It has been well-established that the age-related loss of muscle mass and strength, or
sarcopenia, impairs skeletal muscle function and reduces functional performance at a more …

Abstract CONTINUOUS OXYGEN DELIVERY and CO 2 clearance are paramount in the
maintenance of normal brain function and tissue integrity. Under normal conditions, aerobic …

Nitric oxide (NO) is a unique informational molecule involved in a variety of physiological
processes in the central nervous system (CNS). It has been demonstrated that it can exert …

Nitric oxide produced by the neuronal or inducible isoform of nitric oxide synthase (nNOS,
iNOS) is detrimental in acute ischemic stroke (IS), whereas that derived from the endothelial …

Object Dysregulation of water homeostasis induces cerebral edema. Edema is a major
cause of morbidity and mortality following traumatic brain injury (TBI). Aquaporin-1 (AQP-1) …

The stoichiometries and the affinity toward simple and paired metal ions of synthetic amyloid-
β (1-40) peptide (Aβ1-40) were investigated by electrospray ion trap mass spectrometry (ESI …

As nitric oxide (NO) is postulated to be a mediator of the effects of pre-slaughter stress on
meat quality the aims of this experiment were to investigate the effects of modulating NO …

The extremely short biological half-life of endothelial-derived nitric oxide (NO) has impeded
real-time measurements of NO synthesis. We used the membrane-permeable fluorescent …

Background The development of secondary brain injury via oxidative stress after traumatic
brain injury (TBI) is a well-known entity. Consequently, the aim of the present study was to …

purpose. Because prostaglandins (PGs) are implicated in acute hypercapnia-induced
hyperemia, this study was conducted to test the hypothesis that prolonged hypercapnia may …
