Abstract
We hypothesized that these may be putative targets for C. collinus action and we tested this by exposing rat renal brush border membrane (BBM) as well as cultured kidney cells to a boiled decoction of C. collinus. Exposure to the C. collinus decoction resulted in significant inhibition of vacuolar t...

Abstract
These results indicate that the short-term effects of acute ethanol on poly I:C-induced cytokine production are not primarily mediated by corticosterone in male or female mice. In female mice, however, corticosterone does appear to mediate the persistent effects of acute ethanol administration on po...

Abstract
I clinical signs correlate with repetitive firing in nerve axons, especially fine sensory axons. The Na(+) inward current is via a TTX-sensitive voltage-gated sodium channel (VGSC). Type II (α-CN) effects on VGSCs do not include repetitive firing following stimulation in these axons. Instead, Type...
