Light - Much More Than Vision
A brief overview of the impact of light on the circadian system is given, which underscores the importance of developing a framework for circadian photometry. The amount of light, its spectral composition, spatial distribution, timing and duration needed for vision is so different from that needed for circadian functioning, that generalizations about “good lighting” will have to be assessed by ...
متن کاملMuch more than cigarette smoking
The human condition made fragile by fear of death, by affective distress, by diseases, and by aging compels human beings to search for pleasure. The use of licit or illicit drugs is a good example of this fact. Often, this occurs in such an intense way that it condemns individuals to premature death or a subjugated life. To compound this situation, Western society is continuously bombarded by a...
متن کاملThe varied functions of aluminium-activated malate transporters–much more than aluminium resistance
The ALMT (aluminium-activated malate transporter) family comprises a functionally diverse but structurally similar group of ion channels. They are found ubiquitously in plant species, expressed throughout different tissues, and located in either the plasma membrane or tonoplast. The first family member identified was TaALMT1, discovered in wheat root tips, which was found to be involved in alum...
متن کاملLeptin--much more than a satiety signal.
Much attention has focused on the effects of leptin as a central satiety agent. There is now a significant amount of evidence that leptin is active in the periphery. This review focuses on the ability of leptin to modify insulin sensitivity, tissue metabolism, stress responses, and reproductive function. Leptin's effect on several of these systems is mediated via the hypothalamic-pituitary axis...
متن کاملPresenilins: how much more than γ-secretase?!
AD (Alzheimer's disease) is a neurodegenerative disease characterized by a gradual loss of neurons and the accumulation of neurotoxic Aβ (amyloid β-peptide) and hyperphosphorylated tau. The discovery of mutations in three genes, PSEN1 (presenilin 1), PSEN2 (presenilin 2) and APP (amyloid precursor protein), in patients with FAD (familial AD) has made an important contribution towards an underst...
