Thread: CAers in London?

CAers in London?
I didn't put this in the regional thread since it's not exactly regional, but.
I'm working on a level that takes place around Westminster abbey and the parliament buildings, and need some reference photos. I've got lots from the internet, but they're not exactly organized and don't necessarily cover everything I want, so...
Just wondering if any of you have pictures you'd be willing to let me use? Or, if anyone knows sites where there are already royalty-free reference photos...? It's for a school project, so I'm not going to make any profit off it, either, so...
Anyway, Elwell, if this is in the wrong place, please go ahead and move it. Not really sure where it would go...Character of the Week: It's Good Medicine!

I need to take some photos for a photographymob photo challenge and I'm thinking about popping over there. While I'm at it I might as well just take countless reference photos.
I have some in my photothread (in my sig), but not many and none that great; but if there is one you like and want specific info on then please ask.
One problem with taking reference photos, however, is that if I spend too long lingering around Houses of Parliament with a camera I might get stopped (... again), and if there's one thing I fear above all else it's the sound of a rubber glove being neatly snapped onto a human hand...
EDIT: I appear not to have uploaded [m]any of the Westminster photos, so I suppose it really is time for me to go back there and get some decent ones. I'll repost in this thread when I have new ones.

Well, most of the level is in Westminster, so you don't need to get in too much trouble by taking pics of parliment. There's plenty of photos online for me to get a fairly accurate exterior model of it, and for now I don't really need the interior.
Mostly it's the Westminster Interior that I'm having difficulty finding reference for, and details like the gargoyles and stained glass and stuff.

