The rate of amino acid incorporation into the mouse retina proteins was measured in dynamics of dark adaptation and at different terms of their stimulation by light. It was found that variations in dry weight of the ganglion retinal cells and in the incorporation of amino acids into their proteins occurred rhythmically, with the period of about one hour. 相似文献

Overt exploration or sampling behaviors, such as whisking, sniffing, and saccadic eye movements, are often characterized by a rhythm. In addition, the electrophysiologically recorded theta or alpha phase predicts global detection performance. These two observations raise the intriguing possibility that covert selective attention samples from multiple stimuli rhythmically. To investigate this possibility, we measured change detection performance on two simultaneously presented stimuli, after resetting attention to one of them. After a reset flash at one stimulus location, detection performance fluctuated rhythmically. When the flash was presented in the right visual field, a 4 Hz rhythm was directly visible in the time courses of behavioral performance at both stimulus locations, and the two rhythms were in antiphase. A left visual field flash exerted only partial reset on performance and induced rhythmic fluctuation at higher frequencies (6-10 Hz). These findings show that selective attention samples multiple stimuli rhythmically, and they position spatial attention within the family of exploration behaviors. 相似文献

In Phaseolus vulgaris L., the shoot displays a revolving movementthat occurs rhythmically in a highly regular manner. Previousdata led to think that revolving movement is driven by turgorand volume changes in the epidermal cells of the bending zone.To document this hypothesis, the time course of in situ celllength variations in the bending zone was measured during themovement of the shoot and related to the phase of the revolvingmovement. Each ten minutes, a photograph of cells was takenand the revolving movement was simultaneously recorded usingtime-lapse microphotography and video-monitoring. In the movingpart of the shoot, epidermal cells displayed partly reversiblelength variations during their growth. Data were processed byFourier analysis to determine whether or not a periodicity exists.Rhythm in cell length variations was evidenced only when initialcell lengths were ranged between 60 and 120 µM. In thiscase, the period corresponds to that of the revolving movement. Thus, revolving movement is related to partly reversible lengthvariations in the cells of the bending zone. These results agreewith the hypothesis of an involvement of turgor mediated volumechanges in the revolving movement (Received September 16, 1997; Accepted June 18, 1998) 相似文献

Serotonin regulates rhythmic whisking 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5
Many rodents explore their environment by rhythmically palpating objects with their mystacial whiskers. These rhythmic whisker movements ("whisking"; 5-9 Hz) are thought to be regulated by an unknown brainstem central pattern generator (CPG). We tested the hypothesis that serotonin (5-HT) inputs to whisking facial motoneurons (wFMNs) are part of this CPG. In response to exogenous serotonin, wFMNs recorded in vitro fire rhythmically at whisking frequencies, and selective 5-HT2 or 5-HT3 receptor antagonists suppress this rhythmic firing. In vivo, stimulation of brainstem serotonergic raphe nuclei evokes whisker movements. Unilateral infusion of selective 5-HT2 or 5-HT3 receptor antagonists suppresses ipsilateral whisking and substantially alters the frequencies and symmetry of whisker movements. These findings suggest that serotonin is both necessary and sufficient to generate rhythmic whisker movements and that serotonergic premotoneurons are part of a whisking CPG. 相似文献

According to one of hypotheses proposed for explaining mechanisms of sound signal recognition in insects, their CNS contains a group of rhythmically active neurons that function as a reference standard for comparison with perceived acoustic information. To check this hypothesis, the spontaneous neuronal activity and its changes in perception of conspecific and heterospecific signals (CS and HS) were analyzed in the CNS of two sympatric grasshopper species Tettigonia cantans and Metrioptera roeselii. The activity of individual neurons was assayed in fixed and freely moving insects. The results of the experiment have shown that in the thoracic part of the CNS there is a group of rhythmically active neurons that do not directly respond to sound signal but readjust their impulses under effect of its action. On presentation of CS the following reactions were observed: attenuation or enhancement of impulses; stabilization or destabilization of rhythm; regular increase or decrease in interspike intervals; phasic readjustments leading to synchronization of impulses with sound stimuli (pulses). No similar alterations were usually produced by HS; still, if they did appear, they were less pronounced or of opposite direction. These data indicate that the grasshopper auditory system affects markedly the rhythmically active neurons, their reaction depending considerably on temporal organization of sound signals. Selectivity of these reactions allows us to suggest that the rhythmically active neurons are directly related to the neuronal networks providing the sound signal recognition.Translated from Zhurnal Evolyutsionnoi Biokhimii i Fiziologii, Vol. 40, No. 6, 2004, pp. 531–538.Original Russian Text Copyright © 2004 by Zhantiev, Korsunovskaya, Chukanov.To the 100-Anniversary of A.

