A groundbreaking study from the University of Auckland and Chalmers University of Technology is offering new hope for spinal ...

Background —Increased plasma adrenomedullin (ADM) levels have been reported in congestive heart failure (HF). The present study was designed to investigate myocardial regulation of the different ...

Epidural spinal cord stimulation (ESCS) is a potential treatment for the recovery of the motor function in spinal cord injury (SCI) patients. Since the mechanism of ESCS remains unclear, it is ...

This work presents a setup for chronic monitoring of spontaneous epileptic seizures in rats under kainic acid. The system allows to record the vagus nerve electroneurogram at 40 kS/s and the ...

There were 65 random rats, split up into 13 groups, and five animals in each group received 0.5 ml of each concentration of Al₂O₃-NPs (70 and 140 mg kg -1). once daily via a gastric tube for two ...

In the rat, mouse, dog, and human heart, connexin40 is abundant in the atrioventricular conduction system, ie, the His bundle, bundle branches, and Purkinje fibers, where it is implicated in ...

This study demonstrates a microfluidic chip-based online electrochemical detecting system for in vivo continuous and simultaneous monitoring of ascorbate and Mg2+ in rat brain. In this system, a ...

An untargeted, data-independent acquisition high-resolution accurate tandem mass spectrometry method using an Orbitrap mass spectrometer was employed to screen for DNA adducts formed from 11 ...

The agency is cutting animal testing of chemicals. Some scientists are concerned, but in the meantime the rats (and zebra ...

We expel carbon dioxide as waste. Naked mole rats bathe their brains in it to prevent seizures. The unique animals thrive ...

Sexual behavior and sex preference in animals and humans are shaped by complex interactions between the brain and hormones during early development. One critical factor is exposure to androgens (male ...

An ultrathin implant that delivers stimulation directly to the spinal cord significantly improved motion and sensation in injured rats ...
