For whom the bird sings: context-dependent gene expression.
(Neuron, 1998-10)
Male zebra finches display two song behaviors: directed and undirected singing. The
two differ little in the vocalizations produced but greatly in how song is delivered.
"Directed" song is usually accompanied by a courtship ...
Diminishment of respiratory sinus arrhythmia foreshadows doxorubicin-induced cardiomyopathy.
(Circulation, 1991-08)
BACKGROUND: The development of a microcomputer-based device permits quick, simple,
and noninvasive quantification of the respiratory sinus arrhythmia (RSA) during quiet
breathing. METHODS AND RESULTS: We prospectively and ...
Music, emotion, and autobiographical memory: they're playing your song.
(Mem Cognit, 1999-11)
Very long-term memory for popular music was investigated. Older and younger adults
listened to 20-sec excerpts of popular songs drawn from across the 20th century. The
subjects gave emotionality and preference ratings and ...
Brain gene regulation by territorial singing behavior in freely ranging songbirds.
(Neuroreport, 1997-05-27)
To investigate the ecological relevance of brain gene regulation associated with singing
behavior in songbirds, we challenged freely ranging song sparrows with conspecific
song playbacks within their breeding territories. ...
Induction of anti-myelin antibodies in EAE and their possible role in demyelination.
(J Neurosci Res, 1991-12)
Experimental allergic encephalomyelitis is characterized by invasion of lymphocytes
and macrophages into the central nervous system resulting in inflammation, edema,
and demyelination. Sera from Lewis rats from 7-95 days ...
Properties of word cues for autobiographical memory.
(Psychol Rep, 1997-08)
A sample of 124 words were used to cue autobiographical memories in 120 adults varying
in age from 20 to 73 years. Individual words reliably cued autobiographical memories
of different ages with different speeds. For all ...
Refusal in testicular cancer patients: implications for surveillance.
(Br J Cancer, 1992-05)
Distribution of important and word-cued autobiographical memories in 20-, 35-, and 70-year-old adults.
(Psychol Aging, 1997-09)
For word-cued autobiographical memories, older adults had an increase, or bump, from
the ages 10 to 30. All age groups had fewer memories from childhood than from other
years and a power-function retention for memories from ...
Overexpression of the cardiac beta(2)-adrenergic receptor and expression of a beta-adrenergic receptor kinase-1 (betaARK1) inhibitor both increase myocardial contractility but have differential effects on susceptibility to ischemic injury.
(Circ Res, 1999-11-26)
Cardiac beta(2)-adrenergic receptor (beta(2)AR) overexpression is a potential contractile
therapy for heart failure. Cardiac contractility was elevated in mice overexpressing
beta(2)ARs (TG4s) with no adverse effects under ...
Enhancement of cardiac function after adenoviral-mediated in vivo intracoronary beta2-adrenergic receptor gene delivery.
(J Clin Invest, 1999-07)
Exogenous gene delivery to alter the function of the heart is a potential novel therapeutic
strategy for treatment of cardiovascular diseases such as heart failure (HF). Before
gene therapy approaches to alter cardiac function ...
