A wire transposition technique for recanalization of chronic complex central venous occlusions.
A minimal-invasive interventional technique for recanalization of complex chronic central venous total occlusions is described to overcome difficulties in case of failure of common approaches. We present a patient with a central venous occlusion that caused severe venous congestion of her upper extremity and significan...

Stimulation of oxidative phosphorylation by calcium in cardiac mitochondria is not influenced by cAMP and PKA activity.
Cardiac oxidative ATP generation is finely tuned to match several-fold increases in energy demand. Calcium has been proposed to play a role in the activation of ATP production via PKA phosphorylation in response to intramitochondrial cAMP generation. We evaluated the effect of cAMP, its membrane permeable analogs (dibu...

Why wait? The effect of wait-times on subsequent help-seeking among families looking for children's mental health services.
Placement on a wait-list may increase families' help-seeking efforts, leading them to contact more than one children's mental health (MH) agency/professional. Two issues were examined in the current study: 1) Does time on a wait-list for families impact the time to contact a new agency for children's MH services? 2) Wh...

Do portrayals of women in action convey another ideal that women with little self-determination feel obligated to live up to? Viewing effects on body image evaluations and eating behaviors.

We tested this proposition by investigating women's responses to contrasting portrayals of the female body as a...

Clinical observations in alopecia areata: Implications and hypotheses.
Alopecia areata (AA) is a T-cell-mediated hair loss disorder but the exact cause is unknown. In this report we describe patterns of onset, regrowth and relapse in AA and propose potential underlying mechanisms. We believe that these aspects of AA require integration into modern theories of AA pathogenesis.

Cofilin recruits F-actin to SPCA1 and promotes Ca2+-mediated secretory cargo sorting.
The actin filament severing protein cofilin-1 (CFL-1) is required for actin and P-type ATPase secretory pathway calcium ATPase (SPCA)-dependent sorting of secretory proteins at the trans-Golgi network (TGN). How these proteins interact and activate the pump to facilitate cargo sorting, however, is not known. We used pu...

Motoneuron development influences dorsal root ganglia survival and Schwann cell development in a vertebrate model of spinal muscular atrophy.
Low levels of the survival motor neuron protein (SMN) cause the disease spinal muscular atrophy. A primary characteristic of this disease is motoneuron dysfunction and paralysis. Understanding why motoneurons are affected by low levels of SMN will lend insight into this disease and to motoneuron biology in general. Mot...

A DAQ-device-based continuous wave near-infrared spectroscopy system for measuring human functional brain activity.
In the last two decades, functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) is getting more and more popular as a neuroimaging technique. The fNIRS instrument can be used to measure local hemodynamic response, which indirectly reflects the functional neural activities in human brain. In this study, an easily implemented way...

Detecting ALK, ROS1 and RET Fusion Genes in Cell Block Samples.
Whether Cell block (CB) samples are applicable to detect anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK), c-ros oncogene 1 (ROS1) and ret proto-oncogene (RET) fusion genes in lung adenocarcinoma is still unknown. In this study, 108 cytological samples that contained lung adenocarcinoma cells were collected, and made into CB. The CB s...

Examining Cultural Correlates of Active Coping Among African American Female Trauma Survivors.
African American women are at a greater risk for exposure to multiple traumatic events and are less likely to seek mental health services than White women. Many women report avoidant and passive coping strategies placing them at an increased risk for lower psychological adjustment. Thus, the purpose of the current stud...

Functional characterization of AT-1001, an α3β4 nicotinic acetylcholine receptor ligand, at human α3β4 and α4β2 nAChR.
Genome-wide association studies linking the α3, β4, and α5 nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (nAChR) subunits to nicotine dependence suggest that α3β4* nAChR may be targets for smoking cessation pharmacotherapies. We previously reported that AT-1001, a selective α3β4* nAChR ligand binds with high affinity to rat α3β4 an...