Article: Preventative effects of 1,3-dimethyl- and 1,3-dimethyl-N-propargyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinoline on MPTP-induced Parkinson's disease-like symptoms in mice[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: 1-Methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine (MPTP) is well known as an exogenous dopaminergic neurotoxin that induces Parkinson's disease-like symptoms. In addition, 1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinoline (TIQ) derivatives have been investigated as endogenous MPTP mimetic compounds that structurally resemble selegiline, a commercially available drug for treating Parkinson's disease. In the present study, we examined the ability of 1,3-dimethyl-TIQ (1,3-diMeTIQ) and 1,3-dimethyl-N-propargyl-TIQ (1,3-diMe-N-proTIQ) to prevent MPTP-induced Parkinson's disease-like symptoms in mice and to prevent 1-methyl-4-phenylpyridinium ion (MPP+, an active metabolite of MPTP)-induced cytotoxicity in vitro, including its structural stereoselectivity. Repeated administration of MPTP induced bradykinesia, a symptom of behavioral abnormality; this was prevented by both 1,3-diMeTIQ and 1,3-diMe-N-proTIQ pretreatments. Pretreatment with 1,3-diMeTIQ did not prevent the MPTP-induced decrease in dopamine content in the striatum or the decrease in the number of tyrosine hydroxylase-positive cells in the substantia nigra. On the other hand, 1,3-diMe-N-proTIQ prevented these Parkinson's disease-like symptoms; in particular, the trans-isomer of this agent showed potent protective effects. However, the ability of the trans-1,3-diMe-N-proTIQ isomer to prevent MPP+-induced PC12 cell death was weaker than that of its cis-isomer. Thus, stereoisomers of 1,3-diMe-N-proTIQ exhibit different effects; cis-1,3-diMe-N-proTIQ inhibits MPP+-induced cytotoxicity while trans-1,3-diMe-N-proTIQ exhibits neuroprotective effects primarily through MPTP-related biological events in mice. These results also indicate the possibility of utilizing, at least in part, the stereoselective efficacy of 1,3-diMe-N-proTIQ against MPTP and/or MPP+-induced adverse states.
Article: High Performance Liquid Chromatographic Determination of Clarithromycin in Lymphocytes Using a Post-column with Tris(2,2'-bipyridine) Ruthenium (III) Chemiluminescence Detection[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: The concentration of antibiotics in cells must be determined for effective treatment of infectious diseases caused by obligate intracellular parasites, such as Chlamydia trachomatis and Legionella pneumophila. We confirmed the usefulness of high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), which is already commonly used in medical facilities, for the measurement of antibiotics in cells. The measurement was carried out using a post-column with tris(2,2 � -bipyridine) ruthenium (III) chemiluminescence detection. Clarithromycin (CAM) was used as the model antibiotic. The retention time of CAM on the column was 7.6 ± 0.4 min and the detection limit was 2.0 × 10 −3 ng on column. The linearity of the calibration curve was guaranteed until 2.0 ng on column. This level of performance is comparable to that of liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry. The system was able to monitor changes in the concentration of CAM in lymphocytes. These findings suggest that HPLC, a general-purpose, already widely used detection system, could also contribute to the development of effective individual antibiotic treatment regimens at a wide variety of medical facilities.
Article: Identification of amino acids in the pore region of Kv1.2 potassium channel that regulate its glycosylation and cell surface expression[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: J. Neurochem. (2009) 112, 913–923. The Kv1.4 potassium channel is reported to exhibit higher cell surface expression than the Kv1.1 potassium channel when expressed as a homomer in cell lines. Kv1.4 also shows highly efficient trans-Golgi glycosylation whereas Kv1.1 is not glycosylated. The surface expression and glycosylation of Kv1.2 is intermediate between those of Kv1.1 and Kv1.4. Amino acid determinants controlling the surface expression of Kv1 channels were localized to the highly conserved pore region and both positive and negative determinants of Kv1.1 and Kv1.4 trafficking have been reported. In this study, we analyzed the effect of substituting amino acids in the pore region of Kv1.2 with the corresponding amino acid present in Kv1.1 or Kv1.4 on glycosylation and trafficking of Kv1.2. Mutations in the outer pore region of Kv1.2 of Arg354 to Pro (corresponding to Kv1.4) and to Ala (corresponding to Kv1.1) enhanced and reduced, respectively, cell surface expression of Kv1.2. Mutations in a different outer pore region of Val381 to Lys (Kv1.4) and Tyr (Kv1.1) both reduced the cell surface expression. In contrast, mutation in the deep pore region of Ser371 to Thr (Kv1.4) markedly enhanced cell surface expression. These results suggest that the cell surface expression of Kv1.2 is regulated by specific amino acids in the pore region in a similar manner to Kv1.1 and Kv1.4, and that the cell surface expression of Kv1.2, a channel intermediate between Kv1.1 and Kv1.4, can be attributed to these specific residues.
Article: Effect of β-phenylethylamine on extracellular concentrations of dopamine in the nucleus accumbens and prefrontal cortex[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: It is known that psychostimulants stimulate dopamine transmission in the nucleus accumbens. In the present study, we examined the effects of systemically administered beta-phenylethylamine (beta-PEA), a psychomotor-stimulating trace amine, on dopamine concentrations in the nucleus accumbens and prefrontal cortex in freely moving rats, using an in vivo microdialysis technique. Intraperitoneal administration of beta-PEA (12.5 and 25 mg/kg) significantly increased extracellular dopamine levels in the nucleus accumbens shell. The observed increase in the dopamine concentration in nucleus accumbens shell dialysate after intraperitoneal administration of 25 mg/kg beta-PEA was inhibited by pre-treatment with a dopamine uptake inhibitor, GBR12909 (10 mg/kg, i.p.). In contrast, beta-PEA (25 mg/kg, i.p.) did not affect dopamine release in the nucleus accumbens core. Although a high dose of beta-PEA (50 mg/kg) significantly increased dopamine levels in the nucleus accumbens core, the dopamine increasing effect of beta-PEA was more potent in the nucleus accumbens shell. Systemic administration of 12.5 and 25 mg/kg beta-PEA also increased extracellular dopamine levels in the prefrontal cortex of rats. However, systemic 25 mg/kg beta-PEA-induced increases in extracellular dopamine levels were not blocked by GBR12909 within the prefrontal cortex. These results suggest that beta-PEA has a greater effect in the shell than in the core and low-dose beta-PEA stimulates dopamine release in the nucleus accumbens shell through uptake by a dopamine transporter. Similarly, beta-PEA increased extracellular dopamine levels in the prefrontal cortex. Thus, beta-PEA may increase extracellular dopamine concentrations in the mesocorticolimbic pathway.
Article: Single administration of 1-benzyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinoline increases the extracellular concentration of dopamine in rat striatum[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: We performed a combined neurochemical and behavioral study to determine the effects of 1-benzyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinoline (1-BnTIQ) on the extracellular dopamine concentrations in the striatum. Single dose administration of 1-BnTIQ (20, 40, and 80 mg/kg i.p.) increased striatal dopamine extracellular levels in a dose-dependent manner when an in vivo microdialysis technique was used to assess dopamine levels in the striatum of rats. Enhancement of striatal dopamine levels by systemic administration of a single dose of 1-BnTIQ was suppressed by perfusion of tetrodotoxin and a calcium ion-free solution into the striatum. This 1-BnTIQ-induced increase in extracellular dopamine concentration was also inhibited by pre-treatment with a dopamine uptake inhibitor, GBR12909 (1-(2-[bis(4-Fluorophenyl)-4-(3-phenylpropyl)piperazine dihydrochloride). Local application of 1-BnTIQ into the striatum via a dialysis probe failed to enhance the extracellular concentration of dopamine. However, microinjection of 1-BnTIQ into the substantia nigra pars compacta increased the extracellular dopamine levels in the striatum. Locomotor activity was increased by systemic administration of a single dose of 1-BnTIQ in a dose-dependent manner. This 1-BnTIQ-induced locomotor activity was attenuated by pre-treatment with SCH23390 (R(+)-7-Chloro-8-hydroxy-3-methyl-1-phenyl-2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-1H-3-benzazepine hydrochlodride) and raclopride, D(1) and D(2) dopaminergic receptor antagonists, respectively. Moreover, 1-BnTIQ induced ipsilateral rotational behavior in 6-hydroxydopamine-lesioned rats. These results suggest that systemic administration of a single dose of 1-BnTIQ increases striatal extracellular dopamine concentration through activation of dopaminergic nigra striatal neurons via the dopamine transporter.
