Critically ill pediatric patients, especially in the intensive care unit, receive multiple medications and have a higher risk of central venous catheter (CVC) occlusion. If an occlusion occurs immediately after the administration of multiple…
The purpose of this work is to present a perspective of the conditioned place preference (CPP) test by offering an overview of the empirical research from 1957-1991. The intent is not to extensively analyze the controversies inherent to any…
We have previously found that for acetaminophen kinetic differences exist between the hepatic microsomal catalyzed protein binding and cysteine conjugation. We have also observed that the protein binding of acetaminophen is only to intralumenal…
Developmental alterations in N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA)-stimulated [H-3]norepinephrine release from rat brain cortical and hippocampal slices were studied. NMDA (10-1000 muM) resulted in a concentration-dependent increase in [H-3]norepinephrine…
Ethanol-inducible cytochrome P450 2E1 (CYP2E1) has been shown to be involved in the metabolism of both ethanol and acetaldehyde, Acetaldehyde, produced from ethanol metabolism, is highly reactive and can form various protein adducts, In this study,…
We recently developed a sensitive method using biotin-N-maleimide (biotin-NM) as a probe to positively identify oxidized mitochondrial proteins. In this study, biotin-NM was used to identify oxidized cytosolic proteins in alcohol-fed mouse livers.…
