Novel signaling pathway demonstrated, involved in the pathogenesis of pulmonary artery hypertension. Possibility for future therapeutic interventions of pulmonary artery hypertension.
Bar-headed geese are known for their exceptional feats of physical endurance. Their unique physiology is the focus of an international research team led by Prof. Peter Frappell (University of Tasmania).
A new approach to electrophysiological recordings in awake and free moving cats using combined video-tracking and wireless biopotential signals, including: LFP, MUA, EOG, EMG.
New study shows lower heart rate and blood pressure variability in pre-term babies, pointing to autonomic maturation deficits as a possible risk factor for SIDS.
This study demonstrates a reliable and novel protocol for obtaining SBP and HR from freely moving rats using the tail-cuff method, suitable for deducing both small and substantial changes in blood pressure.
Understanding the connection between brain circuits involved in smell and memory has practical importance, but only if the response patterns are understood. Cinnamon scrolls anyone?
The aim of this study was to test the performance of a novel shape-memory alloy surgical clip, designed to be delivered by injection though a fine gauge needle.
This study investigates cerebral blood flow regulation in professional boxers and finds that repetitive sub-concussive head impact may explain the progressive nature of associated brain injury.
Gandolini et al (2012) investigated whether changing running technique or wearing sports shoes might lower the forces exerted on feet and legs during foot-strike.
In biomedical research human diseases are commonly modeled in rodents such as mice. Their small size, however, poses technical challenges for physiological recordings. This study proposes a new method for recording RSNA in awake unrestrained mice.