Article: IgM anti-GQ1b monoclonal antibody inhibits voltage-dependent calcium current in cerebellar granule cells[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Miller-Fisher syndrome (MFS), which is known to be associated with anti-GQ1b antibodies and to cause ataxia, is a variant of an acute inflammatory neuropathy. However, the pathogenic role of anti-GQ1b antibodies remains unclear. In this study, we investigated the effects of mouse IgM anti-GQ1b monoclonal antibody (IgM anti-GQ1b mAb) on the spontaneous muscle action potential of a rat spinal cord-muscle co-culture system and on the voltage-dependent calcium channel (VDCC) current in cerebellar granule cells and Purkinje cells using the whole-cell patch clamp technique. The frequency of spontaneous muscle action potential of the innervated muscle cells was transiently increased by IgM anti-GQ1b mAb and then was blocked completely, which was the same finding as reported previously. Moreover, the cerebellar granule cell VDCC current was decreased by 30.76+/-7.60% by 5 microg/mL IgM anti-GQ1b mAb, whereas IgM anti-GQ1b mAb did not affect the VDCC current in cerebellar Purkinje cells. In immunocytochemistry, IgM anti-GQ1b mAb stained the whole cell surface of cerebellar granule cells, but not that of Purkinje cells. Therefore, the clinical symptoms of Miller-Fisher syndrome, such as cerebellar-like ataxia, may be explained by the inhibitory effects of anti-GQ1b antibodies on VDCC current in cerebellar granule cells.
Article: Cav2.1 Voltage-dependent Ca2+ Channel Current is Inhibited by Serum from Select Patients with Guillain-Barré Syndrome[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: To investigate the pathophysiological mechanisms of immune-mediated peripheral neuropathies, we studied the effects of sera from patients with Guillain-Barré syndrome (GBS) on the Cav2.1 voltage-dependent calcium channel (VDCC) current in Purkinje cells. Using the whole-cell recording technique, Cav2.1 VDCC current was measured in cerebellar Purkinje cells in the presence of serum from GBS patients with acute motor axonal neuropathy (AMAN) or acute inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy (AIDP). The AMAN patient sera significantly inhibited the Cav2.1 VDCC current compared with healthy volunteer sera, and this inhibition was fully reversible by washing out the AMAN serum. Similarly, IgG purified from AMAN sera also inhibited the Cav2.1 VDCC current. However, the activation and inactivation kinetics of the Cav2.1 VDCC currents were not affected by serum from an AMAN patient. Moreover, the VDCC current of Purkinje cells was also inhibited by IgG anti-GM1 monoclonal antibody (anti-GM1 mAb). In an immunocytochemical study using double fluorescence staining, Purkinje cells were stained by monoclonal IgG anti-GM1 mAb. In contrast, AIDP patient and healthy volunteer sera did not affect the Cav2.1 VDCC current. These results suggest that in some case of GBS, particularly of AMAN patients with IgG anti-GM1 mAb, muscle weakness may be induced by dysfunction of Cav2.1 VDCC functioning at the motor nerve terminals.
Article: Expression and localization of Kv1 potassium channels in rat dorsal and ventral spinal roots[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: We investigated the expression and localization of Kv1 channels in dorsal spinal roots (DRs) and ventral spinal roots (VRs) in rats. Among Kv1.1-1.6 tested by RT-PCR, mRNAs of Kv1.1, 1.2, and 1.5 were moderately expressed, those of Kv1.3 and Kv1.6 were weakly expressed, and that of Kv1.4 was hardly expressed at all in both DRs and VRs, whereas all six mRNAs were detected in spinal cord. Western blotting revealed that the major immunoreactive proteins were Kv1.1 and Kv1.2 in both DRs and VRs. Quantitative analysis indicated that levels of Kv1.1 and Kv1.2 protein were significantly higher in DRs than VRs. Immunohistochemical examination showed that Kv1.1 and Kv1.2 were colocalized in juxtaparanodal regions of axons in both DRs and VRs. Finally, immunoprecipitation experiments revealed that Kv1.1 and Kv1.2 were coassembled. These findings indicate that Kv1 subtypes in DRs and VRs are somewhat different from those in spinal cord, and that the numbers of Kv1.1 and Kv1.2 channels are higher in DRs than VRs.
Article: In Vitro Response of Immunoregulatory Cytokine Expression in Human Monocytic Cells to Human Parvovirus B19 Capsid[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Human parvovirus B19 is a clinically important pathogen in both children and adults. In adults, it frequently causes acute and chronic arthritis, which may be related to persistent infection. The effect of the capsid of human parvovirus B19 on monocytes, which are thought to be responsible for the first line of defense against parvoviral infection, is not well understood. In this study, we investigated changes in mRNA expression levels of several immunoregulatory cytokines in monocytic cells after treatment with the B19 capsid. When human monocytic cell line THP-1 cells were treated with the B19 capsid, the expression of tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-alpha) mRNA was suppressed independently of transforming growth factor beta (TGF-beta) mRNA. In contrast, the level of mRNA for interleukin-1 alpha (IL-1alpha) remained unchanged, and that for interleukin-1 beta (IL-1beta) was slightly increased after the capsid treatment. Flow cytometry demonstrated that THP-1 cells treated with B19 capsid showed no differences in surface expression of CD11a, CD16 and CD33, as compared with control cells. These findings that B19 capsid antigen did not promote positive responses for production of TNF-alpha and IL-1alpha may provide insight into the mechanisms of persistent infection of human parvovirus B19 and the systemic viral spread via bloodstream.
Article: Involvement of the protein kinase Cγ isoform in development of tolerance to nitrous oxide-induced antinociception in mice[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Prolonged exposure to nitrous oxide (N2O) results in development of acute tolerance to its antinociceptive effect. Cross-tolerance to N2O-induced antinociception is also observed in morphine-tolerant animals. Despite increasing evidence of tolerance development to N2O-induced antinociception, the details of the mechanisms that underlie this tolerance remain unknown. The present study was conducted to investigate the involvement of brain protein kinase C (PKC) isoform in these two types of tolerance to N2O-induced antinociception in mice. Prolonged exposure (41 min in total, including 30 min pre-exposure and 11 min of antinociceptive testing) to 70% N2O produced a reduction in N2O-induced antinociception, indicating development of acute tolerance. The prolonged exposure to 70% N2O caused an activation of PKCgamma isoform in the brain, but not the PKCepsilon isoform. Pretreatment with a PKCgamma-antisense oligonucleotide but not the corresponding mismatch oligonucleotide (i.c.v.) prevented the development of acute tolerance to N2O-induced antinociception. Chronic morphine treatment (10 mg/kg, s.c., b.i.d. for 5 days) resulted in development of tolerance to morphine-induced antinociception and cross-tolerance to N2O-induced antinociception. The development of tolerance to morphine and cross-tolerance to N2O were both inhibited by pretreatment with PKC inhibitor, chelerythrine (1 nmol, i.c.v.). Morphine-tolerant mice showed an activation of PKC within the brain, which was suppressed by pretreatment with chelerythrine (1 nmol, i.c.v.). Thus, activation of brain PKC, in particular, the PKCgamma isoform, appears to play an important role in the development of both acute tolerance and cross-tolerance to N2O-induced antinociception in mice.
Article: IgG anti-GalNAc-GD1a antibody inhibits the voltage-dependent calcium channel currents in PC12 pheochromocytoma cell[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: We investigated the effects of IgG anti-GalNAc-GD1a antibodies, produced by immunizing rabbits with GalNAc-GD1a, on the voltage-dependent calcium channel (VDCCs) currents in nerve growth factor (NGF)-differentiated PC12 pheochromocytoma cells. VDCCs currents in NGF-differentiated PC12 cells were recorded using the whole-cell patch-clamp technique. Immunized rabbit serum that had a high titer of anti-GalNAc-GD1a antibodies inhibited the VDCCs currents in the NGF-differentiated PC12 cells (36.0+/-9.6% reduction). The inhibitory effect of this serum was reversed to some degree within 3-4 min by washing with bath solution. Similarly, application of purified IgG from rabbit serum immunized with GalNAc-GD1a significantly inhibited the VDCCs currents in PC12 cells (30.6+/-2.5% reduction), and this inhibition was recovered by washing with bath solution. Furthermore, the inhibitory effect was also observed in the GalNAc-GD1a affinity column binding fraction (reduction of 31.1+/-9.85%), while the GalNAc-GD1a affinity column pass-through fraction attenuated the inhibitory effect on VDCCs currents. Normal rabbit serum and normal rabbit IgG did not affect the VDCCs currents in the PC12 cells. In an immunocytochemical study using fluorescence staining, the PC12 cells were stained using GalNAc-GD1a binding fraction. These results indicate that anti-GalNAc-GD1a antibodies inhibit the VDCCs currents in NGF-differentiated PC12 cells.

