TL;DR: The results suggest that, although the central dogma of maternal inheritance of mtDNA remains valid, there are some exceptional cases where paternal mtDNA could be passed to the offspring and may even lead to the development of new avenues for the therapeutic treatment for pathogenic mtDNA transmission.
Journal ArticleDOI
Nociceptin/Orphanin FQ Peptide Receptors: Pharmacology and Clinical Implications
TL;DR: The pharmacological characteristics of N/OFQ receptor agonists and studies with, the available NOP receptor ligands and their possible clinical implications are summarized.
Journal ArticleDOI
Age-Dependent Differences in Glutathione Peroxidase Activity after Traumatic Brain Injury
TL;DR: Findings support the hypothesis that the immature brain does not have an adequate compensatory response to injury from oxidative stress, and illuminate the important role of oxidative stress after TBI in the immaturebrain that warrants further study.
Journal ArticleDOI
Orexins/Hypocretins: Pain regulation and cellular actions
Lih-Chu Chiou,Hsin Jung Lee,Yu-Cheng Ho,Shih Pin Chen,Yan Yu Liao,Chia Hau Ma,Pi-Chuan Fan,Jong Ling Fuh,Shuu Jiun Wang +8 more
TL;DR: This review summarizes the studies investigating the antinociceptive effects of orexins in various animal models of pain, including trigeminovascular pain, and their cellular mechanisms.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mutation of mitochondrial DNA G13513A presenting with Leigh syndrome, Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome and cardiomyopathy.
TL;DR: It is suggested that mtDNA G13513A mutation is an important factor in patients with Leigh syndrome associated with WPW syndrome and/or optic atrophy, and serial heart function monitoring by echocardiography is recommended in this group of patients.
