In this review, Keith Bley, John Hunter, Richard Eglen and Jacqueline Smith compare the roles of EP and IP receptors in nociception and suggest that the IP receptor constitutes a novel target for anti-nociceptive agents. | |||||||||||||||

The effects of the pro-opiomelanocortin-derived beta-endorphin (B-EP) and the opioid antagonist naloxone on in vitro secretion (accumulation of testosterone (T) in the medium) of T by testicular cells were assessed in adult white-footed mice (Peromyscus leucopus). | |||||||||||||||
| |||||||||||||||
|
The role of their receptors (EP and IP, respectively) in inflammation has been well documented, although the EP receptor subtypes involved in this process and the underlying cellular mechanisms remain to be elucidated. | |||||||||||||||
| |||||||||||||||
|
Further analysis of ECG signals recorded during electrochemotherapy was performed to estimate the effect of EP pulse delivery on ECG. | |||||||||||||||
| |||||||||||||||
|
For evaluation of the effects of EP pulse delivery on functioning of the heart we calculated the average values of RR interval, QRS interval, QTc interval, QRS area and R wave amplitude before and after the application of EP pulses. | |||||||||||||||
| |||||||||||||||
|
The main purpose of this study was therefore to investigate the possible effects of EP pulses on functioning of the heart and to address the relevance of synchronization of EP pulse delivery with ECG. | |||||||||||||||
| |||||||||||||||
|
Based on these scores and in the absence of any standard performance metrics for EP pulse delivery, we calculated the performance measures analogous to QRS detection metrics: the sensitivity (Sep), the positive predictivity (+Pp) and the delivery error rate (DERp) for EP pulses. | |||||||||||||||
| |||||||||||||||
|
The performance of our algorithm for QRS detection and EP pulse delivery has previously been evaluated on ECG signals from a standard LTST DB database [30]. | |||||||||||||||
| |||||||||||||||
|
It is possible that cumulus cell expression of EP receptors changes in response to the midcycle LH surge, which may explain discrepancies between these studies. | |||||||||||||||
