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...

Effects of Nocturnal Shiftwork on Mood States of Student Nurses (1996)
Journal Article
Florida-james, G., Wallymahmed, A., & Reilly, T. (1996). Effects of Nocturnal Shiftwork on Mood States of Student Nurses. Chronobiology International, 13(1), 59-69. https://doi.org/10.3109/07420529609040842

Daily mood changes were monitored over successive 24-h periods using the Profile of Mood States (POMS) (3) to assess the effect of nocturnal shiftwork on mood. Twenty-three student nurses, age range 19-24 years, were studied throughout their first ex... Read More about Effects of Nocturnal Shiftwork on Mood States of Student Nurses.

Channel gating in the absence of agonist by a homooligomeric molluscan GABA receptor expressed inXenopus oocytes from a cloned cDNA. Invertebrate Neuroscience, 1(3), 267-272. https://doi.org/10.1007/bf02211028

We have previously described the isolation of a complementary DNA (cDNA) from the freshwater molluscLymnaea stagnalis encoding a polypeptide that exhibits ∼50{%} identity to the {ß}-subunits of vertebrate $γ$-aminobutyric acid (GABA) type A (GABAA) r...

We have amplified partial complementary {DNAs} for the chicken γ-aminobutyric acid type C (GABAC) receptor ρ1 and ρ2 subunits using the polymerase chain reaction. These nucleotide sequences have been utilized to design specific oligonucleotide probes...

Urban and rural fertility in Bangladesh: A causal approach (1994)
Journal Article

Fertility models are constructed from the 1989 Bangladesh Fertility Survey (BFS) employing path analysis. These models are developed and interpreted for urban and rural situations. As a proxy for fertility, the number of children ever born is used, a... Read More about Urban and rural fertility in Bangladesh: A causal approach.

Molecular Characterisation and Functional Expression of Molluscan Ion-Channel Receptors That Can Be Activated By Either γ-Aminobutyric Acid or L-Glutamate (1993)
Journal Article

Netherlands Journal of Zoology, 44(3), 473-485. https://doi.org/10.1163/156854293x00557

Ligand-gated ion channels (also called ionotropic receptors) are a class of receptors which possess an intrinsic ion pore, selective for either cations or anions, that can be opened by the binding of an appropriate neurotransmitter. Ionotropic recept... Read More about Molecular Characterisation and Functional Expression of Molluscan Ion-Channel Receptors That Can Be Activated By Either γ-Aminobutyric Acid or L-Glutamate.

Acute hypotension due to platelet serotonin-induced chemoreflexes after intravenous injection of dextran sulfate in the rabbit (1985)
Journal Article

The hypotension and bradycardia observed after intravenous injection of dextran sulfate in rabbits was prevented by prior depletion of circulating platelets, but was not prevented by depletion of the third component of complement or Hageman factor. D... Read More about Acute hypotension due to platelet serotonin-induced chemoreflexes after intravenous injection of dextran sulfate in the rabbit.
