(2005-11-11)
recognition domains and signal sequences resulted in the identification of six previously uncharacterised cell wall-associated proteins. The novel proteins were designated SesB, C, E, G, H and 1, as for "Staphylococcus epidermidis surface protein". Other...
The functional role of the lateral olivocochlear system and mechanisms underlying sound condtioning
(2004-10-29)
conditioning paradigm at 1 kHz.
Since pretreatment with 6hydroxydopamine blocked the protective effect of sound conditioning by destroying tyrosine hydroxylase (TH) in the cochlea, a role of the lateral efferent system was suggested. TH positive nerve fibers...
