Quantitative Compressibility Effects in Thermal Elastohydrodynamic Circular Contacts حسب Habchi, W.

"…The results reconfirm the well-known observations that minimum film thickness is very little affected by lubricant compressibility while central film thickness decreases linearly with the increase in volume compression of the lubricant. It is also observed that the relative errors on central film thicknesses induced by the use of the Dowson and Higginson relationship for compressibility increase with load and temperature and are very little affected by mean entrainment speed. …"

Subsarcolemmal cAMP signals monitored by cyclic nucleotide gated channels in hypertrophied cardiac myocytes حسب Abi-Gerges, Aniella

"…This channel is gated by cAMP and thus allow to follow cAMP dynamics by recording the associated cationic current (ICNG) with the whole cell patch clamp technique 24 h after infection. Cumulative concentrationresponse curve to the non-selective E-adrenergic agonist isoprenaline (Iso) indicated a 33% decrease of the maximal cAMP accumulation produced by Iso while the effect of the hydrosoluble forskolin analog, L-858051 at a saturating concentration (100 µM) was unchanged between the two groups. …"
