Related neuropeptides use different balances of unitary mechanisms to modulate the cardiac neuromuscular system in the American lobster, Homarus americanus.
To produce flexible outputs, neural networks controlling rhythmic motor behaviors can be modulated at multiple levels, including the pattern generator itself, sensory feedback, and the response of the muscle to a given pattern of motor output. We examined the role of two related neuropeptides, GYSDRNYLRFamide (GYS) and SGRNFLRFamide (SGRN), in modulating the neurogenic lobster heartbeat, which ...
متن کاملPhysiological effects of two FMRFamide-related peptides from the crayfish Procambarus clarkii
The present study examined the effects of two recently identified neuropeptides on crayfish hearts and on neuromuscular junctions of the crayfish deep abdominal extensor muscles. The two peptides, referred to as NF1 (Asn-Arg-Asn-Phe-Leu-Arg-Phe-NH2) and DF2 (Asp-Arg-Asn-Phe-Leu-Arg-Phe-NH2), increased the rate and amplitude of spontaneous cardiac contractions and increased the amplitude of exci...
متن کاملMechanisms linking Mental Health Problems and Cardiac Disease: A Review
Psychological problems play a critical role in development of cardiovascular disease. Several mechanisms were suggested to explain the association and mechanism of this effect, recently. Knowledge of the mechanisms mediating the association between psychological status and heart disease could help in developing treatments. The effects of mind and mood on the cardiovascular system can be due to ...
متن کاملThe effect of progressive aerobic continuous training on angiotensin-1, angiotensin-2 and angiotensin-converting enzyme type 2 in patients with heart failure
Background: Chronic hypertension causes structural and functional changes in the heart, ultimately leading to heart failure (HF), which further increases mortality and morbidit. HF is a complex clinical syndrome caused by various structural or functional abnormalities of the heart that impair the filling capacity of the ventricles. The findings of various trials have shown the association betwe...
متن کاملForces generated during stretch in the heart of the lobster Homarus americanus are anisotropic and are altered by neuromodulators.
Mechanical and neurophysiological anisotropies mediate three-dimensional responses of the heart of ITALIC! Homarus americanus Although hearts ITALIC! in vivoare loaded multi-axially by pressure, studies of invertebrate cardiac function typically use uniaxial tests. To generate whole-heart length-tension curves, stretch pyramids at constant lengthening and shortening rates were imposed uniaxiall...
