal slices using curr ...

Presynaptic cholinergic action in the hippocampus

Henry Markram

The hippocampus is among the regions in the brain richest in M1 cholinergic receptors. Topical application of acetylcholine (ACh) onto hippocampal slices produces a characteristic complex response consisting of a depolarization, an increase in input resist ...
