Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titlePreventing Injuries Via Innovative Investigations: Reviewing Dangerous Driving Research MethodsChris S. Dula, Russell Fox, Ashley Dickson et al.Dangerous driving behavior is particularly difficult to study for many reasons. Researchers must be creative to capture meaningful data, but innovative techniques often meet with problems that might be solved through the broader use by others. The researchers generally lack a central location from which to review and choose from past methods. This article reviews the techniques used to study … …Current Research in Psychology, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 16 Jul 2012 · 7,287 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleEarly Cellular Responses of Purine Nucleoside-mediated Protection of Hypoxia-induced Injuries of Neuronal PC12 CellsBettina Tomaselli, Valerie Podhraski, Günther Böck, Gabriele Baier-BitterlichHypoxia in brain may lead to cell death by apoptosis and necrosis. In parallel adenosine, a powerful endogenous neuroprotectant is formed. We wanted to investigate the effect of adenosine and its purine nucleoside relatives, inosine and guanosine on early cellular responses to hypoxia. O2-sensitive neuronal PC12-cells were subjected to chemical hypoxia induced with rotenone, an inhibitor of mitochondrial complex I. … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 1, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2005 · 6,858 accessesView PDFCite
