From individual to population: the minimum alveolar concentration curveJames P Dilger
Department of Anesthesiology, Stony Brook University, Stony Brook, New York 11794 8480, USA
Curr Opin Anaesthesiol 19:390-6. 2006..This review examines hypotheses about the shape of the minimum alveolar concentration curve, and recent theoretical and experimental approaches to the question...
Roles of amino acids and subunits in determining the inhibition of nicotinic acetylcholine receptors by competitive antagonistsJames P Dilger
Department of Anesthesiology, Stony Brook University, NY 11794 8480, USA, and Department of Anesthesiology, Surugadai Nihon University Hospital, Kanda, Tokyo, Japan
Anesthesiology 106:1186-95. 2007..To test the generality of this observation, the authors measured current inhibition by five competitive antagonists on wild-type and mutant acetylcholine receptors...
Monte Carlo simulation of buffered diffusion into and out of a model synapseJames P Dilger
Department of Anesthesiology, Stony Brook University, Stony Brook, New York, USA
Biophys J 98:959-67. 2010..These simulations identify characteristics that can be used to test whether a synaptic process is governed by buffered diffusion. They also indicate that fundamental differences in synapse function may occur with irreversible ligands...
Site selectivity of competitive antagonists for the mouse adult muscle nicotinic acetylcholine receptorMan Liu
Department of Anesthesiology, Stony Brook University, Stony Brook, NY 11790 8480, USA
Mol Pharmacol 75:166-73. 2009....
Synergy between pairs of competitive antagonists at adult human muscle acetylcholine receptorsMan Liu
Department of Anesthesiology, Stony Brook University, Stony Brook, NY 11790, USA
Anesth Analg 107:525-33. 2008..The mechanism for synergy has not been elucidated. We tested the hypothesis that synergy arises from a differential selectivity of antagonists for the two ligand binding sites on adult human nAChR...
The kinetics of competitive antagonism of nicotinic acetylcholine receptors at physiological temperatureDeeptankar Demazumder
Department of Medicine, University of Virginia Health System, Charlottesville, VA, USA
J Physiol 586:951-63. 2008..Differences in ligand desolvation and ligand conformation are not likely to be important...

- Kinetics of Ligand Binding to Synaptic Ion ChannelsJAMES DILGER; Fiscal Year: 2006..4. Use isothermal titration calorimetry to measure the thermodynamics of ligand binding to acetylcholine binding protein - a water soluble protein whose structure is being used as a template for the acetylcholine receptor. ..
