The relative importance of aand /?-adrenergic pathways and of their respective intracellular mediators, calcium and CAMP, in the stimulation of phosphorylase a induced by catecholamines was studied in hepatocytes isolated from mature male and female rats. The fractional efflux of 46Ca was used as an index of intracellular calcium activity, Our results show that, in females: 1) the activation of...

The concept of animal personalities has recently become of major interest as researchers began to wonder why animals within a given population show consistent behaviour across situations and contexts, what led to the evolution of such behavioural inflexibility and what mechanisms might underlie the phenomenon. A recent model explains individual differences in a population as the result of trade...

We have investigated, in a previous work, the transition dipole moments (TDM) of 13 1Σ+ states (SrK)+ molecular ion by using ab initio method based on pseudo-potential approach. The radiative lifetimes for all vibrational levels A and C1Σ+ been calculated such curves. included bound-free emissions probabilities further to bound–bound transitions. determined exactly, Franck–Condon approach, then...

Prior research indicates that managers’ dark personality traits increase their tendency to engage in disruptive and unethical organizational behaviors including accounting earnings management. Other suggests the prevalence of personalities management may represent an accidental byproduct selecting managers with accompanying desirable attributes fit stereotype a “strong leader.” Our paper posits...
