Significance of multiple neurochemicals that regulate respiration
Current efforts to characterize the neuronal mechanisms that underlie automatic breathing generally adopt a âminimalistâ approach. In this review, we survey three of the many neurochemicals that are known to be present in rapheneurons and may be involved in respiration. Specifically, we ask the question, âIs the minimalist approach consistent with the large number of neuronal types and neurochemicals found in respiratory centres?â6 page(s
Structural and functional characterisation of salivary glycans from bloodfeeding arthropods
Oded Schramm (1961-2008) influenced greatly the development of percolation
theory beyond the usual setting; in particular, the case of
nonamenable lattices. Here, we review some of his work in this field.Comment: Published in at http://dx.doi.org/10.1214/10-AOP563 the Annals of
