The DDT syndrome in rats consists of tremor, myoclonus, running seizures, hyperthermia, episodic boxing, and excessive grooming. DDT did not change whole-brain glycine levels when the rats had stimulus-sensitive myoclonus, spontaneous myoclonus, or seizures. However, regional analysis showed a
In previous research, intracerebroventricular (ICV) injection of serine (1-4 mg) caused dose-related hypothermia in rabbits and reduced rises in body temperature caused by leukocytic pyrogen (LP) and prostaglandin E2 (PGEs). Since serine is the major precursor of the putative neurotransmitter
The antagonism of the effect of reserpine on the thermoregulation in rats, the potentiation of the reserpine catalepsy with the simultaneous increase of the irritability of rats, the hyperthermia in mice, etc., obtained with some new glycine derivatives, are discussed in relation with recent data on
A 62-year-old woman with one-year history of type 1 diabetes mellitus was admitted to our hospital with progressive weakness in the lower extremities and urinary dysfunction following high fever. On admission, she had rigidity and myoclonus in the upper extremities with sensory ataxia. Cerebrospinal
Alanine, an amino acid that shares neural inhibitory effects with serine, glycine and taurine, like these three amino acids also lowers body temperature when given centrally. In the present experiments the effects of alanine on central temperature controls were examined in more detail to determine
Dengue virus infection causes life-threatening hemorrhagic fever. Increasing evidence implies that dengue viral nonstructural protein 1 (NS1) exhibits a tendency to elicit potentially hazardous autoantibodies, which show a wide spectrum of specificity against extracellular matrix and platelet
The purpose of this study was to develop a specific targeting magnetic nanoparticle probe for magnetic resonance imaging and therapy in the form of local hyperthermia. Carboxymethyl dextran-coated ultrasmall superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles with carboxyl groups were coupled to cyclic
Role of excitatory amino acids, glutamate, aspartate, and inhibitory amino acids, gamma aminobutyric acid (GABA) and glycine in brain damage caused by heat stress was examined in a rat model. Subjection of rats to 4 h heat stress at 38 degrees C in a biological oxygen demand (BOD) incubator resulted
Persistent infection of mouse neuroblastoma NB41A3 cells with yellow fever 17D virus generates viral variants which exhibit defective cell penetration, poor cell-to-cell spread, small plaque size and reduced growth efficiency, caused by substitution of glycine for aspartic acid or glutamic acid at
To improve the selectivity of magnetic nanoparticles for tumor treatment by hyperthermia, Fe3O4 nanoparticles have been functionalized with a peptide of the type arginine-glycine-aspartate (RGD) following a "click" chemistry approach. The RGD peptide was linked onto the previously coated
BACKGROUND
Accumulating evidence suggests that drugs acting on the glutamatergic system may represent promising novel therapeutic targets for the treatment of anxiety disorders. The stress-induced hyperthermia paradigm has been used widely to model some of the physiological symptoms associated with
Severe fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome virus (SFTSV) is a novel phlebovirus responsible for causing an emerging zoonotic disease. We previously established subclones from SFTSV strain YG1 based on differences in low-pH-dependent cell fusion activities and found two amino acid substitutions,
Prominent tumor-cell nucleus targeting of radiosensitizer substantially affects the therapeutic consequence of advanced tumor radiotherapy via lethal nucleus DNA damage. Herein, ultrasmall iridium nanocrystals (Ir NCs, <5 nm) are constructed for efficient tumor-specific photonic
Our previous findings [Hazelton & Lang (1978) Fed. Proc. Fed. Am. Soc. Exp. Biol. 37(6), 2378 (abstr.)] demonstrated a senescence-specific decrease in glutathione (GSH) concentration in the yellow-fever mosquito Aedes aegypti (Louisville)]. As a possible mechanism for this change, GSH biosynthesis
Small interfering RNA (siRNA) offers a new and potential therapeutic strategy for tackling many diseases at the molecular level. Recently, cell-penetrating peptides (CPPs) conjugated with siRNA via disulfide-bonds (designated as siRNA-CPPs) were reported to form glutathione-sensitive carriers.