We investigated the regulation of the pharyngeal and upper esophageal reflexes during swallowing in eel. By retrograde tracing
from the muscles, the motoneurons of the upper esophageal sphincter (UES) were located caudally within the mid-region of the
glossopharyngeal-vagal motor complex (mGVC). In contrast, the motoneurons innervating the pharyngeal wall were localized medially
within mGVC. Sensory pharyngeal fibers in the vagal nerve terminated in the caudal region of the viscerosensory column (cVSC).
Using the isolated brain, we recorded 51 spontaneously active neurons within mGVC. These neurons could be divided into rhythmically
(n = 8) and continuously (n = 43) firing units. The rhythmically firing neurons seemed to be restricted medially, whereas the continuously firing neurons
were found caudally within mGVC. The rhythmically firing neurons were activated by the stimulation of the cVSC. In contrast,
the stimulation of the cVSC inhibited firing of most, but not all the continuously firing neurons. The inhibitory effect was
blocked by prazosin in 17 out of 38 neurons. Yohimbine also blocked the cVSC-induced inhibition in five of prazosin-sensitive
neurons. We suggest that the neurons in cVSC inhibit the continuously firing motoneurons to relax the UES and stimulate the
rhythmically firing neurons to constrict the pharynx simultaneously. 相似文献

The activity patterns of rhythmically firing neurons in monkey primary somatosensory cortex (SI) were studied during trained wrist movements that were performed in response to palmar vibration. Of 1,222 neurons extracellularly recorded in SI, 129 cells (11%) discharged rhythmically (at 30 Hz) during maintained wrist position. During the initiation of vibratory-cued movements, neuronal activity usually decreased at 25 ms after vibration onset followed by an additional decrease in activity at 60 ms prior to movement onset. Rhythmically firing neurons are not likely to be integrate-and-fire neurons because, during activity changes, their rhythmic firing pattern was disrupted rather than modulated. The activity pattern of rhythmically firing neurons was complimentary to that of quickly adapting SI neurons recorded during the performance of this task (Nelson et al., 1991). Moreover, disruptions of rhythmic activity of individual SI neurons were similar to those reported previously for local field potential (LFP) oscillations in sensorimotor cortex during trained movements (Sanes and Donoghue, 1993). However, rhythmic activity of SI neurons did not wax and wane like LFP oscillations (Murthy and Fetz, 1992; Sanes and Donoghue, 1993). It has been suggested that fast (20–50 Hz) cortical oscillations may be initiated by inhibitory interneurons (Cowan and Wilson, 1994; Llinas et al., 1991; Stern and Wilson, 1994). We suggest that rhythmically firing neurons may tonically inhibit quickly adapting neurons and release them from the inhibition at go-cue onsets and prior to voluntary movements. It is possible that rhythmically active neurons may evoke intermittent oscillations in other cortical neurons and thus regulate cortical population oscillations. 相似文献

