A recent study reported a model of the human A(1) adenosine receptor and its agonist binding site, proposing two putative binding modes in the same binding site for the natural agonist, adenosine. The present work investigates the flexibility of this binding site by exhaustive exploration with the n

Tetanus toxin (TeTx) causes sympathetic hyperactivity, a major cause of mortality in generalized tetanus, apparently by obstructing the inhibition of sympathetic preganglionic neurons (SPNs). Neuroanatomic tracing and immunohistochemistry were used to investigate whether axon terminals in the interm

## Abstract To understand the molecular basis of nervous system function in the leech, __Hirudo medicinalis__, we have isolated four novel cDNAs encoding putative voltage‐gated sodium (Na) channel α subunits, and have analyzed the expression of these genes in individual neurons of known function. T
