Endogenous cannabinoids in amygdala and hippocampus in post-mortem brains of Cloninger type 1 and 2 alcoholics
(Elsevier BV, 2013)Accumulating evidence continues to link certain aspects of the endogenous cannabinoid (EC) system with alcohol dependence, negative-reinforcement learning, and the modulation of stress responses. Specific alterations in ... -
AMPA receptors in post-mortem brains of Cloninger type 1 and 2 alcoholics: A whole-hemisphere autoradiography study
(Elsevier BV, 2013)Dysfunction of the brain glutamate system has been associated with alcoholism. Ionotropic glutamatergic alpha-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methylisoxazole-4-propionic acid receptors (AMPARs) play an important role in both neurotransmission ... -
Effects of species-specific leaf characteristics and reduced water availability on fine particle capture efficiency of trees
(© Elsevier BV, 2013)Trees can improve air quality by capturing particles in their foliage. We determined the particle capture efficiencies of coniferous Pinus sylvestris and three broadleaved species: Betula pendula, Betula pubescens and Tilia ... -
