Ultrastructural studies on the antennal sensilla of Pteromalus puparum L. (Hymenoptera: Pteromalidae)

open access: yes浙江大学学报. 农业与生命科学版, 2000
Antennal surface structure of Pteromalus puparum L. was observed by scanning electron microscope. Seven types of sensilla, namely, thick-walled chemoreceptor, thin-walled chemoreceptor, plate organ, short-curved tactile hair, sharp-tipped tactile hair ...

Human adaptation to high‐altitude: A contemporary comparison of the oxygen cascade in Andean, Tibetan and Ethiopian highlanders

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Human populations native to high altitude have evolved distinct physiological adaptations to chronic hypoxia. This adaptation is evident in the O2 transport cascade. In this review, with brief inclusion of the related genetic adaptations, we compare the O2 cascade across three well‐characterized high‐altitude populations: Andeans (Aymara and ...

MECHANISMS OF DISEASE Acute Oxygen-Sensing Mechanisms [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
JOSEPH PRIESTLEY, ONE OF THE THREE SCIENTISTS CREDITED WITH THE discovery of oxygen, described the death of mice that were deprived of oxygen. However, he was also well aware of the toxicity of too much oxygen, stating, “For as a candle burns much faster

The genomes of two key bumblebee species with primitive eusocial organization [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Background: The shift from solitary to social behavior is one of the major evolutionary transitions. Primitively eusocial bumblebees are uniquely placed to illuminate the evolution of highly eusocial insect societies.

Imposed expiratory resistance, dynamic hyperinflation and locomotor power and fatigue

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Expiratory flow limitation results in dynamic hyperinflation, dyspnoea and premature exercise intolerance. We aimed to measure whether expiratory resistance reduces locomotor power via limiting maximal voluntary motor activity, exacerbating muscle fatigue, or both.

The hypoxic ventilatory response and arousal burden predict the magnitude of ventilatory long‐term facilitation in humans with obstructive sleep apnoea

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract The magnitude of progressive augmentation (PA) and ventilatory long‐term facilitation (vLTF) are two forms of respiratory plasticity that are enhanced in some humans with obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA). This response might be linked to repeated nocturnal exposure to intermittent hypoxia or other traits connected to OSA.

Structure of bacterial cytoplasmic chemoreceptor arrays and implications for chemotactic signaling [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Most motile bacteria sense and respond to their environment through a transmembrane chemoreceptor array whose structure and function have been well-studied, but many species also contain an additional cluster of chemoreceptors in their cytoplasm ...

Maximal strength and voluntary activation of adductor pollicis after a single session of acute intermittent hypercapnia or acute intermittent hypoxia

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Acute intermittent hypoxia (AIH) can increase maximal strength of limb muscles in people with incomplete spinal cord injury (SCI), but it is mostly untested in people without SCI. Acute intermittent hypercapnia (AIC) may engage similar respiratory circuits to AIH, but the effects of AIC on human limb motor output are unknown.

Adaptive response and enlargement of dynamic range [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Many membrane channels and receptors exhibit adaptive, or desensitized, response to a strong sustained input stimulus, often supported by protein activity-dependent inactivation.