ABSTRACT: We performed an electrophysiological study demonstrating inhibition of spontaneous muscle action potentials within a coculture of rat muscle and spinal cord by exposure to serum, as well as purified IgG, from patients with the acute motor axonal neuropathy (AMAN) variant of Guillain-Barré syndrome (GBS). However, exposure to serum from two patients with the acute inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy (AIDP) form of GBS had no effect. Using a whole-cell recording technique, we then investigated the effects of serum and purified IgG from patients with GBS on voltage-dependent calcium channel (VDCC) currents in nerve growth factor-differentiated PC12 cells. Serum from patients with GBS (AMAN) inhibited VDCC currents in PC12 cells, which was fully reversible by washing with the bath solution. Similarly, purified IgG from the serum of two patients with GBS (AMAN) also inhibited VDCC currents in PC12 cells. In contrast, sera from patients with AIDP and healthy volunteers did not affect VDCC currents in PC12 cells. These results suggest that muscle weakness in some patients with GBS might be induced by inhibition of Ca2+ channel currents within motor nerve terminals.

ABSTRACT: Exposure of mice to the anesthetic gas nitrous oxide (N(2)O) produces a marked antinociceptive effect. Protein kinase C is a key regulatory enzyme that may be targeted by general anesthetics. However, a relationship between N(2)O-induced antinociception and protein kinase C has yet to be established. The present study was conducted to identify whether protein kinase C might influence N(2)O-induced antinociception in mice. Regular exposure (11 min) to N(2)O produced concentration-dependent antinociception in mice, as determined using the abdominal constriction test. N(2)O-induced antinociception was attenuated by i.c.v. pretreatment with phorbol 12,13-dibutyrate, a protein kinase C activator. This phorbol 12,13-dibutyrate antagonism of N(2)O-induced antinociception was reversed by i.c.v. pretreatment with calphostin C, a protein kinase C inhibitor. Long-term exposure (41 min in total, including 30 min prior to, and 11 min of analgesic testing) to 70% N(2)O produced reduced analgesic effects, compared with regular exposure to 70% N(2)O, thus indicating acute tolerance to N(2)O-induced antinociception. However, mice pretreated with calphostin C, chelerythrine, which is another protein kinase C inhibitor, and phorbol 12,13-dibutyrate, did not develop acute tolerance. Regarding activation of protein kinase C, regular exposure to 70% N(2)O did not increase protein kinase C within the membrane fraction of brain tissue, as determined by immunoblot analysis, but long-term exposure to 70% N(2)O did. The i.c.v. pretreatment with calphostin C and phorbol 12,13-dibutyrate prevented the increase in protein kinase C observed with long-term exposure to 70% N(2)O. These results suggest that brain protein kinase C negatively regulates the antinociceptive effect of N(2)O, and that activation of brain protein kinase C is related to the development of acute tolerance to N(2)O-induced antinociception in mice.
Article: Glycosylation and Cell Surface Expression of Kv1.2 Potassium Channel are Regulated by Determinants in the Pore Region[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Voltage-gated K(+) channels contain six membrane spanning segments and a pore-forming domain. We used site-directed mutation to examine the role of specific amino acids in the extracellular region of the pore in Kv1.2. When expressed in CHO cells, a K(+) current was not observed for mutants S356A, S360A, T383A and T384A. However, coexpression of the Kvbeta2 subunit and the S360A mutant resulted in a robust peak current. Immunocytochemistry for Kv1.2 showed staining throughout the cytoplasm in cells coexpressing the beta2 and S360A, whereas only the perinuclear region was stained in cells expressing the S360A mutant. Western blotting revealed that the major immunoreactive protein in wild-type- and mutant-expressing cells is 60-kDa, but 87-kDa bands were also detected in cells expressing wild-type Kv1.2 and cells coexpressing beta2and S360A. These results suggest that amino acids in the pore region help regulate ion permeability or cellular trafficking by affecting glycosylation of Kv1.2.
Article: Beta-phenylethylamine stimulates striatal acetylcholine release through activation of the AMPA glutamatergic pathway.[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Using an in vivo intra-striatal microdialysis technique, we examined the effects of systemically administered beta-phenylethylamine (beta-PEA), a psychomotor stimulating trace amine, on striatal acetylcholine release in freely moving rats. Infusion of N-methyl-D-aspartic acid (NMDA; 10(-5) M) significantly increased acetylcholine release. In addition, locally applied amino-3-hydroxy-5-methylisozasole-4-propionic acid (AMPA; 10(-5) M) significantly increased acetylcholine release in the striatum. Intra-striatal application of 6-cyano-7-nitroquinoxaline-2,3-dione (CNQX; 10(-5) M), an AMPA-type glutamatergic receptor antagonist, had little effect on acetylcholine release, while application of MK-801 (10(-5) M, 10(-6) M), an NMDA-type glutamatergic receptor antagonist, significantly reduced acetylcholine release. Acetylcholine within striatal perfusate was significantly increased by intraperitoneal administration of beta-PEA in a dose-dependent manner. This increase in acetylcholine release was completely blocked by application of CNQX (10(-5) M) through the microdialysis probe into the striatum. However, increased acetylcholine response to systemic beta-PEA was unaltered by addition of MK-801 to the perfusion medium. These results suggest a regulatory function of beta-PEA, mediated by AMPA-type glutamatergic receptors, on the release of acetylcholine in the rat striatum.
Article: β-Phenylethylamine Stimulates Striatal Acetylcholine Release through Activation of the AMPA Glutamatergic Pathway[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Using an in vivo intra-striatal microdialysis technique, we examined the effects of systemically administered β-phenylethylamine (β-PEA), a psychomotor stimulating trace amine, on striatal acetylcholine release in freely moving rats. Infusion of N-methyl-D-aspartic acid (NMDA; 10-5 M) significantly increased acetylcholine release. In addition, locally applied amino-3-hydroxy-5-methylisozasole-4-propionic acid (AMPA; 10-5 M) significantly increased acetylcholine release in the striatum. Intra-striatal application of 6-cyano-7-nitroquinoxaline-2,3-dione (CNQX; 10-5 M), an AMPA-type glutamatergic receptor antagonist, had little effect on acetylcholine release, while application of MK-801 (10-5 M, 10 -6 M), an NMDA-type glutamatergic receptor antagonist, significantly reduced acetylcholine release. Acetylcholine within striatal perfusate was significantly increased by intraperitoneal administration of β-PEA in a dose-dependent manner. This increase in acetylcholine release was completely blocked by application of CNQX (10-5 M) through the microdialysis probe into the striatum. However, increased acetylcholine response to systemic β-PEA was unaltered by addition of MK-801 to the perfusion medium. These results suggest a regulatory function of β-PEA, mediated by AMPA-type glutamatergic receptors, on the release of acetylcholine in the rat striatum.

