Plastron Respiration Using Commercial Fabrics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
A variety of insect and arachnid species are able to remain submerged in water indefinitely using plastron respiration. A plastron is a surface-retained film of air produced by surface morphology that acts as an oxygen-carbon dioxide exchange surface ...

From Lung to Brain - Respiration Modulates Neural and Mental Activity

open access: yes, 2023
Respiration sustains metabolic activity in all organs, including the brain. Respiration protocols have been developed to manipulate mental states, including their use for therapeutic purposes, e.g., in anxiety disorders.

The Constrained Disorder Principle Accounts for the Variability That Characterizes Breathing: A Method for Treating Chronic Respiratory Diseases and Improving Mechanical Ventilation

open access: yesAdvances in Respiratory Medicine, 2023
Variability characterizes breathing, cellular respiration, and the underlying quantum effects. Variability serves as a mechanism for coping with changing environments; however, this hypothesis does not explain why many of the variable phenomena of ...

Bomb-14C analysis of ecosystem respiration reveals that peatland vegetation facilitates release of old carbon [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
The largest terrestrial-to-atmosphere carbon flux is respired CO2. However, the partitioning of soil and plant sources, understanding of contributory mechanisms, and their response to climate change are uncertain.

Nicotinamide riboside alleviates exercise intolerance in ANT1-deficient mice

open access: yesMolecular Metabolism, 2022
Objective: Mitochondrial disorders are often characterized by muscle weakness and fatigue. Null mutations in the heart-muscle adenine nucleotide translocator isoform 1 (ANT1) of both humans and mice cause cardiomyopathy and myopathy associated with ...

Respiration in the mesopelagic and bathypelagic zones of the oceans [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
This chapter reviews the mechanisms of transport and remineralization of organic matter in the dark water-columns and sediments of the oceans. Different approaches to estimating respiration rates are compared, and the discrepancies obtained by different ...

Mitochondrial Respiration in Intact Peripheral Blood Mononuclear Cells and Sirtuin 3 Activity in Patients with Movement Disorders [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Objective. Mitochondrial dysfunction is considered a unifying pathophysiological explanation for movement disorders. Sirtuin 3 (SIRT3) exhibits deacetylase activity and antioxidant properties.

Comparison of different objective functions for parameterization of simple respiration models [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
The eddy covariance measurements of carbon dioxide fluxes collected around the world offer a rich source for detailed data analysis. Simple, aggregated models are attractive tools for gap filling, budget calculation, and upscaling in space and time.

Characteristics of stem respiration in black spruce (Picea mariana) stand, interior Alaska

open access: yes, 2021
Boreal forests account for roughly one third of the carbon sequestered in terrestrial ecosystems, and the high-latitude boreal ecosystem they make up has been consequently vulnerable to recent climate change.
