Abstract Sleep maintains optimal brain functioning to facilitate behavioural flexibility while awake.Owing to a historical bias towards research on mammals, we know comparatively little about the role of sleep in facilitating the cognitive abilities of birds.We investigated how sleep deprivation over the full-night (12 h) or half-night (6 h) affect
Factors Influencing Rates of Adoption of Trichomoniasis Vaccine by Nevada Range Cattle Producers
Household Cleaning, Skincare, Beauty and Hygiene Products Tritrichimonas foetus vaccine has been marketed since 1989 to combat the trichomoniasis disease that causes reproductive failure and considerable economic loss to Nevada ranchers.An ex post technology adoption model is estimated to examine the possible adoption rate, to identify the factors
Effect of Hemin on Brain Alterations and Neuroglobin Expression in Water Immersion Restraint Stressed Rats
In the brain, the heme oxygenase (HO) system has been reported to be very active and its modulation seems to play a crucial role in the pathophysiology of neurodegenerative disorders.Hemin as HO-1 inducer has been shown to attenuate neuronal injury so the goal of this study was to assess the effect of hemin therapy on the acute stress and how it wo
Priapism Following hCG Administration In A Cat
Priapism, defined as a persistent and painful penile erection in the absence of sexual excitation, is an uncommon disorder of cats that usually requires penile amputation and perineal NECK STRIPS urethrostomy.This report describes a case of priapism in a short-haired Persian male cat aged 3 years.The condition had appeared after attempted mating wi
A proposed molecular mechanism for pathogenesis of severe RNA-viral pulmonary infections [version 1; peer review: 2 approved]
Background: Certain riboviruses can cause severe pulmonary complications leading to death in some infected patients.We propose that DNA damage induced-apoptosis accelerates viral release, triggered by depletion of host RNA binding proteins (RBPs) from nuclear RNA bound to replicating viral sequences.Methods: Information theory-based analysis of int
