All neuronal networks are modulated by multiple neuropeptides and biogenic amines. Yet, few studies investigate how different modulators interact to regulate network activity. Here we explored the state-dependent functional interactions between three excitatory neuromodulators acting on neurokinin1 (NK1), alpha1 noradrenergic (alpha1 NE), and 5-HT2 serotonin receptors within the pre-Bötzinger c...

This paper investigates the relative labor productivity level for total manufacturing in Germany, Sweden and the US for the period 1980–2001. The paper also presents estimates of labor productivity levels for 18 different manufacturing industries for the period 1993–2000. The results show that the Swedish manufacturing productivity caught up with German and US productivity in the 1990s, overtak...

By SIDNEY TRUBOWITZ, M.D. T HE OCCURRENCE of amyloidosis in multiple myeloma has been long recognized and the association of the two conditions well established. In 1931, Magnus-Levy’ wrote : ‘ ‘When I, at first purely out of interest in the clinical and metabolic aspects of myeloma, dug deeper into the literature, I was surprised to find a rather large, constantly growing body of data on amylo...

The three-dimensional structure of a tryptophan-containing variant of the IgG-binding B1 domain of protein L has been solved in two crystal forms to 1.7 and 1.8 A resolution. In one of the crystal forms, the entire N-terminal histidine-tag region was immobilized through the coordination of zinc ions and its structural conformation along with the zinc coordination scheme were determined. However...

Bumblebees are ecologically and economically important, and some species have suffered dramatic population declines. The absence of morphological diagnostic characters for the identification of some species creates difficulties for basic ecological studies, and for conservation management. The widespread and commercially exploited bumblebee subgenus ​Bombus sensu stricto​ contains a cryptic spe...

The empirical evidence of adverse selection in insurance markets is mixed. The problem in assessing the extent of adverse selection is that insurance coverage also give rise to moral hazard. With private information— on which agents act— generally being unobservable to the researcher, is is di¢ cult to distinguish adverse selection from moral hazard. Unique micro data is here used to provide a ...
