Nmp-7 Inhibits Chronic Inflammatory And Neuropathic Pain Via Block Of Cab3.2 T-Type Calcium Channels And Activation Of Cb2 Receptors, N. Daniel Berger, Vinicius M. Gadotti, Ravil R. Petrov, Kevin Chapman, Philippe Diaz, Gerald W. Zamponi

Biological Sciences Faculty Publications

Background: T-type calcium channels and cannabinoid receptors are known to play important roles in chronic pain, making them attractive therapeutic targets. We recently reported on the design, synthesis and analgesic properties of a novel T-type channel inhibitor (NMP-7), which also shows mixed agonist activity on CB₁ and CB₂ receptors in vitro. Here, we analyzed the analgesic effect of systemically delivered NMP-7 (intraperitoneal (i.p.) or intragstric (i.g.) routes) on mechanical hypersensitivity in inflammatory pain induced by Complete Freund’s Adjuvant (CFA) and neuropathic pain induced by sciatic nerve injury.

Results: NMP-7 delivered by either i.p. or i.g. routes produced …

Hageman, Carol H. Pullen, Melody A. Hertzog, Linda Boeckner

Vonnegut took the bombing of Dresden and make it present and relevant in the minds of young Americans during the Vietnam War. Readers made connections between the two horrific events. In our contemporary world, Slaughterhouse-Five still remains an important work of literature. Violent conflicts and horrors continue to happen as with the recent Iraq War.

Q-Muse: A Quantum Computer Music System Designed For A Performance For Orchestra, Electronics And Live Internet-Connected Photonic Quantum Computer, A Kirke, P Shadbolt, A Neville, A Antoine, E Miranda

School of Art, Design and Architecture

Quantum computing is a form of unconventional computation utilizing quantum effects as a fundamental part of its calculations. It has already been used in practical signal encryption in the 2010 Soccer World Cup, and there is competition amongst many governments to build more powerful and practical quantum computers. Although quantum computing is the most widespread and invested in form of unconventional computation, there have been no implementations of artistic systems with live hardware quantum computers. Furthermore there is a vast gap between public understanding of classical digital computing and of quantum computing. Q-Muse is a quantum computer music system design …

The Evolution Of Judicial Power: How The Supreme Court Effectively Legalized Rape On Indian Reservations, Clara Martinez

Quercus: Linfield Journal of Undergraduate Research

According to the 2010 National Intimate Partner and Sexual Violence Survey, nearly one in five women in the United States have experienced sexual violence. While the statistics are staggering, the rate of sexual assault on Indian reservations is more than twice the national average. According to the Department of Justice, one in three American Indian and Alaska Native women have been raped or have experienced an attempted rape during their lifetime. Moreover, the primary assailants are males who are not members of tribal communities. Why has rape, perpetrated by non-Indian males, become effectively legalized on reservations? What explains tribal courts’ …
