[Q]: Large concentrations of meperidine inhibit N-methyl-D-aspartate-(NMDA) receptor channels by channel block mechanisms. Extracellular pH regulates the activity and drug sensitivity of NMDA-receptor channels. We examined the influence of extracellular pH on sensitivity to meperidine of epsilon/zeta heteromeric NMDA-receptor channels expressed in Xenopus oocytes. Inhibition of epsilon1/zeta1, epsilon2/zeta1, epsilon3/zeta1, and epsilon4/zeta1 channels by meperidine was dependent on pH, with more inhibition at acidic pH and less inhibition at alkaline pH. The degree of voltage-dependence of meperidine block was only slightly affected by changes in pH, whereas affinity for meperidine was greatly reduced at alkaline pH. Furthermore, interaction of meperidine with Mg(2+) block was reduced at alkaline pH. Because the percentage of the protonated form of meperidine is only slightly affected by pH, changes in properties of the meperidine binding site may be involved in mechanisms of alteration of meperidine potency by pH.
[A]: Is n-methyl-D-aspartate receptor channel block by meperidine dependent on extracellular pH?

[Q]: To reach and grasp an object in space on the basis of its image cast on the retina requires different coordinate transformations that take into account gaze and limb positioning. Eye position in the orbit influences the image's conversion from retinotopic (eye-centered) coordinates to an egocentric frame necessary for guiding action. Neuroimaging studies have revealed eye position-dependent activity in extrastriate visual, parietal and frontal areas that is along the visuo-motor pathway. At the earliest vision stage, the role of the primary visual area (V1) in this process remains unclear. We used an experimental design based on pattern-onset visual evoked potentials (VEP) recordings to study the effect of eye position on V1 activity in humans.", 'We showed that the amplitude of the initial C1 component of VEP, acknowledged to originate in V1, was modulated by the eye position. We also established that putative spontaneous small saccades related to eccentric fixation, as well as retinal disparity cannot explain the effects of changing C1 amplitude of VEP in the present study.
[A]: Are early visual evoked potentials modulated by eye position in humans induced by whole body rotations?

[Q]: Although the major limitation to exercise performance in patients with COPD is dynamic hyperinflation, little is known about its relation to daily physical activity.', 'To analyze the contribution of dynamic hyperinflation, exercise tolerance, and airway oxidative stress to physical activity in patients with COPD.', 'In a cross-sectional study, we included 110 patients with moderate to very severe COPD. Daily physical activity was measured using a triaxial accelerometer providing a mean of 1-minute movement epochs as vector magnitude units (VMU). Patients performed the 6-minute walk test, incremental exercise test with measurement of breathing pattern and operating lung volumes, and constant-work rate test at 75% of maximal work rate.', 'Using the GOLD stage and BODE index, we determined arterial blood gases, lung volumes, diffusing capacity, and biomarkers in exhaled breath condensate. Daily physical activity was lower in the 89 patients who developed dynamic hyperinflation than in the 21 who did not (n =161 [SD 70] vs. n = 288 [SD 85] VMU; P = 0.001). Physical activity was mainly related to distance walked in 6 minutes (r = 0.72; P = 0.001), Vo(2) (r = 0.63; P = 0.001), change in end-expiratory lung volume during exercise (r = -0.73; P = 0.001), endurance time (r = 0.61; P = 0.001), and 8-isoprostane in exhaled breath condensate (r = -0.67; P = 0.001). In a multivariate linear regression analysis using VMU as a dependent variable, dynamic hyperinflation, change in end-expiratory lung volume, and distance walked in 6 minutes were retained in the prediction model (r(2) = 0.84; P = 0.001).
