Physiological Differences Associated with Genetic Differences in Egg Production

Genetic differences in drug metabolism associated with ocular toxicity.

The tissue localization and subcellular distribution of drug-metabolizing enzymes in the eye are described. With the use of inbred strains of mice, the [Ah] complex is shown to be an important experimental system for probing genetic differences in drug metabolism and related drug toxicities. Although the genetic system described in detail here involves mice, there is ample evidence that the sam...

Individual differences and development of speech act production

This  study  examined  the  effects  of  individual  difference  (ID)  factors  on  changing  pragmatic abilities  among  L2  learners  of  English.  Participants  were  48  Japanese  EFL  students  in  an English-medium  university  in  Japan.  They  completed  a  pragmatic  speaking  test  (k=12)  that assessed  their  ability  to  produce  two  speech  acts:  requests  and  opinions,  in  hi...

Sex differences in physiological cardiac hypertrophy are associated with exercise-mediated changes in energy substrate availability.

Exercise-induced cardiac hypertrophy has been recently identified to be regulated in a sex-specific manner. In parallel, women exhibit enhanced exercise-mediated lipolysis compared with men, which might be linked to cardiac responses. The aim of the present study was to assess if previously reported sex-dependent differences in the cardiac hypertrophic response during exercise are associated wi...

genetic determinants differences between vibrio cholerae biotypes

vibrio cholerae o1 are classified into two biotypes, classical and el tor based on susceptibility to bacteriophages and some biochemical properties, each encoding a biotype-specific genetic determinants. before 1961, most epidemics had been caused by the classical biotype. however, with the passage of time, the classical biotype missed from the scenario and the el tor emerged as the major bioty...
