Integrated biomimetic carbon nanotube composites for in vivo systems
Singh, Manoj Kumar; Gracio, Jose; LeDuc, Philip; Gonçalves, Paula P.; Marques, Paula A. A. P.; Gonçalves, Gil; Marques, Filipa; Silva, Virgilia S.As interest in using carbon nanotubes for developing biologically compatible systems continues to grow, biological inspiration is stimulating new directions for in vivo approaches. The ability to integrate nanotechnology-based systems in the body will provide greater successes if the implanted material is made to mimic elements of the biological milieu especially through tuning physical and chemical characteris...
Acetylcholine release and choline uptake by cuttlefish (Sepia officinalis) opti...
Nunes, M. Alexandra; Santos, Sofia; Cordeiro, J. Miguel; Neves, Paulo; Silva, Virgilia S.; Sykes, Antonio; Morgado, Fernando; Dunant, YvesAcetylcholine (ACh), which is synthesized from choline (Ch), is believed to hold a central place in signaling mechanisms within the central nervous system (CNS) of cuttlefish (Sepia officinalis) and other coleoid cephalopods. Although the main elements required for cholinergic function have been identified in cephalopods, the transmembrane translocation events promoting the release of ACh and the uptake of Ch r...
