Permeability of the arachnoid and pia mater. The role of ion channels in the leptomeningeal physiology
(2012)
Purpose: The purpose of this paper is to study the ionic permeability of the leptomeninges related to the effect of ouabain (sodium-potassium-ATPase inhibitor) and amiloride (epithelial sodium channel (ENaC) inhibitor) on ...
Postmortem Image Analysis of Sheep Cortical Leptomeningeal Space and Vasculature: Theoretical Implications on Brain Surface Dialysis
(2011)
The vascular surface distribution of the subarachnoid space has not been studied extensively. The aim of our study was to develop a method of computer-assisted estimation of the distribution of the vascular network in the ...
Role of Histamine in Altering Fluid Recycling in Normal and Post-Traumatic Rabbit Peritoneum
(2014)
This study aims to investigate if histamine induces electrochemical alterations in the normal and post-traumatic peritoneum. Peritoneal rabbit specimens were obtained before surgery and 10 days post-operatively and were ...
IGF-1 alters the human parietal pleural electrochemical profile by inhibiting ion trans-cellular transportation after interaction with its receptor
(2013)
Objective: The effect of IGF-1 in the human pleural permeability and the underlying mechanisms involved were investigated. Design: Specimens from thoracic surgical patients were mounted in Ussing chambers. Solutions ...
Role of Electrolytes and Glucose in the Insulin-Induced Electrochemical Effect in Sheep Pleura
(2010)
Aim: Insulin induces electrochemical alterations in sheep visceral and parietal pleura, an effect abolished by the Na(+)-channel blocker amiloride and the Na(+)-K(+) pump inhibitor ouabain. The aim of this study was to ...
Insulin-Induced Electrophysiology Changes in Human Pleura Are Mediated via Its Receptor
(2010)
Background. Insulin directly changes the sheep pleural electrophysiology. The aim of this study was to investigate whether insulin induces similar effects in human pleura, to clarify insulin receptor's involvement, and to ...
Pleural electrophysiology alterations in spontaneous pneumothorax patients
(2010)
Physiology changes of the pleura in spontaneous pneumothorax (SP) patients are not known with its etiology remaining unclear. The aim of the study was to investigate the pleural electrophysiology profile of SP patients and ...
Nonsteroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drugs Alter the Human Mesothelial Pleural Permeability via Ion Cellular Transportation by Inhibiting Prostaglandin Synthesis
(2012)
Background: Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are used in clinical practice as analgesics or anti-inflammatory drugs. Studies have implicated them in participating in permeability throughout various tissues ...
Effect of histamine on the electrophysiology of the human parietal pleura
(2011)
Introduction: Histamine is involved in the pathogenesis of numerous diseases and regulates the permeability of different tissues. The aim of this study is to investigate the effects of histamine on the electrophysiology ...
Permeability Alterations after Surgical Trauma in Normal Rabbit Peritoneum
(2010)
Background: To investigate whether surgical trauma in a rabbit adhesion formation model and the administration of normal saline (N/S), icodextrin (ID) and/or dimetindene maleate (DM) changes the permeability of the normal ...
