Carbachol- and ACPD-Induced Phosphoinositide Responses in the Developing Rat Neocortex
… trans-1-amino-1,3-cyclopentanedicarboxylic acid (ACPD) were used to stimulate PI turnover. The PI responses were compared to the distribution of the corresponding PI-linked receptors in order to investigate the regional ontogeny of PI coupling to receptors in relation to neural development. The …

Accurate characterisation of surface fatigue cracks (in steels) using the AC potential drop NDT technique
… the development of an AC potential drop (ACPD) system as a non-destructive testing (NDT) technique for flaw detection and sizing of variously shaped and oriented surface breaking fatigue cracks. The ACPD method was reviewed to establish its viability as an NDT technique, and to understand …

Electromagnetic methods for measuring material properties of cylindrical rods and array probes for rapid flaw inspection
… changes in alternating current potential drop (ACPD) along a rod. In order to evaluate case depth of case hardened steel rods, analytical expressions are derived for the alternating current potential drop on the surface of a homogeneous rod, a two-layered and a three-layered rod. By fitting …

Neuromodulation of Inhibitory Activity in Thalamocortical Circuits
… upon their response to mGluR activation. In ACPD-positive neurons (F2 + F1 activity) mIPSCs have larger rise times and half-widths compared to those in ACPD-negative neurons (F1 only) as well as VB neurons. These results suggest that dendritic output might provide functionally distinct …

The development of condition monitoring strategies and techniques appropriate to mechanical structures.
… the trial Alternating Current Potential Drop (ACPD) was used to detect any growth as it occurred. Such techniques were used to substantiate claims AE could detect a propagating defect. When the AE is viewed in conjunction with ACPD results and the measurements attained with the ToFD it was …

Environment sensitive fracture of AI-Zn-Mg welds under cyclic loading conditions
… crack propagation mechanism with the ACPD technique providing evidence of cracking initiating ahead of the crack tip, remote from the environment , with subsequent growth there and link up with the original crack. Such a model is consistent with indirect evidence that hydrogen …

Experimental and modelling studies of pit-to-crack transition under corrosion fatigue conditions
… 120°C. An alternating current potential drop (ACPD) system was developed and used to detect crack initiation from an existing pit and thus the incubation time to pit-to-crack transition was experimentally obtained. An autoclave system was built in order to apply the desired corrosive …

Papel das reservas intracelulares de cálcio no efeito de aminoácidos excitatórios sobre a fosforilação da proteína ácida fibrilar glial (GFAP) em hipocampo de ratos jovens
… do agonista glutamatérgico metabotrópico 1S,3R-ACPD sobre a fosforilação da proteína e este efeito da cafeína é inibido por dantrolene (antagonista de RyRs). Talvez o Ca2+ oriundo das reservas reguladas por RyRs tenha o mesmo papel do Ca2+ proveniente do espaço extracelular, ou seja, desencadeia …
