We examined the possible universality of Spielberger's (1988) model of anger by validating a Russian State-Trait Anger Expression Inventory (STAXI). In Eckhardt, Kassinove, Tsytsarev, and Sukhodolsky (1995), support was found for all STAXI factors except anger-in, using students from St. Petersburg State University. In the present study, 346 students from Russian high schools and the Pavlov Medical School served as subjects. Using new items, we found strong support for the factor structure hypothesized by Spielberger. All scales showed good to excellent alphas, and there was substantial similarity of the current means with results from the earlier study. The Russian samples, however, showed a lower level of state anger. The data support the possibility that state anger consists of two subscales, a simple experience and an experience combined with an action tendency. Trait anger occurs as a general temperament or as a reaction to specific triggers. It is positively related to anger-out and negatively related to anger control. Future studies can use this instrument to evaluate the stability of anger in Russian speaking populations, and to assess anger experiences and expression in response to specific triggers. 相似文献

Dynamic light scattering (DLS) is often used to monitor aggregation in protein solutions. Here, we explore the veracity of the aggregate sizes, size distribution widths, concentrations, and lifetime resulting from DLS. We use as an example a solution of the protein lysozyme in which dense liquid clusters of radius about 100 nm reproducibly exist. We compare the results of DLS to those of brownian microscopy. We show that because of the sixth power dependence of the scattered light intensity on the size of the scatterers, DLS overestimates the mean size of the clusters. The factor of overestimation depends on the shape of the size distribution and is ~1.6 × in the studied solution. The related underestimate of the cluster concentration is ~10 ×. The CONTIN algorithm, often employed to process DLS data, may, in some instances, produce non-physical results. We put forth an alternative method to determine the aggregates' sizes, concentrations, and volume fractions. We show that DLS yields a reliable width of the cluster size distribution only if the cluster concentration is above 10(9) cm(-3) and their volume fraction is above 10(-6). DLS yields a lower bound of the cluster lifetime, which may be orders of magnitude lower than the real one. 相似文献

We present two comparative models of the GABA(A) receptor. Model 1 is based on the 4-A resolution structure of the nicotinic acetylcholine receptor from Torpedo marmorata and represents the unliganded receptor. Two agonists, GABA and muscimol, two benzodiazepines, flunitrazepam and alprazolam, together with the general anaesthetic halothane, have been docked to this model. The ion flow is also explored in model 1 by evaluating the interaction energy of a chloride ion as it traverses the extracellular, transmembrane and intracellular domains of the protein. Model 2 differs from model 1 only in the extracellular domain and represents the liganded receptor. Comparison between the two models not only allows us to explore commonalities and differences with comparative models of the nicotinic acetylcholine receptor, but also suggests possible protein sub-domain interactions with the GABA(A) receptor not previously addressed. 相似文献

The imaging of real‐time fluxes of K+ ions in live cell with high dynamic range (5–150 × 10?3m ) is of paramount importance for neuroscience and physiology of the gastrointestinal tract, kidney, and other tissues. In particular, the research on high‐performance deep‐red fluorescent nanoparticle‐based biosensors is highly anticipated. It is found that boron‐dipyrromethene (BODIPY)‐based K+‐sensitive fluoroionophore FI3 encapsulated in cationic polymer RL100 nanoparticles displays unusually strong efficiency in staining of broad spectrum of cell models, such as primary neurons and intestinal organoids. Using comparison of brightness, photostability, and fluorescence lifetime imaging microscopy, it is confirmed that FI3 nanoparticles display distinctively superior intracellular staining compared to the free dye. FI3 nanoparticles in real‐time live cell imaging are evaluated and it is found highly useful for monitoring intra‐ and extracellular K+ dynamics in cultured neurons. Proof‐of‐concept in vivo brain imaging confirms applicability of the biosensor for visualization of epileptic seizures. Collectively, these data make fluoroionophore FI3 a versatile cross‐platform fluorescent biosensor, broadly compatible with diverse experimental models, and crown‐ether‐based polymer nanoparticles can provide a new venue for the design of efficient fluorescent probes. 相似文献

Gap junctions (GJs) are intercellular junctions that allow the direct transfer of ions and small molecules between neighboring cells, and GJs between astrocytes play an important role in the development of various pathologies of the brain, including regulation of the pathological neuronal synchronization underlying epileptic seizures. Recently, we found that a pathological change is observed in astrocytes during the ictal and interictal phases of 4-aminopyridin (4-AP)-elicited epileptic activity in vitro, which was correlated with neuronal synchronization and extracellular epileptic electrical activity. This finding raises the question: Does this signal depend on GJs between astrocytes? In this study we investigated the effect of the GJ blocker, carbenoxolone (CBX), on epileptic activity in vitro and in vivo. Based on the results obtained, we came to the conclusion that the astrocytic syncytium formed by GJ-associated astrocytes, which is responsible for the regulation of potassium, affects the formation of epileptic activity in astrocytes in vitro and epileptic seizure onset. This effect is probably an important, but not the only, mechanism by which CBX suppresses epileptic activity. It is likely that the mechanisms of selective inhibition of GJs between astrocytes will show important translational benefits in anti-epileptic therapies. 相似文献
