[Features of Clonal Micropropagation of Silene cretacea (Caryophyllaceae) in in vitro Culture].

The features of the formation of microshoots in in vitro culture of Silene cretacea—endangered species with narrow ecological amplitude, which is a promising source of medicinal raw materials—were studied. It was demonstrated that, at the micropropagation step, basic Woody Plant Medium containing vitamins according to Murashige and Skoog and supplemented with 0.2 mg/L 6-benzylaminopurine, 1.

Fever, confusion, acute kidney injury: is this atypical neuroleptic malignant syndrome following polypharmacy with clozapine and risperidone?

Objective: Clozapine is the gold-standard antipsychotic medication for treatment-refractory schizophrenia (TRS). However, one potentially lethal side effect of clozapine, as with other antipsychotics, is neuroleptic malignant syndrome (NMS) which could present differently in clozapine therapy. 'Atypical NMS' is a recognised variant of NMS with less rigidity and delayed elevation of creatine kinase; this variant is associated with clozapine.

Identification of a neurosteroid binding site contained within the GluR2-S1S2 domain.

Glutamate receptors play a major role in neural cell plasticity, growth, and maturation. The degree to which ionotropic glutamate receptors (iGluR) conduct current is dependent on binding of extracellular ligands, of which glutamate is the native agonist. Although the glutamate binding site of the GluR2 class of amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazolepropionic acid (AMPA) iGluR has been structurally characterized, the allosteric sites attributed to neurosteroid binding have yet to be localized.
