Ionotropic Glutamate Receptors and Voltage-Gated Ca2+ Channels in Long-Term Potentiation of Spinal Dorsal Horn Synapses and Pain Hypersensitivity by Dong-ho Youn, Gábor Gerber, William A. Sather

“…Mechanisms that underlie LTP of spinal DH neurons include changes in the numbers, activity, and properties of ionotropic glutamate receptors (AMPA and NMDA receptors) and of voltage-gated Ca2+ channels. Here, we review the roles and mechanisms of these channels in the induction and expression of spinal DH LTP, and we present this within the framework of the anatomical organization and synaptic circuitry of the spinal DH. …”

Cordycepin Decreases Compound Action Potential Conduction of Frog Sciatic Nerve In Vitro Involving Ca2+-Dependent Mechanisms by Li-Hua Yao, Hui-Min Yu, Qiu-Ping Xiong, Wei Sun, Yan-Liang Xu, Wei Meng, Yu-Ping Li, Xin-Ping Liu, Chun-Hua Yuan

“…However, the depressive action of cordycepin on amplitude and conductive velocity was not observed in Ca2+-free medium or in the presence of Ca2+ channel blockers (CdCl2/LaCl3). Pretreatment with L-type Ca2+ channel antagonist (nifedipine/deltiazem) also blocked cordycepin-induced responses; by contrast, T-type and P-type Ca2+ channel antagonists (Ni2+) failed to block such responses. …”

Research on accurate ranging of UWB under indoor environments by WU Shao-hua, ZHANG Nai-tong

“…The accurate ranging ability of ultra wideband（UWB） signal under IEEE 802.15.4a indoor channel model was studied.An improved time-of-arrival（TOA） estimation algorithm which utilizes region search and threshold comparison was proposed.By statistical analysis on certain characteristics of the CM1 and CM2 channel profiles,the probability model of TOA estimation error was deduced.The thresholds of the proposed TOA estimation algorithm were then set by limiting the error probability to the lowest level.The mean absolute ranging errors under different SNR were simulated.Results show that high enough SNR should be guaranteed in order to obtain centimeter-level ranging precision under in-door environments,while extremely high SNR would not help to improve the ranging precision any more but lead to a performance floor.The results have instructional significance on designing localization algorithms and transmission power control in practical ranging.…”
