Enhancing the management of Gaucher disease patients through multidimensional risk assessment serves as a roadmap towards personalized medicine in the context of a rare disease.
Opioids have distributed effects on the brainstem circuitry that controls breathing, including presynaptic and postsynaptic receptor-mediated inhibition of an excitatory circuit from the dorsolateral pons to the ventrolateral medulla.
Efficiency measures the fundamental link between agonist binding and protein conformational change, and in nicotinic receptors has 5 values that calibrate energy changes in the induced fit that triggers activation.
