The Use of a Nasal Resistance Valve to Treat Sleep Disordered Breathing
The present pilot study tests the hypothesis that the application of expiratory resistance via a nasal valve device would improve breathing during sleep in subjects with OSA and in primary…

Callosal Compromise Differentially Affects Conflict Processing and Attentional Allocation in Alcoholism, HIV, and Their Comorbidity
Diffusion tensor imaging was used to study the combined effects of HIV-infection and alcoholism (ALC) on corpus callosum (CC) integrity in relation to processes of attentional allocation and conflict resolution…

Effects of Saporin-Induced Lesions of Three Arousal Populations on Daily Levels of Sleep and Wake
Here, we directly test this hypothesis by a simultaneous triple lesion of these neurons using three saporin-conjugated neurotoxins.

Anti-Nociceptive and Anti-Allodynic Effects of a High Affinity NOP Hexapeptide [Ac-RY(3-Cl)YRWR-NH2] (Syn 1020) in Rodents
Syn 1020, a NOP receptor directed peptide, administered systemically has anti-nociceptive activity in both acute and chronic pain models in mice and rats respectively.

SR 16435 [1-(1-(Bicyclo[3.3.1]nonan-9-yl)piperidin-4-yl)indolin-2-one], a Novel Mixed Nociceptin/Orphanin FQ/μ-Opioid Receptor Partial Agonist: Analgesic and Rewarding Properties in Mice
We identified a novel nociceptin/orphanin FQ (NOP)/μ-opioid receptor agonist, SR 16435 [1-(1-(bicyclo[3.3.1]nonan-9-yl)piperidin-4-yl)indolin-2-one], with high binding affinity and partial agonist activity at both receptors.
