Communication between vascular smooth muscle cells (SMCs) allows control of their contraction and so regulation of blood flow. The contractile state of SMCs is controled by cytosolic Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]i) which propagates as Ca2+ waves over a signif ...
The hundredth anniversary of Robert Barany's Nobel Prize in Medicine offers the opportunity to highlight the importance of his discoveries on the physiology and pathophysiology of the vestibular organs. Barany developed the method of caloric vestibular sti ...
The extracellular potential of excitable and nonexcitable cells with respect to ground is ∼0 mV. One of the known exceptions in mammals is the cochlear duct, where the potential is ∼80-100 mV, called the endocochlear potential (EP). The EP serves as the "b ...
Aim: Treatment of sensorineural hearing loss could be advanced using novel drug carriers such as hyperbranched polylysine (HBPL) or lipid nanocapsules (LNCs). This study examined HBPL and LNCs for their cellular uptake and possible toxicity in vitro and in ...
We employed two independent approaches to inactivate the angiogenic protein VEGF in newborn mice: inducible, Cre-loxP- mediated gene targeting, or administration of mFlt(1-3)-IgG, a soluble VEGF receptor chimeric protein. Partial inhibition of VEGF achieve ...
Macros made their first appearance as a fork of the Scala compiler and then as an experimental feature in the version 2.10.0 of Scala. Since macros are normal Scala functions that are executed by the compiler during the compilation of their clients, they c ...
In pre-hearing mice, vesicle exocytosis at cochlear inner hair cell (IHC) ribbon synapses is triggered by spontaneous Ca2+ spikes. At the onset of hearing, IHC exocytosis is then exclusively driven by graded potentials, and is characterized by higher Ca2+ ...
Regenerative medicine aims to recreate functional tissues in vitro for the regeneration of damaged organs and solve the dramatic problem of transplant rejection. Cornea integrity is primordial for our vision. Several therapies to regenerate healthy corneal ...
An analytical calculation of the acoustic transmission loss of sound propagating through a thin cylindrically curved piezoelectric membrane, which is rigidly clamped at its straight ends, is presented. The membrane is placed inside an acoustic tube and con ...
We present an array of micro artificial muscles developed for investigation of cells response to mechanical strain. Few technologies can be used to realise this type of study. However, in most cases a compromise is required and one must choose between high ...
