The primary objective was to compare the evoked K-complex response to salient versus non-salient auditory stimuli in combat-exposed Vietnam veterans with and without post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).

14C-Acanthoic acid was prepared in four steps by a degradation/reconstitution strategy.

Herein, we report the lead optimization of 4(1H)-quinolones with a focus on improving both antimalarial potency and bioavailability.

We present a systematic structural optimization of uncharged but ionizable N-substituted 2-hydroxyiminoacetamido alkylamine reactivators of phosphylated human acetylcholinesterase (hAChE) intended to catalyze the hydrolysis of organophosphate (OP)-inhibited hAChE in the CNS.

The present study seeks to resolve some of these issues in a combined cross-sectional and longitudinal analysis of sleep EEG in adolescents.

Here we demonstrate biological activity for two peptides present within proNPQ/spexin. NPQ/spexin and NPQ 53–70 have differing renal and cardiovascular effects when administered intracerebroventricularly or intravenously into rats.

The introduction of forward genetics has provided novel means to gain a better understanding of gene functions and their associated phenotypes in Plasmodium.

On the basis of hemopressin’s potential in therapeutic applications and the lack of a structure–activity relationship study in literature, we aimed to determine the conformational features of hemopressin under physiological…

We use recently-developed Quantitative Susceptibility Mapping (QSM) methodology to estimate the tissue magnetic susceptibility based on MRI signal phase.

The present study tested the hypothesis that the amplitude of K-complex related evoked potential components would increase with prolonged abstinence from alcohol.

Factors that contribute to the formation of SP turns include controlling backbone flexibility and amino acid chirality along with creating a hydrophobic environment around the intramolecular hydrogen bonds.

The purpose of this study was to assess whether cytochrome P450 enzyme 2A6 (CYP2A6) genotypes moderate the association between smoking and hypertension.
