Beta-adrenoceptor density and subtype distribution in cerebellum and hippocampus from patients with Alzheimer's disease
1993
beta-Adrenoceptor density and beta 1- and beta 2-subtype distribution were examined in hippocampi and cerebella from patients with Alzheimer's disease (AD/SDAT). Tissues from age-, sex and post-mortem delay matched non-demented patients served as controls. The total beta-adrenoceptor density as evaluated in saturation experiments with the hydrophilic radioligand [3H]CGP 12177 was higher in hippocampal (36-39 fmol/mg protein) than cerebellar tissues (20-21 fmol/mg), however, no differences were found in either brain region between AD/SDAT patients and controls. Subtype distribution using the highly selective beta 1-adrenoceptor antagonist CGP 20712A revealed a slightly higher proportion of b…
Pretreatment with potent P-glycoprotein ligands may increase intestinal secretion in rats.
2001
The expression of P-glycoprotein is induced in cell cultures upon exposure to various inducers. Therefore, the aim of the present study was to evaluate the in-vivo relevance of this observation, i.e. the influence of chronic pretreatments with selected drugs -- all of which are ligands to P-glycoprotein (P-gp) as demonstrated in radioligand binding studies and all of which have some or a considerable effect on P-gp expression in Caco-2 cells -- on the effective intestinal permeabilities of the model compound talinolol in rats employing in-situ single-pass intestinal perfusion of three different gut segments. Talinolol was selected, because it shows high selectivity for one of the exsorptive…
A Comparison of the Efficacy and Tolerability of Solifenacin Succinate and Extended Release Tolterodine at Treating Overactive Bladder Syndrome: Resu…
2005
Abstract Objective: To compare two new generation antimuscarinics at their recommended doses for treatment of overactive bladder syndrome (OAB). Methods: A prospective, double blind, double-dummy, two-arm, parallel-group, 12-week study was conducted to compare the efficacy and safety of solifenacin 5 or 10mg and tolterodine extended release (ER) 4mg once daily in OAB patients. After 4 weeks of treatment patients had the option to request a dose increase but were dummied throughout as approved product labelling only allowed an increase for those on solifenacin. Results: Solifenacin, with a flexible dosing regimen, showed greater efficacy to tolterodine in decreasing urgency episodes, inconti…
Short-term adaptation of conditioned fear responses through endocannabinoid signaling in the central amygdala
2010
International audience; Both, the cannabinoid receptor type 1 (CB1) and the central nucleus of the amygdala (CeA) are known to play crucial roles in the processing of fear and anxiety, whereby they appear to be especially involved in the control of fear states. However, in contrast to many other brain regions including the cortical subregions of the amygdala, the existence of CB1 in the CeA remains enigmatic. Here we show that CB1 is expressed in the CeA of mice and that CB1 in the CeA mediates short-term synaptic plasticity, namely depolarization-induced suppression of excitation (DSE) and inhibition (DSI). Moreover, the CB1 antagonist AM251 increased both excitatory and inhibitory postsyn…
VAPORIZATION CHARACTERISTICS OF ETHANOL AND 1-PROPANOL DROPLETS AT HIGH TEMPERATURES
2012
International audience; A detailed description of the vaporization of an isolated droplet has been carried out in this experimental study aimed at investigating ethanol and another aliphatic alcohol, 1-propanol. The characterization of the vaporization phenomenon is necessary for this liquid fuel to develop efficient design of injection systems for propulsion and power generation. Particularly, the vaporization rates and their dependency on temperature, important features for modeling and design, are explored for both ethanol and 1-propanol at intermediate to high temperatures. The experimental setup consists of a pressure chamber in which the furnace, the droplet formation, the droplet sup…

Heteropolyacids supported on boron nitride and carbon nitride for catalytic and catalytic photo-assisted alcohol dehydration
2021
Keggin H3PW12O40 (PW12) and Wells-Dawson H6P2W18O60 (P2W18) heteropolyacids (HPAs) are photo(catalysts) for various acid-promoted and redox catalytic reactions. Their activity increases if they are deposited on certain supports as metal oxides or carbon materials. Although the surface area and acid-base interactions of the HPAs with supports are considered as key factors for the performance of the binary material, the role of the local structure changes in the HPAs upon their immobilization on solids must be also of primary importance, directly affecting both acidity and photoredox properties. Here, the (photo)catalytic performance of Keggin and Wells-Dawson heteropolytungstates supported o…
A three-factor optimisation strategy for micellar liquid chromatography
2000
An interpretive optimisation methodology for micellar liquid chromatography (MLC) is shown, taking into account pH, surfactant (sodium dodecyl sulphate) and organic modifier (propanol) concentration. Two objectives are considered: to develop a highly practical straightforward three-factor optimisation for practical MLC, and, in order to avoid unecessary experiments, to link two and three-factor optimisations through a step-wise construction of the experimental design at different pH levels. The whole pH range for an ODS column (from 3 to 7) is covered. The proposed strategy was thoroughly evaluated using the chromatographic data from 81 experimental mobile phases, applied to the separation …
Experimental and Computational Studies of Hydrogen Bonding and Proton Transfer to [Cp*Fe(dppe)H]
2005
The present contribution reports experimental and computational investigations of the interaction between [Cp*Fe(dppe)H] and different proton donors (HA). The focus is on the structure of the proton transfer intermediates and on the potential energy surface of the proton transfer leading to the dihydrogen complex [Cp*Fe(dppe)(H2)]+. With p-nitrophenol (PNP) a UV/Visible study provides evidence of the formation of the ion-pair stabilized by a hydrogen bond between the nonclassical cation [Cp*Fe(dppe)(H2)]+ and the homoconjugated anion ([AHA]-). With trifluoroacetic acid (TFA), the hydrogen-bonded ion pair containing the simple conjugate base (A-) in equilibrium with the free ions is observed…
Volumetric properties of binary mixtures of ionic liquid 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium octylsulfate with water or propanol in the temperature range of …
2006
Abstract Densities of 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium octylsulfate ([bmim][OcOSO3]) solutions in water and 1-propanol have been measured with an oscillating-tube densimeter at temperatures from 278.15 K to 328.15 K. From these densities, apparent molar volumes Vϕ of [bmim][OcOSO3] in both solvents have been calculated, and its dependence on the molality has been treated with the Redlich and Meyer equation. Debye–Huckel limiting slopes for 1-propanol at working temperatures have been calculated, and apparent molar volumes of [bmim][OcOSO3] at infinite dilution V ϕ ∘ in both solvents have been evaluated. The partial molar volume at infinite dilution of [bmim][OcOSO3] in water is higher than in 1-…
