TL;DR: The expression profile identified alterations in numerous virulence and SOS response genes and revealed unexpected findings concerning the biology of the Salmonella–macrophage interaction, suggesting that intracellular growth involves novel macrophage‐associated functions.
Abstract: For intracellular pathogens such as Salmonellae, Mycobacteriae and Brucellae, infection requires adaptation to the intracellular environment of the phagocytic cell. The transition from extracellular to intravacuolar environment has been expected to involve a global modulation of bacterial gene expression, but the precise events have been difficult to determine. We now report the complete transcriptional profile of intracellular Salmonella enterica sv. Typhimurium following macrophage infection. During replication in murine macrophage-like J774-A.1 cells, 919 of 4451 S. Typhimurium genes showed significant changes in transcription. The expression profile identified alterations in numerous virulence and SOS response genes and revealed unexpected findings concerning the biology of the Salmonella-macrophage interaction. We observed that intracellular Salmonella are not starved for amino acids or iron (Fe2+), and that the intravacuolar environment is low in phosphate and magnesium but high in potassium. S. Typhimurium appears to be using the Entner-Douderoff pathway to use gluconate and related sugars as a carbon source within macrophages. Almost half the in vivo-regulated genes were of unknown function, suggesting that intracellular growth involves novel macrophage-associated functions. This is the first report that identifies the whole set of in vivo-regulated genes for any bacterial pathogen during infection of mammalian cells.

TL;DR: The aim of this review is to summarize and synthesize basic information and recent advances in the understanding of the properties of the detrusor smooth muscle, its contractile system, cellular signaling, membrane properties, and cellular receptors.
Abstract: The detrusor smooth muscle is the main muscle component of the urinary bladder wall. Its ability to contract over a large length interval and to relax determines the bladder function during filling and micturition. These processes are regulated by several external nervous and hormonal control systems, and the detrusor contains multiple receptors and signaling pathways. Functional changes of the detrusor can be found in several clinically important conditions, e.g., lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) and bladder outlet obstruction. The aim of this review is to summarize and synthesize basic information and recent advances in the understanding of the properties of the detrusor smooth muscle, its contractile system, cellular signaling, membrane properties, and cellular receptors. Alterations in these systems in pathological conditions of the bladder wall are described, and some areas for future research are suggested.

TL;DR: This work has shown that in one vertebrate model system, the lamprey, it has been possible to make the connection between different subtypes of ion channels and transmitters and their roles at the cellular and network levels, and it is therefore possible to link the role of certain genes or molecules to motor behaviour in this system.
Abstract: The vertebrate motor system is equipped with a number of neuronal networks that underlie different patterns of behaviour, from simple protective reflexes to complex movements. The current challenge is to understand the intrinsic function of these networks: that is, the cellular basis of motor behaviour. In one vertebrate model system, the lamprey, it has been possible to make the connection between different subtypes of ion channels and transmitters and their roles at the cellular and network levels. It is therefore possible to link the role of certain genes or molecules to motor behaviour in this system.

TL;DR: A large majority of coronary patients do not achieve the guideline standards for secondary prevention with high prevalences of persistent smoking, unhealthy diets, physical inactivity and consequently most patients are overweight or obese with a high prevalence of diabetes.
