BACKGROUND: Low-molecular-weight heparins and heparinoids are anticoagulants that may be associated with lower risks of haemorrhage and more powerful antithrombotic effects than standard unfractionated heparin. This is an updated version …more
Isolated sulphite oxidase deficiency (ISOD) is a rare autosomal recessive inborn error of metabolism, which may present at birth with intractable seizures (often of prenatal onset) and severe neurological abnormalities. …more
5′-Fluorodeoxyadenosine synthase, a C-F bond-forming enzyme, has been purified from Streptomyces cattleya. The enzyme mediates a reaction between inorganic fluoride and S-adenosyl-L-methionine (SAM) to generate 5′-fluoro-5′-deoxy-adenosine. The molecular weight of …more
Streptomyces cattleya is unusual in that it produces fluoroacetate and 4-fluorothreonine as secondary metabolites. We now report the isolation of an NAD(+)-dependent fluoroacetaldehyde dehydrogenase from S. cattleya that mediates the …more
A synthetic route to isotopically labelled forms of the tropane alkaloid hyoscyamine, including (RS)-[3′,3′,-H-2(2)]- (2a) and (RS)-[1′-C-13,3′,3′,-H-2(2)]- (2b) hyoscyamines, involving the reaction between phenylacetyl tropine and formaldehyde is described. The …more
Everyday speech is littered with disfluency, often correlated with the production of less predictable words (e.g., Beattie & Butterworth [Beattie, G., & Butterworth, B. (1979). Contextual probability and word frequency …more
Activity in the left inferior prefrontal cortex (LIPC) is often thought to reflect processes that support episodic encoding. Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) was used to test whether processes subserved …more
AIM: To assess the effect of two iterative reconstruction algorithms (AIDR and AIDR3D) and individualized automatic tube current selection on radiation dose and image quality in computed tomography coronary angiography …more
To examine how judgments of learning (JOLs) are made, we used event-related potentials (ERPs) to compare neural correlates of JOLs and successful memory encoding. Participants saw word pairs, and for …more
This study aims to investigate the pharmacokinetics of a recently developed radiotracer for imaging of the norepinephrine transporter (NET) in baboon brain, (123)I-INER, using single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT). …more
In vivo imaging of adenosine 2A receptors (A2A) in the brain has attracted significant interest from the scientific community, because studies have shown that dysregulation of these receptors is implicated …more
