Two intrinsic dynamical instabilities of V(m) are present in hair cells. One of these is observed as spontaneous voltage fluctuations by currents through K(IR), K(V) and h-channels in combination with a steady current through MET channels. The other instability shows as regenerative voltage changes involving Ca2+ and K(V) channels. The BK(Ca) chann...

This article reviews studies on lymph propulsion in the lymph vessels by active contraction of the vessels, first described by Arnold Heller in 1869 in German language, and here translated into English. His observations were first confirmed by Beatrice Carrier (1926) and Howard Flory et al. (1927), and several groups were active up to World war II....

In response to slow saline loading simulating daily sodium intake, the rate of sodium excretion may increase 10-20-fold without any change in mean arterial blood pressure or in RBF. Regulatory responses to changes in total body NaCl levels appears, therefore, to be mediated primarily by neurohumoral mechanisms and may occur independent of changes i...

These results suggest that an intact innervation, even in the absence of muscle activation and/or loading, is critical for Hsp25 phosphorylation in the insoluble fraction. However, the time-dependent decrease in Hsp25 with SI suggests a role for minimal levels of muscle activation and/or loading in maintaining Hsp25 expression during sustained inac...

The maximal inspiratory pressure-flow capacity can be enhanced with SSC manoeuvres in a manner analogous to increases in the force-velocity relationship with SSC reported for skeletal muscles.

Mitochondrial efficiency, as determined in vitro, was not significantly different in the two fibre types neither at V(max) nor at submaximal rates of respiration. The low V(max) for PC oxidation in EDL may relate to low activity of beta-oxidation.

The present data show that both tryptophan and BCAA are taken up by the brain during prolonged exercise, and we suggest that the cerebral uptake of tryptophan may relate to increased synthesis of serotonin (5-HT) in the brain.

These observations suggest a heretofore unreported muscle fibre-type-specific response of oxidative stress and NOS isoforms to CHF is of importance in understanding the cellular mechanisms of skeletal muscle dysfunction in CHF.

When the conditions favour a net leak of calcium in diastole from intracellular stores via the calcium-extrusive mode of sodium-calcium exchanger (NCX), FFR is positive. An increase in frequency lessens the diastolic interval and therefore the diastolic calcium leak, thereby augmenting force. On the other hand, interventions which favour the calciu...
