Pathological remodeling of the myocardium has long been known to involve oxidant signaling, but strategies using systemic antioxidants have generally failed to prevent it. We sought to identify key regulators of oxidant-mediated cardiac hypertrophy amenable to targeted pharmacological therapy. Specific

Development of combination therapies has received significant interest in recent years. Previously, a two-receptor one-transducer (2R-1T) model was proposed to characterize drug interactions with two receptors that lead to the same phenotypic response through a common transducer pathway. We applied

Excessive renal efferent sympathetic nerve activity contributes to hypertension in many circumstances. Although both hemodynamic and tubular effects likely participate, most evidence supports a major role for α-adrenergic receptors in mediating the direct epithelial stimulation of sodium retention. Recently, it

Noise generated by instruments, such as mastoid or craniotomy drills, may cause hearing damage by reducing the cochlear blood flow (CoBF). This study investigated whether dexmedetomidine can lessen noise-induced hearing loss (NIHL) in a guinea pig model. Animal study using

Neuronal networks are endogenously modulated by aminergic and peptidergic substances. These modulatory processes are critical for maintaining normal activity and adapting networks to changes in metabolic, behavioral, and environmental conditions. However, disturbances in neuromodulation have also been associated with pathologies.

Our team of scientists has experience in all areas of research including Life Science, Material Science, Chemical Synthesis, Chromatography, Analytical and many others.
