(Zoo Outreach Organization, 2007-09)The biological resources of the Western Ghats are under threat due to deforestation and other anthropogenic activities. As monitoring and mapping the biodiversity is the first step in the systematic conservation planning, ...
-
(Wiley, 2008-07)1. Despite considerable theoretical work, the evolution of population stability has rarely been investigated empirically. Moreover, it is not clear whether different stability properties of a population evolve together, ...
-
(Taylor & Francis, 2008-08)Scotin is a pro-apoptotic mammalian gene, which is induced upon DNA damage or cellular stress in a p53-dependent manner. In this report, we have used Drosophila as a model system to obtain a preliminary insight into the ...
-
(Springer Nature., 2008-10)Background: Focal adhesion kinase (FAK) functions in cell migration and signaling through activation of the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) signaling cascade. Neuronal function of FAK has been suggested to control ...
-
(Nature Publishing Group, 2008-11)We investigated the effect of cocaine- and amphetamine-regulated transcript (CART) peptide on depression-like behavior in socially isolated and olfactory bulbectomized (OBX) rats. Administration of CART (54-102) into the ...
-
(Elsevier B.V., 2008-11)We investigated the profile of CART immunoreactivity in some discrete hypothalamic nuclei following chronic ethanol treatment and withdrawal conditions. Adult, male, Sprague–Dawley rats were fed with liquid diet (pair-fed) ...
-
(Elsevier B.V., 2008-12)Cocaine- and amphetamine-regulated transcript (CART) and neuropeptide Y (NPY) are involved in the regulation of food intake, body weight, pituitary hormones, and reproduction. While CART and NPY occupy overlapping fields ...
-
(Elsevier B.V., 2009-01)Weight gain is a common outcome of antipsychotics therapy in schizophrenic patients. However, the underlying neuronal mechanisms are unclear. The present study was undertaken to investigate the role of GABAA receptors ...
-
(Society for Industrial and Applied Mathematics, 2009-01)We derive continuum models of the electrical syncytia of the pancreatic islet of Langerhans using homogenization. Beta-cells in the islets are coupled in their intra- and extracellular potential fields via membrane currents ...
-
(Indian Academy of Sciences, 2009-03)Cooperation among unrelated individuals is an enduring evolutionary riddle and a number of possible solutions have been suggested. Most of these suggestions attempt to refine cooperative strategies, while little attention ...
-
(Elsevier B.V., 2009-04)Since long-term treatment with imipramine increases the neuropeptide Y (NPY) levels in the frontal cortex and hypothalamus, the possibility exists that the antidepressant action of imipramine may be mediated via the NPY ...
-
(Elsevier B.V., 2009-05)Immunocytochemical application of antibodies against nNOS to the brain sections of Clarias batrachus revealed intense immunoreactivity in several olfactory receptor neurons (ORNs), in their axons over the olfactory nerve, ...
-
(Elsevier B.V., 2009-05)We investigated the role of neuropeptide Y Y1 receptors in acute, chronic and withdrawal effects of nicotine with reference to feeding behavior. Rats were administered with nicotine, neuropeptide Y, neuropeptide Y Y1 ...
-
(Bentham Open, 2009-07)The question how Darwinian mechanisms lead to the evolution of individually costly cooperative behavior has given rise to a number of hypotheses. However, attempts to build a synthesis where different types of mechanisms ...
-
(Elsevier B.V., 2009-08)Although morphine is a potent antinociceptive agent, its chronic use developed tolerance in neuropathic pain (NP). Furthermore, opioid antagonist naloxone attenuated the antinociceptive effect of neuropeptide Y (NPY). The ...

-
(Elsevier B.V., 2009-11)Aims Neuropeptide Y (NPY) is widely distributed throughout the brain and has been implicated in some of the actions of ethanol. The aim of the present study was to characterize the subtypes of NPY receptors in ethanol ...
-
(Elsevier B.V., 2009-12)We investigated the role of corticotropin-releasing factor type 2 (CRF2) receptors in acute, chronic and withdrawal effects of nicotine on feeding behavior in rats. Nicotine was injected intraperitoneally, whereas CRF, ...
-
(Springer Nature, 2009-12)In most insect-pollinated flowers, pollinators cannot detect the presence of nectar without entering the flower. Therefore, flowers may cheat by not producing nectar and may still get pollinated. Earlier studies supported ...
-
(Society for Industrial and Applied Mathematics, 2009-12)We describe an extended fast-slow analysis for the dual oscillator model (DOM) for bursting oscillations in pancreatic beta-cells, which occur on a wide range of time scales, from seconds to minutes. This wide dynamic range ...