text: Post by Johanna Fry, Public Relations InternI am a rising senior and public relations major at San Jose State (Go Spartans!). Last week I began my summer internship in the corporate communications department at Cisco headquarters in San Jose. Earlier this week, with over 500 others, I attended the summer kickoff for Cisco interns. Cisco Chairman and CEO John Chambers was kind enough to be the keynote speaker. He is a dynamic speaker and captured the attention of everyone in the room. The message I left with was,"Cisco is a cool place to be." Sure, I have only been here two full weeks, but I can attest to that. The internship program at Cisco is a much desired transition into the 'real world' for most college students. Besides exceptional work experience, I have an opportunity to network with Cisco communications professionals, other Cisco employees, and interns. I will learn more about Cisco's technology and how it is useful to large businesses, small businesses and more and more, the consumer.John didn't need to tell me that Cisco is a cool place to be. When I tell people I am spending my summer vacation at Cisco, the excitement of their response is palpable. I am excited to be here, and frankly it is nice to be envied by those working less cool summer jobs. I'll update you periodically on my internship and what I'm learning about Cisco. I did think it was cool that the CEO of a $160 billion company would take his time to speak to all of us interns…and I get to tell him that personally at my birthday chat with him next month…I'll update you on that as well.

But meaningful sense is often absent from the gaseous rhetoric that makes it past White House editors -- are there any? -- and onto the president's teleprompter. Consider one recent example:
Nine days before speaking in Copenhagen, the president, addressing the United Nations General Assembly, intoned: "No one nation can or should try to dominate another nation." What was the speechwriter thinking when he or she assembled that sentence? The "should" was empty moralizing; the "can" was nonsense redundantly refuted by history. Does our Cicero even glance at his speeches before reading them in public?
Becoming solemn in Copenhagen, Obama said: "No one expects the games to solve all our collective problems." That's right, no one does. So why say that? Then, shifting into the foggy sentimentalism of standard Olympics blather, he said "peaceful competition between nations represents what's best about our humanity" and "it brings us together" and "it helps us to understand one another."
Actually, sometimes the Olympic games are a net subtraction from international comity. But Obama quickly returned to speaking about ... himself:
"Nearly one year ago, on a clear November night, people from every corner of the world gathered in the city of Chicago or in front of their televisions to watch the results of the U.S. presidential election. Their interest wasn't about me as an individual. Rather, ... "
It was gallant of the president to say to the Olympic committee that Michelle is "a pretty big selling point for the city." Gallant, but obviously untrue. And -- this is where we pass from the merely silly to the ominous -- suppose the president was being not gallant but sincere. Perhaps the premise of the otherwise inexplicable trip to Denmark was that there is no difficulty, foreign or domestic, that cannot be melted by the sunshine of the Obama persona. But in the contest between the world and any president's charm, bet on the world.
Presidents often come to be characterized by particular adjectives: "honest" Abe Lincoln, "Grover the Good" Cleveland, "energetic" Theodore Roosevelt, "idealistic" Woodrow Wilson, "Silent Cal" Coolidge, "confident" FDR, "likable" Ike Eisenhower. Less happily, there were "Tricky Dick" Nixon and "Slick Willie" Clinton. Unhappy will be a president whose defining adjective is "vain."
Rush Limbaugh defends Rubio's debate answer: He's absolutely right that Obama knows what he's doing | Allahpundit
Time for Team Hillary to break out the gender card for young liberal women who prefer Sanders | Allahpundit

You'd think the news team would rule out thunder before calling surrounding military bases, yes?
We asked our Facebook fans if they felt it and over 100 people responded. The USGS has not reported any significant earthquakes in the last few hours. The news desk has been calling all the local military bases and all have denied that it was a sonic boom from their aircraft.

Good shot!
Great shot!

Wavelength in vacuum
Index of refraction of glass
Red light
700 nm
Blue light
480 nm
The glass prism shown above has an index of refraction thatdepends on the wavelenth of the light that enters it. The index ofrefraction is 1.5 for red light of wavelength 700 nanometers (700 X10^-9 meter) in vacuum and 1.6 for blue light of wavelength 480nanometers in vacuum. A beam of white light is incident from theleft, perpendicular to the first surface, as shown in the figure,and is dispersed by the prism into its spectral components.
(a) determine the speed of the blue light in the glass.
(b) determine the wavelength of the red light in theglass.
(c) determine the frequency of the red light in theglass.
(d) on the figure above sketch the approximate paths of boththe red and theblue rays as they pas through the glass and back outinto the vacuum. ignore any reflected light. it is not necessary tocalculate any angles, but do clearly show the change in directionof the rays, if any, at each surface and be sure todistinguish carefully any differences between the paths of the redand the blue beams.
(e) the figure below represents a wedge-shaped hollow space ina large piece of the type of glass described above. on this figure,sketch the approzimate path of the red and the blue rays as theypass through the hollow prism and back into the glass. again,ignore any reflected light, clearly show changes in direction, ifnay, where refraction occurs, and carefully distinguish anydifferences in the two paths.
(i know this is alot, but please answer each part of thequestion seperately and clearly. please label which part (a,b,c,d,or e) of the problem you are solving at each time. if possibleplease give a step by step walkthough on how to solve this problem,and also give all equations that you use in solving it.)
thank you.

