CO2-induced ocean acidification increases anxiety in rockfish via alteration of GABAA receptor functioning.
The average surface pH of the ocean is dropping at a rapid rate due to the dissolution of anthropogenic CO2, raising concerns for marine life. Additionally, some coastal areas periodically experience upwelling of CO2-enriched water with reduced pH. Previous research has demonstrated ocean acidification (OA)-induced changes in behavioural and sensory systems including olfaction, which is due to ...
متن کاملBiomarker response of climate change-induced ocean acidification and hypercapnia studies on brachyurian crab Portunus pelagicus
A laboratory level microcosm analysis of the impacts of ocean acidification on the environmental stress biomarkers in Portunus pelagicus (Linneaus 1758)exposed to a series of pH regimes expected in the year 2100 (pH 7.5 and 7.0) and leakage from a sub-seabed carbon dioxide storage site (pH 6.5 - 5.5) was carried out. Levels of the antioxidant enzyme catalase, the phase II detoxificatio...
متن کاملOcean acidification increases fatty acids levels of larval fish.
Rising levels of anthropogenic carbon dioxide in the atmosphere are acidifying the oceans and producing diverse and important effects on marine ecosystems, including the production of fatty acids (FAs) by primary producers and their transfer through food webs. FAs, particularly essential FAs, are necessary for normal structure and function in animals and influence composition and trophic struct...
متن کاملDeletion of the GABA(A) receptor alpha1 subunit increases tonic GABA(A) receptor current: a role for GABA uptake transporters.
The loss of more than half the number of GABA(A) receptors yet lack of pronounced phenotype in mice lacking the gene for the GABA(A) alpha1 subunit is somewhat paradoxical. We explored the role of tonic GABA(A) receptor-mediated current as a target of compensatory regulation in the alpha1 knock-out (-/-) mice. A 62% increase of tonic current was observed in the cerebellar granule cells (CGCs) o...
متن کاملRole of GABAB Receptor and L-Arg in GABA- Induced Vasorelaxation in Non-diabetic and Streptozotocin-Induced Diabetic Rat Vessels
Background: Hypertension is considered an independent risk factor for cardiovascular mortality in diabetic patients. The present study was designed to determine the role of gamma amino butyric acid B (GABAB) receptor and L-arginine (L-Arg) in GABA-induced vasorelaxation in normal and streptozotocin-induced diabetic rat vessels. Methods: Diabetes was induced by a single i.p. injection of strepto...
