Electrogravimetric Analysis by Quartz-Crystal Microbalance on the Consumption of the Neurotransmitter Acetylcholine by Acetylcholinesterase
(2012-12-01)
Electrogravimetric analysis was performed on the consumption of the neurotransmitter Acetylcholine (ACh) by Acetylcholinesterase (AChE) in situ and in real time. Michaelis-Menten assumption was achieved by using an enzyme ...
Neurotoxicity in zebrafish exposed to carbon nanotubes: Effects on neurotransmitters levels and antioxidant system
(Elsevier B.V., 2019-04-01)
Given the increasing use of carbon nanotubes (CNT) in several industries and technological applications, it is essential to perform in vivo toxicological studies with these nanomaterials to evaluate their potential ...
Capillary electrophoresis of neurotransmitters with amperometric detection at melanin-type polymer-modified carbon electrodes
(Elsevier Science, 2004-10)
This paper reports on the advantages of combining the separation capability of capillary electrophoresis using a novel home-made electrochemical cell adapted to commercially available capillary electrophoresis equipment ...
The lipid habitats of neurotransmitter receptors in brain
(Elsevier B.V., 2016)
Abstract: Neurotransmitter receptors, the macromolecules specialized in decoding the chemical signals encrypted in the chemical signalingmechanism in the nervous system, occur either at the somatic cell surface of chemically ...
Gaseous neurotransmitters and their role in anapyrexia
(2010-06-01)
Mammals keep their body temperature (Tb) relatively constant even under a wide range of ambient temperature variation. However, in some particular situations it may be beneficial to increase or to decrease Tb. For instance, ...
Effects of bilateral adrenalectomy on systemic kainate-induced activation of the nucleus of the solitary tract. Regulation of blood pressure and local neurotransmitters
(SPRINGER, 2008)
Glutamatergic transmission through metabotropic and ionotropic receptors, including kainate receptors, plays an important role in the nucleus of the solitary tract (NTS) functions. Glutamate system may interact with several ...
Unconventional neurotransmitters, neurodegeneration and neuroprotection
(Associação Brasileira de Divulgação Científica, 2009)
Neurotransmitters are also involved in functions other than conventional signal transfer between nerve cells, such as development, plasticity, neurodegeneration, and neuroprotection. For example, there is a considerable ...
Wnt signalling tunes neurotransmitter release by directly targeting Synaptotagmin-1
(Macmillan Publishers, 2015)
The functional assembly of the synaptic release machinery is well understood; however, how signalling factors modulate this process remains unknown. Recent studies suggest that Wnts play a role in presynaptic function. To ...
