Anandamide induces cardiorespiratory reflexes via vasosensory nerves in the anaesthetized rat. (2001)
Journal Article
Smith, P. J. W., Smith, P., & McQueen, D. S. (2001). Anandamide induces cardiorespiratory reflexes via vasosensory nerves in the anaesthetized rat. British Journal of Pharmacology, 134(3), 655-663. https://doi.org/10.1038/sj.bjp.0704296

We tested the hypothesis that sensory nerves innervating blood vessels play a role in the local and systemic regulation of the cardiovascular and respiratory (CVR) systems. We measured CVR reflexes evoked by administration of anandamide (86 – 863 nmo... Read More about Anandamide induces cardiorespiratory reflexes via vasosensory nerves in the anaesthetized rat..

Size-dependent proinflammatory effects of ultrafine polystyrene particles: a role for surface area and oxidative stress in the enhanced activity of ultrafines. (2001)
Journal Article
Brown, D. M., Wilson, M. R., MacNee, W., Stone, V., & Donaldson, K. (2001). Size-dependent proinflammatory effects of ultrafine polystyrene particles: a role for surface area and oxidative stress in the enhanced activity of ultrafines. Toxicology and Applied Pharmacology, 175(3), 191-199. https://doi.org/10.1006/taap.2001.9240

Studies into the effects of ultrafine particles in the lung have shown adverse effects considered to be due in part to the particle size. Air pollution particles (PM10) are associated with exacerbations of respiratory disease and deaths from cardiova...

Effects of active, passive or no warm-up on metabolism and performance during high-intensity exercise. (2001)
Journal Article
Nimmo, M., & Gray, S. (2001). Effects of active, passive or no warm-up on metabolism and performance during high-intensity exercise. Journal of Sports Sciences, 19(9), 693-700. https://doi.org/10.1080/02640410152475829

The aim of this study was to determine the influence of type of warm-up on metabolism and performance during high-intensity exercise. Eight males performed 30 s of intense exercise at 120% of their maximal power output followed, 1 min later, by a per...

Loss of Cell Cycle Checkpoint Control in Drosophila Rfc4 Mutants (2001)
Journal Article
Krause, S. A., Loupart, M.-L., Vass, S., Schoenfelder, S., Harrison, S., & Heck, M. M. S. (2001). Loss of Cell Cycle Checkpoint Control in Drosophila Rfc4 Mutants. Molecular and Cellular Biology, 21(15), 5156-5168. https://doi.org/10.1128/mcb.21.15.5156-5168.2001

Two alleles of the Drosophila melanogaster Rfc4(DmRfc4) gene, which encodes subunit 4 of the replication factor C (RFC) complex, cause striking defects in mitotic chromosome cohesion and condensation. These mutations produce larval phenotypes consist... Read More about Loss of Cell Cycle Checkpoint Control in Drosophila Rfc4 Mutants.

Sagittal joint kinematics, moments, and powers are predominantly characterized by speed of progression, not age, in normal children. (2001)
Journal Article
Stansfield, B., Hillman, S., Hazlewood, M., Lawson, A., Mann, A. M., Loudon, I. R., & Robb, J. E. (2001). Sagittal joint kinematics, moments, and powers are predominantly characterized by speed of progression, not age, in normal children. Journal of Pediatric Orthopaedics, 21, 403-411

Twenty-six healthy 7-year-old children were enrolled in a 5-year longitudinal study to examine the importance of age and speed in the characterization of sagittal joint angles, moments, and powers. In 740 gait trials, children walking at self-selecte...

A role for Drosophila SMC4 in the resolution of sister chromatids in mitosis (2001)
Journal Article
Steffensen, S., Coelho, P. A., Cobbe, N., Vass, S., Costa, M., Hassan, B., Prokopenko, S. N., Bellen, H., Heck, M. M. S., & Sunkel, C. E. (2001). A role for Drosophila SMC4 in the resolution of sister chromatids in mitosis. Current Biology, 11(5), 295-307. https://doi.org/10.1016/s0960-9822%2801%2900096-3

Background: Faithful segregation of the genome during mitosis requires interphase chromatin to be condensed into well-defined chromosomes. Chromosome condensation involves a multiprotein complex known as condensin that associates with chromatin early...