Circadian clocks coordinate physiological and behavioral rhythms that allow the organism to anticipate and adapt to daily changes in environment. The clock-driven cellular oscillations are highly tissue specific to efficiently fine-tune local signaling, manage energy use and segregate incompatible processes. In most peripheral tissues, food acts as the main cue that entrains the oscillations to external time. Food intake and energy balance are under control of endocannabinoid (EC) signaling. Despite this obvious link between the circadian and EC systems, evidence for their interaction started to emerge only recently. We used targeted lipidomics to analyze circadian variations in EC tone in rat plasma, liver and adrenal tissue. The results provide the evidence that ECs, monoacylglycerols, N-acylethanolamines and their precursors oscillate with a tissue-specific circadian phase in plasma and liver. We then identified a set of rhythmically expressed genes likely responsible for the variations in EC tissue tone. In contrast to the liver, EC levels did not oscillate in the adrenal glands. Instead, we revealed that local EC receptor genes are under circadian regulation. To explore the impact of metabolic signals on expression of these genes, we used daytime-restricted feeding schedule. We subsequently showed that daytime feeding strongly suppressed liver-expressed fatty acid binding protein 5 (Fabp5) and adrenal-expressed non-canonical endocannabinoid receptors Gpr55 and Trpv1, whereas it upregulated liver-expressed Trpv1 and glycerophosphodiester phosphodiesterase 1 (Gde1). Our results reveal tissue-specific mechanisms involved in interaction between endocannabinoid signaling, circadian system and metabolism. 相似文献

Mammalian circadian rhythms are entrained by light pulses that induce phosphorylation events in the suprachiasmatic nuclei (SCN). Ca2+-dependent enzymes are known to be involved in circadian phase shifting. In this paper, we show that calcium/calmodulin-dependent kinase II (CaMKII) is rhythmically phosphorylated in the SCN both under entrained and free-running (constant dark) conditions while neuronal nitric oxide synthase (nNOS) is rhythmically phosphorylated in the SCN only under entrained conditions. Both p-CaMKII and p-NOS (specifically phosphorylated by CaMKII) levels peak during the day or subjective day. Light pulses administered during the subjective night, but not during the day, induced rapid phosphorylation of both enzymes. Moreover, we found an inhibitory effect of KN-62 and KN-93, both CaMKII inhibitors, on light-induced nNOS activity and nNOS phosphorylation respectively, suggesting a direct pathway between both enzymes which is at least partially responsible of photic circadian entrainment. 相似文献

Melatonin is a biogenic amine, known from almost all phyla of living organisms. In vertebrates melatonin is produced rhythmically in the pinealocytes of the pineal gland, relaying information of the environmental light/dark cycle to the organism. With regard to crustaceans only a handful of studies exist that has attempted to identify the presence and possible daily variation of this substance. We set out to investigate whether in the crab Neohelice granulata melatonin was produced in the optic lobes of these animals and underwent rhythmic fluctuations related to the daily light/dark cycle. Our experimental animals were divided into three groups exposed to different photoperiods: normal photoperiod (12L:12D), constant dark (DD), and constant light (LL). The optic lobes were collected every 4 hours over a 24-h period for melatonin quantification by radioimmunoassay (RIA). N. granulata kept under 12 L:12D and DD conditions, showed daily melatonin variations with two peaks of abundance (p<0.05), one during the day and another, more extensive one, at night. Under LL-conditions no significant daily variations were noticeable (p>0.05). These results demonstrate the presence of a daily biphasic fall and rise of melatonin in the eyestalk of N. granulata and suggest that continuous exposure to light inhibits the production of melatonin synthesis. 相似文献

The electromyographic activity of the glossal, suprahyoid, infrahyoid, and pharyngeal muscles was examined during spontaneous respiration in rabbits anesthetized with ketamine hydrochloride. This activity was then correlated with phases of the respiratory cycle. Our findings indicate that the overwhelming majority of the muscles comprising these groups show activity that increased during inspiration and returns to the background level during expiration and the end-expiratory pause. The exceptions are the inferior pharyngeal constrictor muscle, which demonstrates increased activity during expiration and the end-expiratory pause, and the stylohyoid major and digastric muscles, whose activity was not modulated with respiration. In general, the results obtained under ketamine anesthesia are in agreement with the studies on a more limited number of muscles in humans during sleep or in animal studies utilizing light anesthesia. Furthermore, the use of ketamine avoids the central suppressant effects produced by barbituate anesthesia. It has been argued that the upper airway muscles are rhythmically active during respiration to maintain the patency of the upper airway. Both the number of muscles that are rhythmically active and their strict correlation with specific phases of the respiratory cycle suggest that the forces exerted on the upper airway are complex and that peak tension is generated during inspiration. Further studies are required to evaluate the effects of ketamine anesthesia on these upper airway muscles before this rabbit model can be utilized to examine respiratory disorders of the upper airway. 相似文献
