Dynamic resetting of the human circadian pacemaker by intermittent bright lightAmerican Journal of Physiology - Regulatory Integrative and Comparative Physiology - Tập 279 Số 5 - Trang R1574-R1579 - 2000
David W. Rimmer, Diane B. Boivin, Theresa L. Shanahan, Richard E. Kronauer, Jeanne F. Duffy, Charles A. Czeisler
In humans, experimental studies of circadian resetting typically have been
limited to lengthy episodes of exposure to continuous bright light. To evaluate
the time course of the human endogenous circadian pacemaker's resetting response
to brief episodes of intermittent bright light, we studied 16 subjects assigned
to one of two intermittent lighting conditions in which the subjects were
presented ... hiện toàn bộ
Simulations of light effects on the human circadian pacemaker: implications for assessment of intrinsic periodAmerican Journal of Physiology - Regulatory Integrative and Comparative Physiology - Tập 270 Số 1 - Trang R271-R282 - 1996
Elizabeth B. Klerman, Derk‐Jan Dijk, Richard E. Kronauer, Charles A. Czeisler
The sensitivity of the human circadian system to light has been the subject of
considerable debate. Using computer simulations of a recent quantitative model
for the effects of light on the human circadian system, we investigated these
effects of light during different experimental protocols. The results of the
simulations indicate that the nonuniform distribution over the circadian cycle
of expos... hiện toàn bộ
Comparative analysis of expression and secretion of placental leptin in mammalsAmerican Journal of Physiology - Regulatory Integrative and Comparative Physiology - Tập 285 Số 2 - Trang R438-R446 - 2003
Jing Zhao, Thomas Kunz, Nancy Tumba, Laura C. Schulz, Chris Li, Monica Reeves, Eric P. Widmaier
Increased plasma level of leptin appears to be a ubiquitous feature of pregnant
mammals. The mechanisms by which leptin levels are increased may be species
specific, however, with some species upregulating adipose leptin production and
others expressing leptin in the placenta. Placental leptin expression was
examined in representative species of the two most abundant mammalian orders,
Rodentia and... hiện toàn bộ
Inflammatory processes in muscle injury and repairAmerican Journal of Physiology - Regulatory Integrative and Comparative Physiology - Tập 288 Số 2 - Trang R345-R353 - 2005
James G. Tidball
Modified muscle use or injury can produce a stereotypic inflammatory response in
which neutrophils rapidly invade, followed by macrophages. This inflammatory
response coincides with muscle repair, regeneration, and growth, which involve
activation and proliferation of satellite cells, followed by their terminal
differentiation. Recent investigations have begun to explore the relationship
between i... hiện toàn bộ
Sex differences in the developmental origins of hypertension and cardiorenal diseaseAmerican Journal of Physiology - Regulatory Integrative and Comparative Physiology - Tập 295 Số 6 - Trang R1941-R1952 - 2008
Jeffrey S. Gilbert, Mark J. Nijland
The “developmental origins of health and disease” (DOHAD) hypothesis derives
from clinical observations, indicating long-term health consequences for persons
of low birth weight. There is growing evidence, primarily from animal studies,
that supports the idea that processes put in motion during development that
contribute to DOHAD do not necessarily reflect as significantly compromised
growth and ... hiện toàn bộ
Quercetin tăng cường sinh tổng hợp ty thể não và cơ bắp cũng như khả năng chịu đựng trong tập luyện Dịch bởi AI American Journal of Physiology - Regulatory Integrative and Comparative Physiology - Tập 296 Số 4 - Trang R1071-R1077 - 2009
John M. Davis, E. Angela Murphy, Martin D. Carmichael, Ben Davis
Quercetin là một trong những nhóm lớn các hợp chất flavonoid polyphenolic tự
nhiên đang được nghiên cứu vì những lợi ích sức khỏe rộng rãi của chúng. Những
lợi ích này thường được cho là do sự kết hợp của hoạt động chống oxy hóa và
kháng viêm, nhưng các bằng chứng in vitro gần đây cho thấy rằng sự cải thiện
sinh tổng hợp ty thể có thể đóng một vai trò quan trọng. Hơn nữa, các tác động

Relationships between aerobic and anaerobic energy production in turtle brain in situAmerican Journal of Physiology - Regulatory Integrative and Comparative Physiology - Tập 247 Số 4 - Trang R740-R744 - 1984
Peter L. Lutz, P. M. McMahon, Myron Rosenthal, Thomas J. Sick
To define the relationships between brain mitochondrial activity and high-energy
intermediates in the turtle, brains were frozen in situ at times determined by
the reduction-oxidation status of cytochrome a,a3. Increases in brain lactate
indicated that transition to anaerobiosis occurred while oxidative reactions
were still ongoing during hypoxia and that the signal for anaerobiosis is not

Highly sensitive index of sympathetic activity based on time-frequency spectral analysis of electrodermal activityAmerican Journal of Physiology - Regulatory Integrative and Comparative Physiology - Tập 311 Số 3 - Trang R582-R591 - 2016
Hugo F. Posada-Quintero, John P. Florian, Álvaro D. Orjuela-Cañón, Ki H. Chon
Time-domain indices of electrodermal activity (EDA) have been used as a marker
of sympathetic tone. However, they often show high variation between subjects
and low consistency, which has precluded their general use as a marker of
sympathetic tone. To examine whether power spectral density analysis of EDA can
provide more consistent results, we recently performed a variety of sympathetic
tone-evok... hiện toàn bộ
Substance P in the nucleus of the solitary tract augments bronchopulmonary C fiber reflex outputAmerican Journal of Physiology - Regulatory Integrative and Comparative Physiology - Tập 279 Số 4 - Trang R1215-R1223 - 2000
Tatsushi Mutoh, Ann C. Bonham, Jesse P. Joad
Bronchopulmonary C fibers defend the lungs against injury from inhaled agents by
a central nervous system reflex consisting of apnea, cough, bronchoconstriction,
hypotension, and bradycardia. Glutamate is the putative neurotransmitter at the
first central synapses in the nucleus of the solitary tract (NTS), but substance
P, also released in the NTS, may modulate the transmission. To test the
hypot... hiện toàn bộ
