Coronaviruses are responsible on respiratory diseases in animal and human. The combination of numerical encoding techniques and digital signal processing methods are becoming increasingly important in…
With the aging of the population and the consequent severe shortage of caregivers, the demand for care robots to assist the elderly is increasing. However, care robots have yet to be widely adopted ow…
In 2020, Brazil was the leading country in COVID-19 cases in Latin America, and capital cities were the most severely affected by the outbreak. Climates vary in Brazil due to the territorial extension…
The humoral immune response to PC was measured in guinea pigs. PC-vaccine stimulated IgM and IgG2, but little IgG1, anti-PC -antibodies. No memory was induced and immunization in CFA produced toleranc…
The haemodynamic and autonomic nervous system effects of the DA2 agonist, SK & F 101468, have been studied in anaesthetised cats. SK & F 101468 inhibited the tachycardia response to cardiac accelerans…
Anopheles gambiae s.1. and An. funestus were sampled for Plasmodium spp. ookinetes in two P. falciparum-endemic sites in western Kenya. Since the ookinete is a transitional stage of short duration, oc…
Differences in the isoelectric spectra and in the molecular oxygen affinity to hemoglobin have been shown in 14-, 28- and 49-day hens. A regular decrease in the number of isoelectric components as wel…
Triploid oysters were induced using cytochalasin B upon retention of either the first (meiosis I triploids) or the second (meiosis II triploids) polar body in embryos from a single cohort derived from…
Cats after unilateral bulbar pyramid section showed permanent loss of tactile placing in the contralateral limbs. However, the cats could be trained to place the forelimb following light touch in a co…
There is limited quantitative microscopic information concerning the three-dimensional arrangement of cardiomyocytes and microvessels in cardiotoxic condition. The aim of this study was to evaluate th…
RATIONALE AND OBJECTIVES: We sought to demonstrate the viability of microcomputed tomographic colonography (muCTC) as a tool for monitoring tumorigenesis in mouse models of human colorectal cancer dur…
Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) space enlargement has been demonstrated in substance-related disorders like alcohol and cocaine dependence. Experimental animal studies showed a reduction in shape and size o…
What does it mean to "know" what an object is? Viewing objects from different categories (e.g., tools vs. animals) engages distinct brain regions, but it is unclear whether these differences reflect o…
The development of resistance to paclitaxel in tumors is one of the most significant obstacles to successful therapy. Overexpression of the betaIII-tubulin isotype has been associated with paclitaxel …
Electrostatic phenomena are known to enhance both wind- and insect-mediated pollination, but have not yet been described for nectar-feeding vertebrates. Here we demonstrate that wild Anna's Hummingbir…
Latissimus dorsi (LD) muscles of six canines were studied to assess changes induced by electrical conditioning and to quantify the capacity of these muscles to perform hemodynamic work. Muscles were c…
The neurotoxic potential of polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) depends on the structure of the congener as well as on the age of the exposure. We exposed rats prenatally to a coplanar congener (PCB-77) …
The T-tubule (TT) system forms the structural basis for excitation-contraction coupling in heart and muscle cells. The morphogenesis of the TT system is a key step in the maturation of heart cells bec…
A database of plastinated materials was set up and distributed with a CD-ROM on the Internet. A total of 197 specimens, prepared at the Medical Museum of the University of Tokyo between 1991 and 1995,…
Cerebral beta-amyloidosis is a central part of the neuropathology of Alzheimer's disease (AD). Quantitation of beta-amyloid plaques in the human AD brain, and in animal models of AD, is an important s…
