(The following abstract of the original article appeared in record 2010-05656-002.) Recently, a large meta-analysis showed that women tend to recall their dreams more often than men. Despite this robust finding, studies focused on explaining the gender difference in dream recall frequency are scarce. The present findings of an online survey indicate that sex role orientation—expressivity/femininity—was related to dream recall frequency but did not fully explain the gender difference in dream recall frequency. Future studies should investigate other variables—in addition to sex role orientation—like verbal memory, recall of emotional experiences, and/or frequency of talking about emotional matters that might play a role in explaining the gender difference in dream recall.

The comprehension of metal homeostasis in plants requires the identification of molecular markers linked to stress tolerance. Proteomic changes in leaves and cambial zone of Populus tremula×P. alba (717‐1B4 genotype) were analyzed after 61 days of exposure to cadmium (Cd) 360 mg/kg soil dry weight in pot‐soil cultures. The treatment led to an acute Cd stress with a reduction of growth and photosynthesis. Cd stress induced changes in the display of 120 spots for leaf tissue and 153 spots for the cambial zone. It involved a reduced photosynthesis, resulting in a profound reorganisation of carbon and carbohydrate metabolisms in both tissues. Cambial cells underwent stress from the Cd actually present inside the tissue but also a deprivation of photosynthates caused by leaf stress. An important tissue specificity of the response was observed, according to the differences in cell structures and functions. 相似文献
A sodium ion efflux, together with a proton influx and an inside-positive ΔΨ, was observed during NADH-respiration by Rhodothermus marinus membrane vesicles. Proton translocation was monitored by fluorescence spectroscopy and sodium ion transport by 23Na-NMR spectroscopy. Specific inhibitors of complex I (rotenone) and of the dioxygen reductase (KCN) inhibited the proton and the sodium ion transport, but the KCN effect was totally reverted by the addition of menaquinone analogues, indicating that both transports were catalyzed by complex I. We concluded that the coupling ion of the system is the proton and that neither the catalytic reaction nor the establishment of the delta-pH are dependent on sodium, but the presence of sodium increases proton transport. Moreover, studies of NADH oxidation at different sodium concentrations and of proton and sodium transport activities allowed us to propose a model for the mechanism of complex I in which the presence of two different energy coupling sites is suggested. 相似文献
The limbs of the three-toed skink Chalcides chalcides are reduced to such a degree that the three digits are too small for skeletochronology. This study, performed on animals collected near Isernia (central Italy), describes the structure of the caudal vertebrae, which are often naturally lost due to autotomy, in order to determine whether they can be used to obtain data on age and growth with skeletochronological techniques. The reliability of the autotomous caudal vertebrae for skeletochronology was verified by performing skeletochronological analyses also on femora. Although the identification of the lines of arrested growth (LAGs) was easier in femora than in autotomous caudal vertebrae, a high correspondence of the LAG count between the two bones was observed. Females were larger and lived longer than males (4 and 3 years, respectively). For both sexes, the snout vent length (SVL) was significantly correlated with age. For both sexes, sexual maturity was attained after two hibernations from birth, beginning at the 20th month of age. At first reproduction, males had an SVL of 91–106 mm and females one of 111–150 mm. Von Bertalanffy growth curves of age versus SVL showed that females had slower growth rates than males for attaining their asymptotic SVL (females: 197 mm; males: 143 mm). The results provide the first data on age and growth of C. chalcide, and show that autotomous caudal vertebrae are reliable alternatives for obtaining such data for limb-reduced reptiles, avoiding the need to sacrifice or disable animals, as occurs when long bones are used. 相似文献
1. 1. The influence of ethnic differences is discussed with reference to the following issues.
2. 2. It has been found that total numbers of active sweat glands increase in tropical populations compared with people from northern latitudes.
3. 3. It has also been observed that the active sweat glands of Eskimos are fewer than those of Caucasians.
4. 4. The rate of the evaporated sweat loss was calculated by measuring body weight loss and it was found that the evaporated sweat loss of Caucasians is larger than that of Japanese in the same climate.
5. 5. Meteorological factors might have been responsible for the smaller loss in Japanese compared with that of Japanese-Americans.
6. 6. Under the same experimental conditions, it was observed that there were little or no differences between the Caucasians and Negros.
以浙江省安吉县毛竹(Phyllostachys edulis)林生态系统为研究对象,利用涡度相关技术进行观测,获取2011年毛竹林的水汽通量数据,同时结合常规气象观测数据,分析了水汽通量全年变化。结果表明:毛竹林全年水汽通量基本为正值,月尺度上,水汽通量呈单峰型变化趋势,且各月的最大值均在12:00—14:00出现,呈现一定规律性,7月(0.1116 g m-2s-1)最高,12月(0.0209 g m-2s-1)最低;季节尺度上,夏季最高(0.0873 g m-2s-1),呈现典型单峰型变化趋势,春秋季(均为0.0541 g m-2s-1)次之,变化特征与夏季相似,冬季最低(0.0221 g m-2s-1),曲线变化复杂,波动较大。毛竹林全年蒸散量占全年降水量48.26%。2、4、5、11、12月蒸散量略大于降水量,其余月份蒸散量均小于降水量,6月份降水量与蒸散量差别最大。季节尺度上,对毛竹林水汽通量与净辐射进行回归关系分析,夏季最大,R2为0.6111,秋季为0.5295,春季为0.2605,冬季最小0.0455。通过F检验,水汽通量与净辐射有极显著线性关系。在植物生长期,毛竹林水汽通量随饱和水汽压差的增大而增大,植物发育成熟后,当饱和水汽压差增大到一定程度时,其增大反而抑制了水分的蒸散。 相似文献
RP135 is a 24-residue peptide corresponding to the principal neutralizing determinant of the envelope glycoprotein gp120 of the human immunodeficiency virus type 1. We have studied the conformation of RP135 in complex with a neutralizing antibody 0.5 raised against gp120 by 2D NMR spectroscopy. The antigenic determinant recognized by this antibody was mapped using a combination of HOHAHA and ROESY measurements, in which resonances of the Fab and the tightly bound peptide residues are eliminated and the mobile residues of the bound peptide are sequentially assigned. We found that residues Ser6 - Thr19 are part of the epitope, while Lys5 and Ile20 are at its boundaries. Difference spectroscopy was applied to study the conformation of the bound peptide representing the epitope within the 52 kDa of the Fab complex. Specific residues of the peptide were deuterated or replaced and the difference between the NOESY spectrum of the complex with the unlabeled residue and the NOESY spectrum of the complex with the modified residue revealed the interactions of the labeled residue both within the peptide and with the Fab fragment. A total of 122 distance restraints derived from the difference spectra enabled the calculation of the structure of the bound peptide. The peptide forms a 10-residue loop, while the two segments flanking this loop interact extensively with each other and possibly form anti-parallel -strands. The loop conformation could be observed due to the unusual large size (17 residues) of the antigenic determinant recognized by 0.5. 相似文献
