Although hypoxia (lack of oxygen in body tissues) is perhaps the most physiological inducer of the wild-type p53 gene, the mechanism of this induction is unknown. Cells may detect low oxygen levels through a haem-containing sensor protein. The hypoxic state can be mimicked by using cobalt chloride
OBJECTIVE
To determine safety, anesthetic variables, and cardiopulmonary effects of i.v. infusion of propofol for induction and maintenance of anesthesia in wild turkeys.
METHODS
10 healthy, adult wild turkeys.
METHODS
Anesthesia was induced by i.v. administration of propofol (5 mg/kg of body
Antihypoxic and nootropic activities of extracts from aerial parts of wild and cultivated Alfredia cernua (L.) Cass. were studied on the models of pressure chamber hypoxia, open field test, and passive avoidance conditioning. The extracts of Alfredia cernua promoted retention of the orientation
Alpha2 agonists are commonly used in combination with other anesthetic agents to chemically immobilize wildlife and may cause potentially serious hypoxemia in wild ruminants. In some domestic ruminants, they are associated with significant changes to the pulmonary parenchyma, increased venous
Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), comprising 85% of lung cancer cases, has been associated with resistance to chemo/radiotherapy. The hypoxic tumor micro-environment, where insufficient vasculature results in poor drug penetrance and sub-optimal chemotherapy in the tumor interiors contributes
Net-pen salmon aquaculture has well-known effects on coastal ecosystems: farm waste increases sediment organic content and the incidence of sediment anoxia, supports increased production of deposit-feeding invertebrates, and attracts higher densities of demersal fish and other mobile carnivores.
Skin grafts, including skin flaps, are widely used in plastic and reconstructive surgery to cover wounds and tissue defects resulting from mechanic or burn injury. Ischemic necrosis is the main complication in skin graft surgery due to inefficient revascularization. Though the surgical delay
Marmots (Marmota flaviventris) are burrowing mammals that may be subjected to low levels of oxygen and high levels of carbon dioxide in their underground environment. Since marmots successfully deal with this physiological challenge, we hypothesized that the isolated perfused marmot heart would be
Properties of hemocyanins vary greatly among crustaceans due to environmental conditions, lifestyle, and genetic variation. These properties can also be modified to maintain aerobic respiration in response to ambient hypoxia, as experienced by both aquacultured and wild populations of penaeid
Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is the most common type of primary brain tumour in adults, and presents a very low survival rate. Isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH)1/2 mutations have been found in ~12% of glioblastomas and are associated with long-term GBM survival. However, the risk factors that
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the most common form of dementia and pathologically featured by β-amyloid (Aβ) plaque deposition and hyper-phosphorylated tau aggregation in the brain. Environmental factors are believed to contribute to the pathogenesis and progression of AD. In the present study, we
Nine marine otters (Lontra felina) were anesthetized 15 times with a combination of ketamine (5.3 +/- 0.9 [range: 4.5-8.0] mg/kg) and medetomidine (53 - 9 [range: 45-80] microg/kg) i.m. by hand syringe for the placement of radiotransmitters. Times to initial effect and induction period ranged from
The aryl hydrocarbon nuclear translocator (Arnt) is a basic helix-loop-helix (per/Arnt/Ahr/sim) PAS-containing protein that can heterodimerize with the aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR), the hypoxia-inducible factor-1 alpha, and other PAS-containing proteins to form transcriptionally active complexes.

We report the first study on the unique allele from wild barley that can improve waterlogging tolerance in cultivated barley with a substantially higher contribution to aerenchyma formation. Waterlogging is one of the major abiotic stresses that dramatically reduce barley crop yield.
As part of a wildlife rescue during the filling of a lake created by a hydroelectric dam (Petit Saut, French Guiana), 10 wild kinkajous (Potos flavus) were immobilized with medetomidine and ketamine for clinical examination and collection of biological samples. A mean (+/-SD) i.m. dose of
