Example Sentences:

(10) For this purpose the molecular models of Monod-Wyman-Changeux (MWC) and of Koshland-Nemethy-Filmer (KNF) are tested by showing how the different plots, direct, reciprocal, Scatchard and Hill, vary as do the parameters considered in these models.
(11) Some organization schemes concerning locomotor and scratching rhythmicity generators are considered, such as: two half-centres with reciprocal inhibitory connections and tonic excitatory influences on these half-centres: two half-centres with inhibitory-excitatory connections and tonic excitatory influences on one half-centre; ring structures consisting of more than two functional groups of neurons with excitatory and inhibitory connections between them.

(19) Since indoleaminergic cells make reciprocal synaptic connections with rod bipolar cell terminals, which are depolarizing in the rabbit retina, we hypothesize that 5-HT2 receptors facilitate the synaptic transmission from the depolarizing rod bipolar cell thus facilitating ON-excitation in the retinal network while 5-HT1A receptors mediate an inhibitory process.
(20) By the fourth injection, arachidonic acid had fallen 48% below control and was accompanied by reciprocal increases of more saturated fatty acids including linoleic (18:2), oleic (18:1) and palmitic (16:0) acids.
