Association of Locomotor Activity During Sleep Deprivation Treatment With Response
Disrupted circadian rhythms and sleep patterns are frequently observed features of psychiatric disorders, and especially mood disorders. Sleep deprivation treatment (SD) exerts rapid but transient antidepressant effects in depressed patients and has ...

Stimulation of glia reveals modulation of mammalian spinal motor networks by adenosine [PDF]
This work was funded by the Wellcome Trust Institutional Strategic Support Fund for University of St. Andrews.Despite considerable evidence that glia can release modulators to influence the excitability of neighbouring neurons, the importance of ...

Effect of deuterium on the circadian period and metabolism in wild-type and tau mutant Syrian hamsters [PDF]
Homozygous tau mutant Syrian hamsters (tau-/-) have a free-running circadian period (τ) around 20 h and a proportionally higher metabolic rate compared with wild-type hamsters (tau+/+) with a period of circa 24 h.

The development of free-swimming in Xenopus laevis larvae [PDF]
In Xenopus laevis frog tadpoles, highly self-motive, free-swimming behaviour emerges at the onset of feeding. This is in contrast to the earlier post-hatched larval form, which is capable of escape swimming when stimulated, but normally lies dormant.

Locomotor activity of adult Dermacentor reticulatus ticks (Ixodida: Ixodidae) in natural conditions [PDF]
Introduction and objective Expansion into new areas and the great epidemiological significance of the D. reticulatus tick in Europe prompts investigations of its ethology. Therefore, the locomotor activity of D.

The Role of Storage Lipids in the Relation between Fecundity, Locomotor Activity, and Lifespan of Drosophila melanogaster Longevity-Selected and Control Lines. [PDF]
The contribution of insect fat body to multiple processes, such as development, metamorphosis, activity, and reproduction results in trade-offs between life history traits.

Metamodulation of a spinal locomotor network by nitric oxide [PDF]
Flexibility in the output of spinal networks can be accomplished by the actions of neuromodulators; however, little is known about how the process of neuromodulation itself may be modulated.
