Bowers B, Collins A, Wehner J
Addict Biol . 2010 Jun; 5(1):47-58. PMID: 20575819
The role of γ-PKC in initial sensitivity and in the development of rapid tolerance to the hypothermic effects of ethanol were investigated in γ-PKC null mutant mice. Effects of the...

Adams C, Yonchek J, Zheng L, Collins A, Stevens K
Brain Res . 2008 Jan; 1194:138-45. PMID: 18199426
The alpha7 subtype of nicotinic receptor is highly expressed in the hippocampus where it is purported to modulate release of the inhibitory neurotransmitter gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA). The alpha7 receptor-mediated release...

Collins A, Ashenafi M, Saunders A, Byrnes W
Cell Mol Biol (Noisy-le-grand) . 2007 May; 53(3):74-9. PMID: 17531152
Discovered in the 1940s by Selman Waksman, the aminoglycoside antibiotic streptomycin is clinically important in the treatment of tuberculosis worldwide. However, strains of Mycobacterium tuberculosis and other pathogenic bacteria have...

Damaj M, Fonck C, Marks M, Deshpande P, Labarca C, Lester H, et al.
J Pharmacol Exp Ther . 2007 Mar; 321(3):1161-9. PMID: 17371806
The effects of nicotine on the tail-flick and hot-plate tests were determined to identify nicotinic receptor subtypes responsible for spinally and supraspinally mediated nicotine analgesia in knockin mice expressing hypersensitive...

Collins A
Am J Phys Anthropol . 2004 Jul; 124(4):285-96. PMID: 15252858
This research examines phylogenetic relationships between members of the Atelinae subfamily (Alouatta, Ateles, Brachyteles, and Lagothrix), based on analysis of three genetic regions. Two loci, cytochrome c oxidase subunit II...

Adams C, Stitzel J, Collins A, Freedman R
Brain Res . 2001 Dec; 922(2):180-90. PMID: 11743948
C3H and DBA/2 mice differ in their hippocampal inhibitory function, as measured by the inhibitory gating of pyramidal neuron response to repeated auditory stimulation. This functional difference appears to be...

Collins A, Vincent J, Newall R, Mitchell K, Viberti G
Diabet Med . 2001 Nov; 18(11):928-32. PMID: 11703439
Aims: To compare the performance of the DCA2000 microalbuminuria system for albumin and creatinine concentrations and the albumin:creatinine ratio (ACR) with laboratory measurements in the hospital diabetes clinic and to...

Tritto T, Marley R, Bastidas D, Stitzel J, Collins A
Alcohol . 2001 Aug; 24(2):69-78. PMID: 11522425
A restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) associated with a major nicotinic receptor subunit (i.e., alpha4) has been identified in two mouse lines that were selectively bred for differences in sensitivity...

Stevens K, Bullock A, Collins A
Pharmacol Biochem Behav . 2001 Aug; 69(3-4):359-66. PMID: 11509192
Two methods of evaluating inhibitory sensory processing are prepulse inhibition of acoustic startle (PPI) and gating of auditory evoked potentials. Studies using both methods suggest nicotinic acetylcholinergic receptor modulation of...

Stitzel J, Dobelis P, Jimenez M, Collins A
Pharmacogenetics . 2001 Jul; 11(4):331-9. PMID: 11434511
In a recent study, we reported that a restriction fragment length polymorphism associated with the alpha4 nicotinic receptor gene (Chrna4) may play a role in regulating differential sensitivity of LS...
