Cardiac N-methyl D-aspartate receptors as a pharmacological target
Full text linkThis study focuses on characterization of the cardiac N-methyl D-aspartate receptors (NMDARs) as a target for endogenous and synthetic agonists and antagonists. Using isolated perfused rat hearts, we have shown that intracoronary administration of the NMDAR agonists and antagonists has a pronounced effect on autonomous heart function. Perfusion of rat hearts with autologous blood supplemented with NMDAR agonists was associated with induction of tachycardia, sinus arrhythmia and ischemia occurring within physiological plasma concentration range for glutamate and glycine. Intracoronary administration of the NMDAR antagonists exerted an anti-arrhythmic effect and resulted in bradycardia and improvement of capillary perfusion. Action of antagonists eliprodil, Ro25-6981, memantine, ketamine, and MK-801 on autonomous heart function diverged strikingly from that of L-type Ca channel blockers. Cardiac NMDAR subunit composition differed from that of neuronal receptors and was age- and chamber-specific. Transcripts of the GluN3A and GluN2D were found in all heart chambers, whereas expression of GluN1 and GluN2A and 2C were restricted to the atria. Expression of the GluN2B protein in ventricles increased markedly with age of the animals. The obtained data reveal that NMDARs are expressed in rat heart contributing to the autonomic heart rate regulation and the function of the cardiac conduction system

From Foucauldian Biopower to Energopower and Infopower:An Interview with Dominic Boyer and Colin Koopman
No full textKirsten Hasberg talks to Dominic Boyer, anthropologist and author of Energopolitics: Wind and Power in the Anthroprocene, and to Colin Koopman, philosopher and author of How We Became our Data: A Genealogy of the Informational Person. Their books published in mid-2019 put forward novel conceptualizations of Foucauldian biopower, which they term infopower and energopower, respectively. Criss-crossing between philosophical conceptualizations and concrete problems like the struggles of renewable energy communities (Boyer) and the influence of economic thinking on datafication (Koopman), the conversations show how Foucauldian concepts are relevant to today's power struggles inherent to the energy transition and the digital transformation.Kirsten Hasberg talks to Dominic Boyer, anthropologist and author of Energopolitics: Wind and Power in the Anthroprocene, and to Colin Koopman, philosopher and author of How We Became our Data: A Genealogy of the Informational Person.
