Influence of cholecystectomy on sphincter of Oddi motility (1997)
Journal Article
Luman, W., Williams, A. J. K., Pryde, A., Smith, G. D., Nixon, S. J., Heading, R. C., & Palmer, K. R. (1997). Influence of cholecystectomy on sphincter of Oddi motility. Gut, 41(3), 371-374. https://doi.org/10.1136/gut.41.3.371

Background—Gall bladder and sphincter of Oddi (SO) function are coordinated by hormonal and neuronal mechanisms. Nerve fibres pass between the gall bladder and the SO via the cystic duct. It is therefore possible that cholecystectomy may alter SO mot... Read More about Influence of cholecystectomy on sphincter of Oddi motility.

In Situ Hybridization and Reverse Transcription-Polymerase Chain Reaction Studies on the Expression of the GABAc Receptor ρ1- and ρ2-subunit Genes in Avian and Rat Brain (1997)
Journal Article

In Situ Hybridization and Reverse Transcription-Polymerase Chain Reaction Studies on the Expression of the GABAc Receptor ρ1- and ρ2-subunit Genes in Avian and Rat Brain. European Journal of Neuroscience, 9(11), 2414-2422. https://doi.org/10.1111/j.1460-9568.1997.tb01658.x

The pharmacological properties of homo-oligomeric channels formed by the GABA type A receptor-like ρl and ρ2 polypeptides are very reminiscent of those of the GABA type C receptors that have been extensively characterized in the retina. Similar recep...

Differential patterns of expression of two novel invertebrate (Lymnaea stagnalis) ionotropic glutamate receptor genes (1997)
Journal Article
Harvey, R. J., Stühmer, T., van Minnen, J., & Darlison, M. G. (1997). Differential patterns of expression of two novel invertebrate (Lymnaea stagnalis) ionotropic glutamate receptor genes. Neuroscience Research Communications, 20(1), 31-40. https://doi.org/10.1002/%28SICI%291520-6769%28199701%2920%3A13.0.CO%3B2-6

We report the isolation of molluscan (Lymnaea stagnalis) partial complementary DNAs (cDNAs) that encode two new putative glutamate-gated cation-channel polypeptides. These proteins, which we have named Lym-eGluR4 and Lym-eGluR5, exhibit 56% identity...
