Orexinergic Neurotransmission in Temperature Responses to Methamphetamine and Stress: Mathematical Modeling as a Data Assimilation Approach

EXPERIMENTAL DATA Orexinergic neurotransmission is involved in mediating temperature responses to methamphetamine (Meth). In experiments in rats, SB-334867 (SB), an antagonist of orexin receptors (OX1R), at a dose of 10 mg/kg decreases late temperature responses (t > 60 min) to an intermediate dose of Meth (5 mg/kg). A higher dose of SB (30 mg/kg) attenuates temperature responses to low dose (1...

The responses of potato cultivars to osmotic and temperature stresses under in vitro conditions

In order to investigate the responses of potato plantlets under in vitro conditions to osmotic and temperature stresses, a factorial experiment was carried out in a completely randomized design with three replications. Each replicate contained a glass jar with 5 explants grown in it. The first...

Orexinergic System Dysregulation in Depression

Depression is an affective disorder characterized, in particular in its more severe form, i.e., major depressive disorder (MDD), by persistent symptoms of unpleasant (dysphoric) mood, inability to experience pleasure (anhedonia), and a generalized loss of interest in most or all normal activities [1]. Depression is often associated with physiological and cognitive symptoms. Physiological sympto...

Cuphea Growth and Development: Responses to Temperature

INTRODUCTION Species from the genus Cuphea, Lythraceae, are known to produce seed rich in medium chain fatty acids (MCFA), which are important feed-stocks in the manufacturing of soaps and detergents and numerous other related products (Thompson 1984). In the US there are no crops grown that serve as an economical replacement of MCFA. Consequently, the US chemical industry imports most MCFA as ...
