    The Effect of Endocannabinoids on Carbachol Induced Contractions in the Rat Uterus 2008 REU Animal Behavior Abstract

    The Effect of Endocannabinoids on Carbachol Induced Contractions in the Rat Uterus 2008 REU Animal Behavior Abstract Gilda Bobele Kinsey Institute and the Center for the Integrative Study of Animal Behavior Indiana University, Bloomington, IN Interest in endogenous cannabinoids has been generated by the well-document analgesic properties of exogenous cannabinoids, most familiarly Δ9-tetrahydrocannabinol. The endocannabinoid pathway is a complex signaling system involving CB1 and CB2 G- protein coupled receptors, which are activated by lipid ligands. Previous research has delineated the roles of both receptors in analgesia and nociception by using knockout mice and genetic studies in combination with pain model tests, but - due to pain tolerance differences in the strains of rat used and variation in pain models - previous tests on the properties of the CB1 and CB2 receptors have been conflicting. Regardless, regulation of the endocannabinoid pathway has the potential to regulate pain response and treat pain disorders. Part of the established endocannabinoid system involves a calcium-dependent transacylase-catalyzed enzymatic phosphorylation and hydrolysis that produces of N- acylethanolamines. Endocannabinoids such as anandamide have been shown to antagonize the spontaneous contractility of muscarinic smooth muscle ileum tissue, repressing the observed amplitude of contractions in a concentration-dependent fashion. Contractions in uterine and other smooth muscle tissue are stimulated by the parasympathetic nervous system’s release of acetylcholine, and thus an organ bath experiment was used to manipulate the pathway and observe resulting contractions. Tissue harvested from rats determined to be in estrus of a regularly proceeding cycle was dissected into four samples and mounted in buffer solution at 32 degrees Celsius.

    Amazon Alive: a Decade of Discoveries 1999-2009

    Amazon Alive! A decade of discovery 1999-2009 The Amazon is the planet’s largest rainforest and river basin. It supports countless thousands of species, as well as 30 million people. © Brent Stirton / Getty Images / WWF-UK © Brent Stirton / Getty Images The Amazon is the largest rainforest on Earth. It’s famed for its unrivalled biological diversity, with wildlife that includes jaguars, river dolphins, manatees, giant otters, capybaras, harpy eagles, anacondas and piranhas. The many unique habitats in this globally significant region conceal a wealth of hidden species, which scientists continue to discover at an incredible rate. Between 1999 and 2009, at least 1,200 new species of plants and vertebrates have been discovered in the Amazon biome (see page 6 for a map showing the extent of the region that this spans). The new species include 637 plants, 257 fish, 216 amphibians, 55 reptiles, 16 birds and 39 mammals. In addition, thousands of new invertebrate species have been uncovered. Owing to the sheer number of the latter, these are not covered in detail by this report. This report has tried to be comprehensive in its listing of new plants and vertebrates described from the Amazon biome in the last decade. But for the largest groups of life on Earth, such as invertebrates, such lists do not exist – so the number of new species presented here is no doubt an underestimate.

Pimelodus pintado n. sp. is distinguished from congeners by the combination of its densely spotted pigmentation pattern with many small dots irregularly placed over flanks, head and all fins, and, when fresh, metallic golden background color, plus thick striated lips with prominent rictal folds, long snout, prominent upper jaw, anterior naris far from snout margin, narrow premaxillary tooth bands with rounded posterolateral corners, tooth- less prevomer and 22-26 gill rakers on first branchial arch. Pimelodus pintado is compared to other spotted species of Pimelodus including P. maculatus, P. heraldoi, P. absconditus, P. microstoma, P. mysteriosus, P. paranaensis, P. platicirris, P. ortmanni, P. britskii, P. fur, P. grosskopfii, P. navarroi, P. coprophagus and P. punctatus. New taxon: Pimelodus pintado Azpelicueta, Lundberg and Loureiro INTRODUCTION Merín (Fig. 1).

Bernt Maxwell J. Bernt , Aaron H. Fronk , Kory M. Evans 2 [email protected] and James S. Albert From a study of morphological and molecular datasets we determine that a species originally described as Sternarchogiton preto does not form a monophyletic group with the other valid species of Sternarchogiton including the type species, S. nattereri. Previously-published phylogenetic analyses indicate that this species is sister to a diverse clade comprised of six described apteronotid genera. We therefore place it into a new genus diagnosed by the presence of three cranial fontanels, first and second infraorbital bones independent (not fused), the absence of an ascending process on the endopterygoid, and dark brown to black pigments over the body surface and fins membranes. We additionally provide Submitted November 13, 2019 a redescription of this enigmatic species with an emphasis on its osteology, and Accepted February 2, 2020 by provide the first documentation of secondary sexual dimorphism in this species.

Triques Departamento de Zoologia, Instituto de Ciências Biológicas, Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais. Av. Antônio Carlos 6627, Pampulha, 31270- 901, Belo Horizonte, MG, Brasil. E-mail: [email protected] Abstract Cladistic analysis of external morphology and skeletal characters of Apteronotidae (Teleostei: Gymnotyiformes). Cladistic analysis of external morphology and skeletal characters was undertaken for 37 species of Apteronotidae, Neotropical electric fishes. Orthosternarchus + Sternarchorhamphus (included here in Sternarchorhamphinae status novo) are proposed to be the sister taxa to all remaining apteronotids, most of which form a basal polytomy in Apteronotinae. Several apteronotid species are currently incertae sedis but the monophyly of several genera were corroborated. Sternarchorhynchus is proposed to be the sister group of Ubidia magdalensis + Platyurosternarchus macrostomus, together forming the Sternarchorhynchini. Snout elongation was revealed to have occurred in several independent evolutionary lines as the Sternar- chorhynchini, Orthosternarchus and Sternarchorhamphus. Apteronotus is restricted here to A. albifrons + A. jurubidae and postulated to be the sister group to Parapteronotus, which includes P. hasemani + P. macrostomus. “Apteronotus” leptorhynchus is postulated to be the sister group to “Apteronotus”

Within this diversity, however, electric organ discharge (EOD), vary widely across species. interspecific correlations between chirp parameters suggest Modulations of the EOD (i.e. chirps and gradual frequency that mechanistic trade-offs may shape some aspects of rises) also function as active communication signals during signal evolution. In particular, a consistent trade-off social interactions, but they have been studied in relatively between FM and EOD amplitude during chirps is likely to few species. We compared the electrocommunication have influenced the evolution of chirp structure.

Accepted 4 November 2014 For nearly a century, researchers have tried to understand the swimming of aquatic animals in terms of a balance between the forward thrust from swimming movements and drag on the body. Prior approaches Published have failed to provide a separation of these two forces for undulatory swimmers such as lamprey and eels, 10 December 2014 where most parts of the body are simultaneously generating drag and thrust. We nonetheless show that this separation is possible, and delineate its fundamental basis in undulatory swimmers. Our approach unifies a vast diversity of undulatory aquatic animals (anguilliform, sub-carangiform, gymnotiform, bal-istiform, Correspondence and rajiform) and provides design principles for highly agile bioinspired underwater vehicles. This approach has practical utility within biology as well as engineering. It is a predictive tool for use in understanding the role requests for materials of the mechanics of movement in the evolutionary emergence of morphological features relating to should be addressed to locomotion. For example, we demonstrate that the drag-thrust separation framework helps to predict the N.A.P. (n-patankar@ observed height of the ribbon fin of electric knifefish, a diverse group of neotropical fish which are an northwestern.edu) or important model system in sensory neurobiology.
