Clubfoot is a birth defect that may be related to muscle weakness or imbalance. The purpose of this study was to examine the relationships among muscle and tendon size and embryonic motility in a paralyzed chick embryo model of clubfoot

This study determined the effect of decamethonium bromide (DMBr), a non-competitive blocker of the neuromuscular junction, on skeletal muscle development during chick embryogenesis. Decamethonium bromide caused generalized edema and high mortality with treated embryos rarely surviving beyond day 16 of

Transgenic mouse models with nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (nAChR) knockouts and knockins have provided important insights into the molecular substrates of addiction and disease. However, most studies of heterologously expressed neuronal nAChR have used clones obtained from other species, usually human

We have studied the action of some membranotropic agents (MTAs) on the parameters of mono- and multilayers of dipalmitoylphosphatidylcholine (DPPC). The MTAs used included an antimicrobial drug, decamethoxinum, the model amphiphilic agent stearoyl-L-alpha-alanine, and cholesterol as a reference substance. Using

We have previously used MALDI mass spectrometry to highlight ammonium- or guanidinium-aromatic interactions via cation-pi bonding and ammonium- or guanidinium-phosphate interactions through salt bridge formation. In the present work, the gas-phase stability and dissociation pathways of the interaction between phosphorylated
