Effectiveness of TTX in Promoting Anatomical Recovery from MD in Kittens
(2017-08-01)Monocular deprivation (MD) during the critical period of visual development precipitates neuronal alterations in the dorsal lateral geniculate nucleus (dLGN) of kittens that include significant reduction in axon terminals ... -
EFFECTS OF 5′-TRIPHOSPHATE METABOLITES OF SPECIFIC ANTIVIRAL DRUGS ON CTP SYNTHASE ACTIVITY
(2021-12-16)Cytidine-5′-triphosphate (CTP) synthase (CTPS) catalyzes the biosynthesis of CTP from UTP using either L-glutamine or free NH3 as a substrate. CTP is an essential precursor for viral replication; thus, its production has ... -
The Effects of a 2-Week Isometric Neck Exercise Training Program on Standing Balance.
(2021-08-16)The purpose was to assess a neck-specific exercise program on balance performance. Balance was measured using standing tests (Romberg (ROM), Modified Romberg (MROM), and Unipedal Stance) on force plates to assess center ... -
Effects of a novel metabolite of pentoxifylline in vitro and in vivo in models of fibrosis and inflammation.
(Dalhousie University, 2004) -
The effects of age and sex on biomechanical asymmetries of the lower limbs during a walk, run and side-cut task
(2020-05-04)INTRODUCTION: The anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) is an important contributor to knee joint stability during athletic maneuvers such as a side-cut. ACL rupture is associated with short- and long-term consequences that ... -
Effects of age on the arterial system and the heart.
(Dalhousie University, 1997) -
Effects of an Aquaculture Fish Farm on the Sediment Geochemistry of a Naturally Anoxic Basin
(2023-08-01)The Whycocomagh Basin, located in the Bras d’Or Lakes, Nova Scotia, is a naturally deep and anoxic basin that presently houses a Steelhead Trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) aquaculture farm operated as an economic resource by ... -
EFFECTS OF APEX ANGLE VARIATION ON FLOW DEVELOPMENT IN JETS ISSUING FROM DIFFERENT ISOSCELES TRIANGULAR ORIFICES
(2011-08-10)Isothermal, incompressible jets of air issuing from sharp-edged isosceles triangular orifices with apex angles of 10°, 20°, 30°, 70° and 160° into still surrounding air, were used to study the effects of apex angle variation ... -
The Effects of Beta-Adrenergic Drugs on Proliferation and Differentiation of Mid-Gestation Ventricular Cells and Their Impact on Donor Cell Transplantation
(2016-11-01)Heart disease is the leading cause of death worldwide. Cell transplantation therapy is emerging as a method for regeneration of the heart muscle cells (cardiomyocytes) lost during disease. Despite several advances in cell ... -
The Effects of Beta-Adrenergic Receptor Signalling on Ventricular Conduction System Cell Development
(2021-08-31)Myocardial regenerative treatments with cardiac progenitor cells (CPCs) have been emerging as viable treatment options for myocardial injury. CPCs have the potential to differentiate into working cardiomyocytes and conduction ... -
The Effects of Calcium Channel Blockade and Atrial Natriuretic Peptide Signalling on Proliferation and Differentiation of Cardiac Progenitor Cells
(2013-08-23)Cardiac progenitor cells (CPCs) are abundant in the embryonic heart and have hallmark features which include a rapid rate of cell division and the ability to differentiate into mature heart muscle cells (cardiomyocytes). ... -
Effects of cannabinoid agonists in the mammalian eye.
(Dalhousie University, 2005) -
The Effects of Canola (Brassica napus) and Juncea (Brassica juncea) Meals in Diets on Broilers and Turkeys
(2013-04-30)Canola and juncea meals can be used in poultry diets instead of soybean meal. The meals were fed to broilers and turkeys in digestibility trials to measure the apparent metabolizable energy (AMEn). Throughout growth trials, ... -

Effects of chronic sleep restriction on blood vessel density in the prefrontal cortex and hippocampus in rats
(2016-12-06)Increased blood vessel density could increase the efficiency of the glymphatic system which removes waste from the brain. This study tested the hypothesis that chronic sleep restriction (CSR) increases blood vessel density ...
