Summary The water layers interspacing between the phospholipid membranes of a multilamellar vesicle are 3–10 water layers across and their width is adjusted by osmotic pressure (Parsegian, V.A., et al., 1986.Methods Enzymol.
127:400–416).In these thin water layers we dissolved pyranine (8 hydroxypyrene 1,3,6 trisulfonate), a compound which, upon photo excitation, ejects it hydroxy proton with time constant of 100 psec. (Gutman, M. 1986.Methods Enzymol.
127:522–538).In the present study we investigated how the width of the aqueous layer, the density of phosphomoieties on the membrane's surface and the activity of water in the layer affect the capacity of protons to diffuse out from the electrostatic cage of the excited anion before it decays to the ground state.Using a combination of steady-state and subnanosecond time-resolved fluorescence measurements we determined the average number of proton excited-anion recombinations before the proton escapes from the Coulomb cage.The probability of recombination in thin water layer is significantly higher than in bulk. The factor contributing most to enhancement of recombination is the diminished water activity of the thin aqueous layer.The time frame for proton escape from an electrostatic trap as big as a membrane-bound protein is 3 orders of magnitude shorter than turnover time of membrane-bound enzymes. Thus the effects of local forces on proton diffusion, at the time scale of physiological processes, is negligible. 相似文献

Clinical diagnosis of disorders of consciousness (DOC) caused by brain injury poses great challenges since patients are often behaviorally unresponsive. A promising new approach towards objective DOC diagnosis may be offered by the analysis of ultra-slow (<0.1 Hz) spontaneous brain activity fluctuations measured with functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) during the resting-state. Previous work has shown reduced functional connectivity within the "default network", a subset of regions known to be deactivated during engaging tasks, which correlated with the degree of consciousness impairment. However, it remains unclear whether the breakdown of connectivity is restricted to the "default network", and to what degree changes in functional connectivity can be observed at the single subject level. Here, we analyzed resting-state inter-hemispheric connectivity in three homotopic regions of interest, which could reliably be identified based on distinct anatomical landmarks, and were part of the "Extrinsic" (externally oriented, task positive) network (pre- and postcentral gyrus, and intraparietal sulcus). Resting-state fMRI data were acquired for a group of 11 healthy subjects and 8 DOC patients. At the group level, our results indicate decreased inter-hemispheric functional connectivity in subjects with impaired awareness as compared to subjects with intact awareness. Individual connectivity scores significantly correlated with the degree of consciousness. Furthermore, a single-case statistic indicated a significant deviation from the healthy sample in 5/8 patients. Importantly, of the three patients whose connectivity indices were comparable to the healthy sample, one was diagnosed as locked-in. Taken together, our results further highlight the clinical potential of resting-state connectivity analysis and might guide the way towards a connectivity measure complementing existing DOC diagnosis. 相似文献

Pathological gambling (PG) shares clinical characteristics with substance-use disorders and is thus discussed as a behavioral addiction. Recent neuroimaging studies on PG report functional changes in prefrontal structures and the mesolimbic reward system. While an imbalance between these structures has been related to addictive behavior, whether their dysfunction in PG is reflected in the interaction between them remains unclear. We addressed this question using functional connectivity resting-state fMRI in male subjects with PG and controls. Seed-based functional connectivity was computed using two regions-of-interest, based on the results of a previous voxel-based morphometry study, located in the prefrontal cortex and the mesolimbic reward system (right middle frontal gyrus and right ventral striatum). PG patients demonstrated increased connectivity from the right middle frontal gyrus to the right striatum as compared to controls, which was also positively correlated with nonplanning aspect of impulsiveness, smoking and craving scores in the PG group. Moreover, PG patients demonstrated decreased connectivity from the right middle frontal gyrus to other prefrontal areas as compared to controls. The right ventral striatum demonstrated increased connectivity to the right superior and middle frontal gyrus and left cerebellum in PG patients as compared to controls. The increased connectivity to the cerebellum was positively correlated with smoking in the PG group. Our results provide further evidence for alterations in functional connectivity in PG with increased connectivity between prefrontal regions and the reward system, similar to connectivity changes reported in substance use disorder. 相似文献