The former highly ranked tennis player David Wheaton is a good friend of Answers in Genesis. While he honeymooned in Scotland a few months ago, a photo of David was taken standing on top of parking spot #23 in front of Edinburgh's famous church, St. Giles—where the great Reformer John Knox preached. Knox is buried under this gold plate! As I've noted before, Charles Darwin is celebrated by being buried inside the famous church in London, Westminster Abbey, yet Knox's grave is in a Scottish parking lot! There's something wrong with this picture!

Morbid Anatomy Presents at Observatory. "Humans riding on the backs of Dinosaurs: A walk through the Creation Museum in Petersburg, Kentucky USA." by John Erik Troyer, Ph.D., Centre for Death and Society, University of Bath Date: Monday October 26th…Admission: $5Well—at least it's more publicity! Thanks for stopping by and thanks for praying
In May 2007, the twenty-seven million dollar Creation Museum opened in Petersburg, Kentucky. The museum is dedicated to representing a "young earth," Christian explanation of the planet, which makes the known universe roughly 6-10,000 years old. Within the museum, visitors can view a large-scale Garden of Eden diorama, a fully loaded planetarium, and animatronic dinosaurs. Since opening, well over 835,000 people have visited the museum. The Creation Museum is a key player in what Troyer calls the American Science War and is part of an ongoing battle between advocates of Evolutionary Biology, Intelligent Design, and Creationism. This presentation closely (and humorously) examines the relationships between Creationism, Intelligent Design, and Evolution in America by giving a pictorial tour of the Creation Museum in Petersburg, Kentucky. There will also be artifacts from the museum for your perusal.

This is the staff used by the Traveling Wizard on his journeys. It is a powerful staff with a past even older than the wizard who carries it. This item has a past, and there is more to it than meets the eye.
This sword, enchanted with the dark magic of the Underworld, is wielded by Never Ending Silence, a Death-Knight.
Every year, the Lizardfolk, who call themselves the Quetzalx, send traders to the colony of Armegk, bringing with them their special kind of gold…
A spear that could undo the enemy, or undo the beholder…
This is said to be the box in which Urku, creator of the Orcs, captured the sun.
This wizard had unlimited power, until he lost his marbles…
A normal bag lets you hold stuff. A bag of holding lets you hold more stuff. This bag lets you hold someone else's stuff.
A pouch that randomly generates (not very) usefull items
A gruesome artifact that harbors the savage soul…
The Heart that beats slowly in the dark.
This blade is not old, nor is it renowned. It means alot to the one that bears it, however, and can be very deadly if used properly.
Sometimes locks need that extra sharp fingernail to twist the catch. Sometimes a thief might find himself locked in a prison with a wooden door. The Muzzled Mouse is a hideous little tool which helps one in such situations…
A weird way to carry and conceal your stuff.
GalwaEnchena is the name for the ultimate weapon, the weapon said to be able to slay even a God, if the wielder is willing. This weapon appears to be a finely crafted broadsword. It is so much more. Forged by Corvus the Great, for Alyen the Wise, known as Alyen the Bloody, King of Western Marches, it is a weapon so terrible that it brought peace to the land. Note: GalwaEnchena in the old tongue means "End of Conflict/ End of War"
Rings of great benefit, but also sizeable danger.
A simple leather harness covered with an odd assortment of axes.
A fist-sized clot of shadows with strange visual properties.
Dorlyanic Crystal is a substance from which the ancient Dorlyans, godling-race of a distant planet, forged their mighty weapons. Weapons made from it cleave the flesh of the supernatural and the extraterrestrial like a hot knife through butter.
A guaranteed life-saver in some situations, a good armor anytime. Several miraculous death-and-return situations were observed on its wearers, but seldom attributed to the simple leather armor.
Normal small knives modified to give fast attacks. Enchanted versions are even more deadly.
Small identical wooden or metal discs with a strange pattern engraved upon them (do not appear to be coinage). The discs can be found all over the continent; a farmer typically overturns several dozen when ploughing a field. Though they are unnaturally hard to break, they have no known use and are widely used as good-luck charms: almost all households would have them on the doors and on mantle pieces; many people carry one or more on them, bound on to a belt, necklace or sewn on to their clothes.

Ingest evidence rather than confiscate it and you'll develop embarrassing addictions you can kick only via meter-driven mini-games, or you'll get busted in a random drug test.
The controls are quite responsive, offering a wide assortment of combat moves, but the weak camera hinders them.
The narrative is a bit thin—there's a new drug on the street called "Liquid Soul" and your task is to figure out where it's coming from—but once the fists and lead start flying, you won't really give a damn why you're doing what you're doing.
I had fun playing the game, which is all that really matters. Some missions were frustrating, but the generous continue system helped repress some of the anger.
Whether you're high or not, the action never moves beyond the primitive realm of shoot, punch, kick, tackle, grapple, throw and pummel. The only time the game gets legitimately challenging is when it becomes necessary to toggle out of the drug menu and select your beating fist or holster a weapon to arrest a suspect.
Play MagazineA few annoying control and camera issues become readily apparent in some of the more frustrating missions. [May 2005, p.54]
PSM MagazineBe aware that its vehicle-less gameplay resembles "State of Emergency" a lot more than it does "GTA: San Andreas." [June 2005, p.79]
If you strip away the patently silly drug effects and the forced attitude, NARC is an unimpressive mission-based third-person action game. It's also short, rife with bugs, and basically not a lot of fun to play.
The best part about this remake is the ability to unlock the original NARC from 1988, but only if you can force yourself to play long enough to do so.
Even if its opinion is a little simplistic ("Drugs have short-term benefits and long-term consequences") and awkwardly included in the game, at least there's an attempt at a message, which is more than most games manage.
A slew of problems hold NARC back from being the anticipated game many expected, and personally, I'll blame VIS for it. The gameplay relies too heavily on something like "State of Emergency," and it just isn't fun.
Game InformerPut simply, NARC is a mess. Every time it starts to show a little potential, it blindsides you with a nearly unplayable mission, amazing camera failure, or a flat-out boring sidequest. [May 2005, p.112]
netjakAside from hearing what decently cast voice acting sounds like and hearing Michael Madsen give an excellent performance in 6-10 hours of bad gameplay, there's absolutely no reason to touch this game, even at $20.
We like guns, we like city envirnments, and we like laughable drugs and violence references. AND we like arresting people. But we don't like Narc. No. Sorry. [PSM2]
AceGamezQuite simply a short and boring third person shooter that tries too hard to be edgy and just comes off as more sick and disgusting than anything else I've played.
Everything about the game feels clumsy. The graphics are mediocre, the gameplay is middling and repetitive, and the completely shallow glorification of drug use is either appalling or just plain stupid.
It works in small doses in providing some carnage and distraction from reality.
The game falls not only short of expectation, but also below what this great team is capable of.
This moral ambiguity is one of NARC's biggest selling points, but it's also one of the game's biggest flaws. No matter how far you cross the line, you're never beyond redemption.
Computer Games MagazineOffers a quick toot of dopey euphoria, followed by twitching hours of comedown and regret. [July 2005, p.90]
The gameplay is unexciting, and the counterintuitive controls make it even worse. I had a hard time aiming because of the awful camera controls.
Terrible control, lame features and an overall lack of excitement make this law enforcement experience worse than an episode of "Cop Rock."
Crap aiming and a crap camera combine with boring, nonsensical missions to translate into horrid gameplay for the main story.

