The proportion of light-responsive neurons determines the limit cycle properties of the suprachiasmatic nucleus.
In mammals, the central clock in the suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN) controls physiological and behavioral circadian rhythms and is entrained to the external light-dark cycle. The ability of the SCN to entrain can be measured by exposing the animal to a light-dark cycle with a duration that deviates from 24 h (T-cycles); a wider entrainment range reflects a higher ability to entrain. The neurons ...
متن کاملUse of laser-triggered gold nanoparticle-grafted dual light and temperature-responsive polymeric sensor for the recognition of thioguanine as anti-tumor agent
Objective(s): Today, there is an urgent need for improved sensor materials for drug sensing and effective monitoring and interventions in this area are highly required to struggle drug abuse. The present study aimed to synthesize a thioguanine-responsive sensor based on a nanocomposite consisting of AuNP-grafted light- and temperature-responsive poly butylmethacrylate-co-acrylamide-co-methacryl...
متن کاملPostnatal expression of EAAC1 and glutamate receptor subunits in vestibular nuclear neurons responsive to vertical linear acceleration
Both glutamate receptors and transporters are known to be important in the postsynaptic regulation of glutamate neurotransmission. However, the maturation profile of glutamate transporter EAAC1 and glutamate receptor subunits (NR1, NR2A and NR2B; and GluR 1-4) in functionally activated saccule-related vestibular nuclear neurons of postnatal rats remains unclear. In the present study, conscious ...

متن کاملDevelopmental expression of tyrosine kinase b in rat vestibular nuclear neurons responding to horizontal and vertical linear accelerations
Brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) is known to be crucial for the development of peripheral vestibular neurons. However, the maturation profile of the BDNF signal transducing receptor, tyrosine kinase B (TrkB) in functionally activated otolith-related vestibular nuclear neurons of postnatal rats remains unexplored. In the present study, conscious Sprague-Dawley rats (P4 to adult) were sub...
