Conotoxin loaded dextran microgel particles alleviate effects of spinal cord in...
Zhao, X.; Jin, L.; Zhu, Z.; Lu, H.; Shi, H.; Zhong, Q.; Oliveira, J. M.; Reis, R. L.; Gao, C.; Zhengwei, M.Spinal cord injury (SCI) is a severe refractory disabling condition accompanied by complicated patholog- ical processes, such as excessive glutamate release in the extracellular environment and massive influx of Ca 2 + into cells. Dextran can absorb extracellular glutamate and Ca 2 + to attenuate persistent excita- tory processes that are detrimental to normal cells. Calcium channel inhibitors reduce the influx...
Effects of Sand Addition to Heavy Saline-Alkali Soil on the Infiltration and Sa...
Miao, Q.; Zhou, L.; Gonçalves, J.M.; Duarte, I.M.; Li, R.; Shi, H.Soil salinity is a matter of great economic and environmental implications. In Hetao Irrigation District, soil salinity limits crop productivity affecting about 69% of its total cultivated land due to natural soil salinisation and salt accumulation caused by irrigation. The goal of this study is to contribute to the alleviation of this problem through the technique of adding wind-sand to the top layer of heavy ...