JesseS.Jun 18, 2005I had really high hopes for this game when I first learned the news of its development. All I could think of is all of the great things they I had really high hopes for this game when I first learned the news of its development. All I could think of is all of the great things they could do with it. There was plenty of things they could do to make this an innovative, fun game. Things that they did not do. Instead, you get a game that leaves you feeling completely cheated. The graphics are horrendous compared to other titles. This game makes Grand Theft Auto look like Doom 3. You'll have more fun counting how many recycling pedstrian designs you see walking down the street than playing the game. The controls fail miserably with a crappy aiming scheme, clunky controls, and a terrible camera. I would like to say that the gameplay would make it worth while, but I would be lying. You walk the streets, arrest criminals, confiscate drugs and/or weapons, go deposit them or use them, repeat. Either that or you do some of the most boring and overdone missions ever known to gaming. They have so many flaws its rediculous. For example, there is a mission where you are to take pictures of a gang on a basketball court. The idea is to get a picture of the face, so they can be identified. You will find yourself aiming the camera at one of the gang member's faces, directly, but the picture is useless - you have to be in the spot the game wants you to be in. There simply is NO variety in this game. If you're one of the people that had the same high hopes as I did for this game, please save yourself the time, money, and headache and avoid it all costs. Easily one of the worst PS2 titles ever devloped.… Full Review »

Clock That Looks Like Dynamite
As I saw this stunning clock that looks like dynamite over at the Brazilian shop imaginarium I immediately was thinking on AC/DC's song TNT:
See me ride out of the sunset
On your colour TV screen
Out for all that I can get
If you know what I mean
Women to the left on me
And woman to the right
Ain't got no gun and got no knife
Don't you start no fight
Cause I'm
TNT I'm dynamite
TNT And I'll win the fight
TNT I'm a powerload
TNT watch me explode
Bang … and suddenly I woke up and realized that I am tempted to get one. #wishlisted. ❚

Under the Union Jack
AFTER WINNING CONTROL OF NORTH America from the French and adding all Canada and the territory east of the Mississippi River, except Spanish Florida, to its empire, the British government had to face the responsibility of governing and protecting the region, as well as dealing with its Indian inhabitants. While the former would be costly in terms of men and money, the Crown had every reason to believe that the latter would be accomplished with relative simplicity. Most Indians appeared willing to abandon old ties with the French and become allied with their former British enemies. This apparent fickleness was actually a reflection of the Indian view of survival in a world increasingly filled with white interlopers—always try to be allied with the group that was the most powerful and delivered the most trade goods. In this instance, however, the transfer of loyalty seemed more sincere because during the French and Indian War British agents had promised both to expand trade with the tribes and to continue the established French policy of distributing food, guns, ammunition, and liquor. Indeed, Indians had good cause to expect that they would prosper from an alliance with the victorious British.
Indian expectations were dashed when the Crown appointed Lord Jeffrey Amherst governor general of British North America. The new governor was unimaginative, fussy, ill-tempered, and totally lacking in respect for both Indians and American colonists, whom he considered crude, uncivilized, and savage. Since the British, at the time of assuming control of North America, had no official Indian policy, the task of creating one fell to Amherst. To assist him, the governor summoned Sir William Johnson, head of the Northern Indian Superintendency since 1756. Johnson, who had a deserved reputation of being a respected, trusted friend of Indians, proposed that the government abide by all promises made during the war and that licensed traders be allowed to visit Indian encampments and sell merchandise at a maximum profit of 67 percent.

We are leaving Thursday and it is about an hour and forty-five minute flight. I have flown with him before, but he was three months old and no problem, but now he doesn't like sitting still for long periods of time. Any advice on what I can do or take to keep him occupied would be greatly appreciated.
How can I entertain my 14 month old on an air plane?

I travelled with my 16 month old twins to India.. 17 hour flight, of which they were awake almost 9 hours.... To keep them busy I took magna doodle.. Few pieces of legos.. crayons and paper.. and of course tons of finger food (cheerios, goldfish)...
They also spent their time making friends with people behind us...
My DS' first flight was a 14 hour one. I was TERRIFIED because he was the same way (15 mo at the time). It turned out to be fine. Somebody had said to me that they just "get it" because everybody is sitting there. He seemed to. We just paid attention to him the whole time, talked to him, read him books, played with the doodle pro, etc. We bought a few special toys that would be new. One thing he liked was we bought a game of "Memory" and just let him sort through the cards and look at the different pictures on them. Good luck!

