The duration of long-term potentiation (LTP) of the CA1 evoked field potential in rat hippocampal slices was significantly modulated by pre-treatment of slices with delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) added to the incubation media. The three THC doses…
To further clarify the role of 5-hydroxytryptamine (5HT) in the behavioral effects of tetrahydro-beta-carboline, male rats were trained to discriminate either 20 mg/kg THBC from its vehicle (n = 10) or 2.0 mg/kg fenfluramine from saline (n = 5). THBC…
Treatment planning for patients with dentofacial deformities should include a skeletal and a soft-tissue analysis. This article collates and summarizes several different soft-tissue analyses. In addition, it correlates the anticipated soft-tissue…
The nuclear bag1 intrafusal fiber mediates the dynamic (velocity) sensitivity, whereas the nuclear bag2 and nuclear chain fibers mediate the static (length) sensitivity of muscle spindles to stretch. The pattern of branching of primary and secondary…
