It has been established for more than 40 years that Cl- is not passively distributed in gastrointestinal smooth muscle (Aickin et al 1983, Barajas Lopez et al 1989, Casteels 1971, El-Sharkawy and Daniel 1975 p1278,) and that there is a complex relationship between the distribution and transport of Cl- and the distribution and transport of other ions including Na+, K+ and Ca2+, as well as responses to changes in pH and osmolarity. The full complement of Cl- ion transporters and Cl- selective…

transcription factors are always present in fully differentiated noradrenergic neurons in the brain. Furthermore, they are required for the maintenance of mature noradrenergic neurons in vivo and for the continued expression of DA β-hydroxylase (DBH) and tyrosine hydroxylase (TH) in…

Neurons are the cells specialized to receive, conduct, and transmit signal to the nervous system. The development of neurons starts early during the embryogenesis. After the fusion of sperm and egg, zygote is formed which is further divided to form blastula eventually leading to gastrula stage of development. Gastrulation begins as invagination of cells in the embryo leading to the formation of three germ layers. Formation of notochord from the mesodermal layer marks the beginning of neurulation…

Inquiry Statement Methamphetamine or METH is a highly addictive psychostimulant that has neurodegenerative effects on the human brain (Krasnova & Cadet 2009)(Krasnova and Cadet, 2009). METH abuse in Hawaii is one of the highest in the nation (http://the.honoluluadvertiser.com/article/2002/Oct/12/ln/ln02a.html).

1. A salivary gland is stimulated by its parasympathetic nerve. a) Describe the organization of the parasympathetic division of the autonomic nervous system The autonomic nervous system (ANS) is a part of the peripheral nervous system that largely acts involuntarily. It consists of nerves in cardiac muscle, smooth muscle, exocrine and endocrine glands. The main visceral activities are temperature regulation, digestion, blood pressure and genitourinary function. The second main division of the…

Myasthenia gravis is a chronic autoimmune disease that targets the neuromuscular junction resulting in impaired impulse transmission and skeletal muscle weakness. The muscular weakness may exacerbate during periods of activity while improving after periods of rest, occurring with various severities. Muscles that control the eyes, eyelids, facial expression, swallowing, and talking can also be affected. Symptoms are presented as drooping of the eyelids, called ptosis, blurred or double vision,…

sources of vitamin C are especially fruits and vegetables, particularly citrus fruits such as oranges. Vitamin C has significant relationships with other nutrients. It contributes to the metabolism of certain amino acids such as phenylalanine and tyrosine which become hormones. The vitamin C can have a significant role in the metabolism of calcium and iron. It also protects the thiamine, riboflavin, folic acid, pantothenic acid, vitamin A and E from oxidation. It protects the brain and spinal…

contract (Oxytocin 10). Its molecular formula is C43H66N12O12S2, it has a molar mass of 1007.187 g/mol (Oxytocin 7). It is also a type of peptide that is specified as a nonapeptide due to its nine amino acids; its amino acid sequence is cysteine-tyrosine-isoleucine-glutamine-asparagine-cysteine-proline-leucine-glycine or CYIQNCPLG (Oxytocin 9). It’s given the nickname of ‘love hormone’ because it is released during sexual intercourse, when a woman goes into labor and breast feeding (Oxytocin:…
