Journal ArticleDOI

Pentylenetetrazole induced changes in zebrafish behavior, neural activity and C-fos expression

TL;DR: Zebrafish larvae represent a powerful new system to study the underlying basis of seizure generation, epilepsy and epileptogenesis and are demonstrated to exhibit behavioral, electrographic, and molecular changes that would be expected from a rodent seizure model.
Journal ArticleDOI

Myocardial Free Fatty Acid and Glucose Use After Carvedilol Treatment in Patients With Congestive Heart Failure

TL;DR: Carvedilol treatment in patients with heart failure results in a 57% decrease in myocardial FFA use without a significant change in glucose use, which could contribute to the observed improvements in energy efficiency seen in patientswith heart failure.
Journal Article

An Evaluation of Myocardial Fatty Acid and Glucose Uptake Using PET with [18F]Fluoro-6-Thia-Heptadecanoic Acid and [18F]FDG in Patients with Congestive Heart Failure

TL;DR: Myocardial free fatty acid and glucose use in heart failure can be quantitatively assessed using PET with [18F]FTHA and FDG, and a shift in myocardial substrate use may be an indication of impaired energy efficiency in the failing heart.
