L5 Spinal Nerve Axotomy Induces Distinct Electrophysiological Changes in Axotomized L5- and Adjacent L4-Dorsal Root Ganglion Neurons in Rats . by Djouhri, Laiche

“…Consistent with this hypothesis, we found (7 days post-SNA), in SNA rats with established pain hypersensitivity, slower AP kinetics in axotomized L5-neurons and faster AP kinetics in L4-nociceptive neurons including decreased rise time in Aδ-and Aβ-fiber nociceptors, and after-hyperpolarization duration in Aβ-fiber nociceptors. …”

Estimating the age-dependent changes in carbon stocks of Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris L.) stands in Turkey by Lee, Jongyeol

“…Although Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris L.) is a main species in Turkey, studies on such changes are still lacking. • Aims We aimed to estimate the changes in carbon stocks, with stand age, of Scots pine stands in Turkey using field work data and a forest carbon model (FBDC model). • Methods Biomass and dead organic matter carbon stocks were investigated to adjust the forest carbon model and to verify the model estimates. …”

Effect of hypoxia on metabolic markers and gene expression HIF-1 α in adipocytes by Younes, Noura B.

“…Results: Under hypoxia conditions, DHA treatment resulted in significant changes in all critical parameters of adipocyte biology including HIF-1α RNA expression (decreased by 50%), decreased lactate and glycerol release (66% and 25% respectively), and reactive oxygen species (ROS) production (decreased by 15%), while glucose uptake was decreased by 25% accompnied by decreased secretion of pro-inflammatory markers (Interleukin 6 IL-6, 31% reduction) , macrophage chemoattractant protein 1 MCP-1 (38% reduction) and leptin (14% reduction), and increased adiponectin secretion (by 45%). …”
