TL;DR: The role of mitochondria in the delayed outcomes of ionization radiation is discussed, and different types of radiation vary in their linear energy transfer (LET) properties, and their effects on various aspects of mitochondrial physiology are discussed.

TL;DR: It is shown that after administration of MPTP to mice, there was a robust gliosis in the substantia nigra pars compacta associated with significant upregulation of inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS), which indicates that inhibitors of iNOS may provide protective benefit in the treatment of Parkinson disease.
Abstract: MPTP (1-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine) damages dopaminergic neurons as seen in Parkinson disease. Here we show that after administration of MPTP to mice, there was a robust gliosis in the substantia nigra pars compacta associated with significant upregulation of inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS). These changes preceded or paralleled MPTP-induced dopaminergic neurodegeneration. We also show that mutant mice lacking the iNOS gene were significantly more resistant to MPTP than their wild-type littermates. This study demonstrates that iNOS is important in the MPTP neurotoxic process and indicates that inhibitors of iNOS may provide protective benefit in the treatment of Parkinson disease.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that the delivery of H2S at the time of reperfusion limits infarct size and preserves left ventricular (LV) function in an in vivo model of myocardial ischemia-reperfusion (MI-R) and that either administration of H 2S or the modulation of endogenous production may be of clinical benefit in ischemic disorders.
Abstract: The recent discovery that hydrogen sulfide (H2S) is an endogenously produced gaseous second messenger capable of modulating many physiological processes, much like nitric oxide, prompted us to investigate the potential of H2S as a cardioprotective agent. In the current study, we demonstrate that the delivery of H2S at the time of reperfusion limits infarct size and preserves left ventricular (LV) function in an in vivo model of myocardial ischemia-reperfusion (MI-R). This observed cytoprotection is associated with an inhibition of myocardial inflammation and a preservation of both mitochondrial structure and function after I-R injury. Additionally, we show that modulation of endogenously produced H2S by cardiac-specific overexpression of cystathionine γ-lyase (α-MHC-CGL-Tg mouse) significantly limits the extent of injury. These findings demonstrate that H2S may be of value in cytoprotection during the evolution of myocardial infarction and that either administration of H2S or the modulation of endogenous production may be of clinical benefit in ischemic disorders.

TL;DR: Meta-analytic techniques were used to examine level of analysis and interdependence as moderators of observed relationships between task-specific team-efficacy, generalized potency, and performance and demonstrated that relationships are moderated bylevel of analysis.
Abstract: Meta-analytic techniques were used to examine level of analysis and interdependence as moderators of observed relationships between task-specific team-efficacy, generalized potency, and performance. Sixty-seven empirical studies yielding 256 effect sizes were identified and meta-analyzed. Results demonstrated that relationships are moderated by level of analysis. Effect sizes were stronger at the team level (p = .39) than at the individual level (p = .20). At the team level, both team-efficacy and potency had positive relationships with performance (ps = .41 and .37, respectively). Interdependence significantly moderated the relationship between team-efficacy and performance, but not between potency and performance. The relationship between team-efficacy and performance was stronger when interdependence was high (p = .45) than when it was low (p = .34).

TL;DR: Evidence is provided that decreases in muscle content of malonyl-CoA can increase the rate of fatty acid oxidation, and perfusion with medium containing AICAR was found to activate AMPK in skeletal muscle, inactivate ACC, and decrease malony l-coA.
Abstract: 5-Aminoimidazole-4-carboxamide ribonucleoside (AICAR) has previously been reported to be taken up into cells and phosphorylated to form ZMP, an analog of 5′-AMP This study was designed to determin
