Plasticity of Cultured Mesenchymal Stem Cells: Switch from Nestin‐Positive to Excitable Neuron‐Like Phenotype
Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) can differentiate into several types of mesenchymal cells, including osteocytes, chondrocytes, and adipocytes, but, under appropriate experimental… Expand

Local Injection of Endothelin-1 Produces Pain-Like Behavior and Excitation of Nociceptors in Rats
Neurobehavioral and neurophysiological actions of the peptide endothelin-1 (ET-1) were investigated after subcutaneous plantar hindpaw injections in adult male Sprague Dawley rats. Hindpaw flinching… Expand

The anti‐epileptic drug levetiracetam reverses the inhibition by negative allosteric modulators of neuronal GABA‐ and glycine‐gated currents
In this study in vitro and in vivo approaches were combined in order to investigate if the anti‐epileptic mechanism(s) of action of levetiracetam (LEV; Keppra®) may involve modulation of inhibitory… Expand

Behavioral signs of acute pain produced by application of endothelin‐1 to rat sciatic nerve
WE examined whether endothelin-1 (ET-1), a potent vasoconstrictive peptide secreted in high concentration by metastatic prostate cancer cells, produces endothelin receptor-dependent pain behavior… Expand

Glycine triggers an intracellular calcium influx in oligodendrocyte progenitor cells which is mediated by the activation of both the ionotropic glycine receptor and Na+‐dependent transporters
Using fluo‐3 calcium imaging, we demonstrate that glycine induces an increase in intracellular calcium concentration ([Ca2+]i) in cortical oligodendrocyte progenitor (OP) cells. This effect results… Expand

Substance P protects spiral ganglion neurons from apoptosis via PKC‐Ca2+‐MAPK/ERK pathways
In the current study, we have investigated the ability of substance P (SP) to protect 3‐day‐old (P3) rat spiral ganglion neurons (SGNs) from trophic factor deprivation (TFD)‐induced cell death. The… Expand

Recruitment of lung volume during surgery neither affects the postoperative spirometry nor the risk of hypoxaemia after laparoscopic gastric bypass in morbidly obese patients: a randomized controlled…
BACKGROUND Intraoperative recruitment manoeuvres (RMs) combined with PEEP reverse the decrease in functional residual capacity (FRC) associated with anaesthesia and improve intraoperative… Expand

Activation of protein kinase CβI constitutes a new neurotrophic pathway for deafferented spiral ganglion neurons
In mammals, degeneration of peripheral auditory neurons constitutes one of the main causes of sensorineural hearing loss. Unfortunately, to date, pharmacological interventions aimed at counteracting… Expand

Comparison of the surgical Pleth Index™ with haemodynamic variables to assess nociception-anti-nociception balance during general anaesthesia.
BACKGROUND The Surgical Pleth Index (SPI) is proposed as a means to assess the balance between noxious stimulation and the anti-nociceptive effects of anaesthesia. In this study, we compared SPI,… Expand

Intravenous lidocaine infusion reduces bispectral index-guided requirements of propofol only during surgical stimulation.
BACKGROUND I.V. lidocaine reduces volatile anaesthetics requirements during surgery. We hypothesized that lidocaine would also reduce propofol requirements during i.v. anaesthesia. METHODS A… Expand
