Thermosensation and the TRPV channel in Rhodnius prolixus
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2015-10)
The thermal sense of triatomine bugs, vectors of Chagas disease, is unique among insects. Not only do these bugs exhibit the highest sensitivity to heat known in any animal up to date, but they can also perceive the infrared ...
On the doppler shifting effect in an atmospheric gravity wave spectrum
(Wiley, 2005-04)
The power spectrum evolution of a transient gravity wave disturbance propagating conservatively upwards in a shear flow is examined. It is proven that the wave action for a disturbance suffering Doppler shifting is invariant ...
Sex differences in the mechano-energetic effects of genistein on stunned rat and guinea pig hearts
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2016-01)
Although the phytoestrogen genistein (Gen) is considered protective in cardiovascular diseases, its direct effects on stunned hearts after transient ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) are unknown. This report studied the effects ...
Mating-induced differential coding of plant odour and sex pheromone in a male moth
(Federation of European Neuroscience Societies, 2011-05)
Innate behaviours in animals can be influenced by several factors, such as the environment, experience, or physiological status. This behavioural plasticity originates from changes in the underlying neuronal substrate. A ...
A computational study of some rheological influences on the ""splashing experiment""
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE BV, 2010)
In various attempts to relate the behaviour of highly-elastic liquids in complex flows to their rheometrical behaviour, obvious candidates for study have been the variation of shear viscosity with shear rate, the two normal ...
Statistical properties for a dissipative model of relativistic particles in a wave packet: A parameter space investigation
(Elsevier B.V., 2014-07-01)
Some statistical and dynamical properties for the problem of relativistic charged particles in a wave packet are studied. We show that the introduction of dissipation change the structure of the phase space and attractors ...
The internal resistance of supercapacitors
(Institute of Physics - IOP Bristol, 2012-07)
In this paper we study the transient behaviour of RC circuits with supercapacitors, varying R between 1 and 100 'ômega'. We demonstrate that supercapacitors behave as ideal capacitors in series with an internal resistance ...
Combined effect of the finasteride and doxazosin on rat ventral prostate morphology and physiology
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2010-06-01)
P>Finasteride (Fin) and Doxazosin (Dox), alone or in combination, have been widely used in treatment of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) symptoms and recently have been suggested as potential drugs for prostate cancer ...
Cholesterol modulates acetylcholine receptor diffusion by tuning confinement sojourns and nanocluster stability
(Nature Research, 2018)
Abstract: Translational motion of neurotransmitter receptors is key for determining receptor number at the synapse and hence, synaptic efficacy. We combine live-cell STORM superresolution microscopy of nicotinic acetylcholine ...