I never had that luck!
When mine were 14-20 months old, we did a lot of walking up and down the aisles. Up and down, up and down... Especially my youngest and oldest. They only run on two speeds. I was really grateful for the car seats on board because that way, I could secure them when they slept. I could also get up and go to the bathroom without disturbing them (told F/A or neighbor where I went). Mine only stayed in their seats when they were either sleeping or eating. Otherwise, they were up...
Coloring stuff, stickers and books worked well for us. Some parents claim pinwheels, pipe cleaners and play dough work well. The play dough made a huge mess the one time I brought it. Someone mentioned that it might not have been fresh. If you take any, bring recently-bought, not something was was on the shelf for awhile.
I do not recommend a portable DVD player only because he would have to wear the earphones and most toddlers aren't cooperative. I don't think it's necessary for such a short flight. The other option is to watch is without sound. If you're bringing your computer anyway, you could pack a CD or two to see if it works for him.

For the earphones : My DD would never wear them either! On our last 3 flights we just put the earphones on her chest and turned the volume on really loud so she could hear something that way. She really like it and watch some TV on our 9 hour flight to Germany.
Books, coloring books and stickers keep her really busy as well.
I agree about the car seats : I really liked having her car seat on board. I flew by myself with her and that way she was secure in her car seat when I had to go to the bathroom. She was comfy sleeping in there too

I am flying next month with my 4 year old daughter and my 20 month old son. I'm not worried about my daughter - she's flown so much in her life that she just sits by the window and does her own thing. My son, however, is another matter. I am wondering how I'm going to keep him busy and it's only an hour and a half flight! My daughter was content to read books and play with small toys, but he's a mover and a shaker and last time we flew (October) I wanted to scream (of course daughter had cold so her ears were killing her). He just wanted to walk around. Should I let him if he wants to this time? On such a short flight most people just sit in their seats (unlike a longer flight where people move around more), so I always feel conspicuous when I have to get up with the kids. I'm thinking of taking markers/crayons, coloring books, lift the flap books (he loves those), and some of sister's small my little ponies and some of his superheroes. Luckily he'll sleep on the way to the airport so he'll be nice and refreshed for the flight and hopefully cooperative!
We are flying Southwest, and will try to check in online even though I'm travelling with a lapchild (they used to say it wouldn't work but I'm going to try since they changed their preboarding policy). We will sit in the window and aisle seat and pray it's not a full flight so we'll have the middle seat for my son.

At 14 months he might enjoy some cards with pictures of wild animals to look at - we had some from the World Wildlife Federation for my DD and she loved them.
There is a lot of new and interesting stuff to look at in a plane. Be the LAST people on the plane. If you are the first, you just added 20-30 minutes to the time your DS is in the plane. If you are the last on the plane - you'll be about 30 minutes or so from landing before the "newness" wears off.

You have a SATA II connection for your hard drive - 3.0 Gbps Serial ATA. Buying a SSD rated at 6.0 Gbps Serial ATA isn't going to do you any good (such as the Crucial m4 series).
Both Crucial and OWC make 3.0 Gbps Serial ATA SSDs. Go shopping and come back when you've narrowed down your choices.
dmdimon Nov 14, 2012 4:57 AM
in response to mbalves
sorry but no and no.
Momentus is a mixed bug - not an ssd actually - and have mixed user responce
Crucial is a good thing, just bit outdated and they mess up with firmware updates. Also you'll need trim enabler for crucial
for all-purpose install-and-forget I'd say something like OWC6G serie or latest of Vertex3 (not 4)
for tinkering with trim enabler - Samsung 830-840

cmon, SATA III drives are measurably faster even on SATA II bas (especially on writes) - they are just on newer controllers.
mbalves Nov 14, 2012 6:34 AM
in response to dmdimon
Is that a problem if I install the crucial without the trim enabled ? OWC I wouldn't like to buy since I am from Portugal and I don't have it available here.
I was thinking between the these options:
Which one would be better to choose?
Thanks in advance
dmdimon Nov 14, 2012 7:44 AM
in response to mbalves
samsung costs way too much.
Afaik both clintonfrombirmingham and me are using Crucial M4 and its a good drive, more than enough for sata II
Using drive without a trim is not a problem, just over time (it'll depend on usage pattern) speed will degrade a bit. With mild usage M4 on sata II probably will not lose lot of speed.
process will take months for heavy enough usage and years for light usage. And trim enabling is an easy trick.

Can I still replace Samsung 840 pro SSD even my macbook pro mid 2010 is SATA II connection? Do they support?
macdaddy Jan 30, 2013 1:56 PM
in response to mbalves
All SATA III are backwards compatible with SATA II, you just get reduced speeds.
I have the momentus 750 gb in mine currently and it works fine, great if you want a compromise between speed and space and cost.
as for pure SSDs you can go for the samsung 840 pro but it's pointless to go for such a premium drive since you only have SATA II, might as well look for a lesser 256 gb and pay a lot less, like the OCZ agility 4, for instance.
but if you do decide to go with the seagate the 750gb version is miles ahead of the 500gb
Praveen0 Jan 30, 2013 6:57 PM
in response to macdaddy
macdday, thats great input, thanks. I see that momentus is hybrid hd. I only researched on SSD and best I found was crucial and vertex, then I heard about samsung 840pro. All of them nearly ~$200. I got 840pro for $200, thought better.

All injunctions in Apple vs Motorola patent war thrown out
Judge Posner, the judge presiding over the cases of Apple vs Motorola and their patent war, has gotten fed up. The entire case, consisting of 4 alleged patent infringements against Motorola Mobility, has been thrown out of the courts. This is after the previously requested jury trial was tentatively dismissed a couple of weeks ago. The whole thing began 2 years ago (well before the Google / Moto merger), and is finally tucking and rolling off the bandwagon.
Judge Posner seemed, however, to side on Motorola's side, stating:
No more can Apple be permitted to force a trial in Federal Court the sole outcome of which would be an award of $1.
Sounds to me like Judge Posner was wise to the fact that Apple was probably never looking for any type of financial gain in the first place, but rather trying to keep Motorola from getting product out to the public in a timely manner. Motorola responded:
We are pleased that Judge Posner formally dismissed the case against Motorola Mobility. Apple's litigation campaign began with their attempt to assert 15 patents against us. As it relates to Apple's violation of our patents, we will continue our efforts to defend our own innovation.
The question now is, will Apple try to appeal? Given their track record of using the courtroom as a personal battlefield (in this editor's opinion), I have a feeling this isn't the last time Motorola will be pulled back into the ring.
