Deprenyl Can Mediate Neuronal Protection Rather than Neuronal Rescue
Background and Objective: Deprenyl is a drug for the treatment of Parkinson’s disease, where the dopaminergic neurons are the target of this drug. Several reports also documented that deprenyl has an effect on the sensory and motor neurons. There are some reports about the mode of action of deprenyl on m...
متن کاملHomotypic interactions of chicken GATA-1 can mediate transcriptional activation.
We used a one-hybrid system to replace precisely the finger II chicken GATA-1 DNA-binding domain with the binding domain of bacterial repressor protein LexA. The LexA DNA-binding domain lacks amino acids that function for transcriptional activation, nuclear localization, or protein dimerization. This allowed us to analyze activities of GATA-1 sequences distinct from DNA binding. We found that s...
متن کاملSexual Selection in the Water Spider: Female Choice and MaleMale Competition
When selection acts differently on the body size of males and females, their adult sizes may diverge. The resulting sexual size dimorphism (SSD) covers an astounding range across taxa, with extreme examples in both directions (see Fairbairn et al. 2007). Generally, in most sexually reproducing animals, females are the larger sex (Andersson 1994; Fairbairn et al. 2007), which is mainly explained...
متن کاملSexual preferences for mate song types in female song sparrows
Copulation solicitation displays were used to investigate whether female song sparrows are especially stimulated by the songs their mates sing. Eight of nine (88.9%) recently captured oestradioltreated female song sparrows, Melospiza melodia, gave more solicitation displays and displayed more intensely for song types recorded from repertoires of their mates than for songs from other males from ...
متن کاملSexual harassment in heterogeneous landscapes can mediate population regulation in a grasshopper
Population regulation has been related to differences in the quality among habitats, which mediate differences in vital rates such that in poor habitats reproductive rates are lower than those in high-quality habitats. The spatial distribution of animals in such habitats depends on their preferences and the degree to which individuals have a free choice of a particular habitat. The identified m...
