Role of spinal cord alpha-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazolepropionic acid receptors in complete Freund's adjuvant-induced inflammatory pain (2008)

Park, Jang-Su, Yaster, Myron, Guan, Xiaowei, Xu, Ji-Tian, Shih, Ming-Hung, Guan, Yun, ...

Abstract Spinal cord α-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazolepropionic acid receptors (AMPARs) mediate acute spinal processing of nociceptive and non-nociceptive information, but whether and how their...

Distinct expression of synaptic NR2A and NR2B in the central nervous system and impaired morphine tolerance and physical dependence in mice deficient in postsynaptic density-93 protein (2008)

Liaw, Wen-Jinn, Zhu, Xu-Guang, Yaster, Myron, Johns, Roger A, Gauda, Estelle B, Tao, Yuan-Xiang

Abstract Postsynaptic density (PSD)-93, a neuronal scaffolding protein, binds to and clusters N -methyl-D-aspartate receptor (NMDAR) subunits NR2A and NR2B at cellular membranes in vitro . However,...

Pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of fenoldopam mesylate for blood pressure control in pediatric patients (2008)

Hammer, Gregory B, Verghese, Susan T, Drover, David R, Yaster, Myron, Tobin, Joseph R

Abstract Background Fenoldopam mesylate, a selective dopamine1-receptor agonist, is used by intravenous infusion to treat hypertension in adults. Fenoldopam is not approved by the FDA for use in...

Genetic knockout and pharmacologic inhibition of neuronal nitric oxide synthase attenuate nerve injury-induced mechanical hypersensitivity in mice (2007)

Guan, Yun, Yaster, Myron, Raja, Srinivasa N, Tao, Yuan-Xiang

Abstract Neuronal nitric oxide synthase (nNOS) is a key enzyme for nitric oxide production in neuronal tissues and contributes to the spinal central sensitization in inflammatory pain. However, the...
