FUNCTIONAL INTERACTIONS BETWEEN NEUROTRANSMITTERS AND NEUROPEPTIDES IN REGULATING SUPRACHIASMATIC NUCLEUS FUNCTION AND CIRCADIAN RHYTHMS

Functional interactions between neurotransmitters and neuropeptides in regulating suprachiasmatic nucleus function and circadian rhythms

The overt expression of circadian rhythms is a manifestation of the suprachiasmatic Quickstrikes nucleus (SCN).This integrated complex function based on the transcriptional/translational feedback loops (TFFLs), neurotransmitters, genes, networking, and synchronization is essential for this molecular mechanism to operate effectively.Neurotransmitter

Single-species microarrays and comparative transcriptomics.

BACKGROUND: Prefabricated expression microarrays are currently available for only a few species but methods have been proposed to extend their application to comparisons between divergent genomes.METHODOLOGY/PRINCIPAL FINDINGS: Here we demonstrate that the hybridization intensity of genomic DNA is a poor basis on which to select unbiased probes on

The systemic crisis of climate change: clinical and political reflections (2013) and The EcoSystemic Return: clinical and political implications (2021)

In this special issue on the EcoSystemic Return, we have the honour of our Revival Paper being the 2013 paper by esteemed systemic ecology activist from Ireland, Philip Kearney.This paper is a reminder that the systemic community did not PERM heed warnings about ecology issued by Gregory Bateson in the 1960s and 70s.In 2013, Phil Kearney reminded u
