Alternatives to Hibernation

چکیده
I outline the evidence pertinent to the connection between the nova explosion and mass transfer rates in CVs. I conclude that there is still insufficient evidence to decide whether or not such a connection exists.

Hibernation,a form of cold-adaptationfoundpimarify in rmmrmhn “ species, involvesmarked declines in bcdy temperature, heart rate, respiration, and metabolicrate. WehaveidentifiedseveralISI@research fronts related to hibernation, including thersnogenesis(heat production), thermoregufation, and other forms of cold-adaptation. Many aspects of hibernation remain unexplained, and researchers continu...

متن کاملCircannual Control of Hibernation by HP Complex in the Brain
Seasonal hibernation in mammals is under a unique adaptation system that protects organisms from various harmful events, such as lowering of body temperature (Tb), during hibernation. However, the precise factors controlling hibernation remain unknown. We have previously demonstrated a decrease in hibernation-specific protein (HP) complex in the blood of chipmunks during hibernation. Here, HP i...
متن کاملFinal Progress Report Differential Gene Expression in Mammalian Liver during Hibernation
Hibernation is an adaptive strategy employed by some mammals to escape the cold. During hibernation, heart, respiratory and metabolic rates plummet, and core body temperatures can approach freezing. Hibernators spontaneously arouse using only endogenously-generated heat. Our long-range goal is to understand the molecular underpinnings of this phenotype in the context of the entire organism. Our...
متن کامل14C-2-deoxyglucose uptake in the ground squirrel brain during entrance to and arousal from hibernation.
Neuronal activity underlying various phases of the mammalian hibernation cycle was investigated using the 14C-2-deoxyglucose (2DG) method. Relative 2DG uptake (R2DGU) values were computed for 96 brain regions across 7 phases of the hibernation cycle: euthermia, 3 body temperature (Tb) intervals during entrance into hibernation, stable deep hibernation, and 2 Tb intervals during arousal from hib...
