Ceryle rudis syriaca Roselaar, 1995 was separated from nominaterudis only by its longer wings. As variations in the wing length ofCeryle rudis follow Bergmann's rule, it is suggested thatsyriaca is not recognised as a separate named taxon.
Zusammenfassung Die Trennung vonCeryle rudis syriaca Roselaar, 1996 als eigene Subspezies basiert ausschließlich auf der etwas größeren Flügellänge. Da gezeigt werden konnte, daß die Flügellänge des Graufischers derBergmannschen Regel folgt, wird vorgeschlagen,syriaca wieder zu eliminieren.相似文献

Introduction
Intestinal inflammatory responses play a critical role in the pathogenesis of postoperative ileus (POI). As cannabinoid receptor-1 (CB1) is involved in inhibiting gastrointestinal (GI) motility and anti-inflammation, we aimed to explore its contribution to POI.Methods
Experimental POI was induced in adult female CB1-deficient (CB1–/–) mice and wild-type littermates (C57BL/6N) by standardized small bowel manipulation. Twenty-four hours after surgery, GI transit was assessed by charcoal transport. FITC avidin, F4/80, and myeloperoxidase immunohistochemistry techniques were used to evaluate the inflammatory response in the muscularis of ileum and colon. Expressions of p38MAPK and its phosphorylated form (pp38) in the intestine were determined. Plasma levels of proinflammatory cytokines and chemokines were measured by ELISA as well.Results
POI was characterized by decreased GI transit (p<0.01) and accompanied by a marked intestinal and systematic inflammatory response in wild-type and CB1–/– mice. Increased numbers of inflammatory cells, including macrophages, neutrophils, and mast cells were observed in the muscularis of ileum and colon (p<0.01, or p<0.05). Plasma levels of interleukin-6 (IL-6), cytokine-induced neutrophil chemoattractant-1 (CINC-1/KC), and monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1) were elevated (p<0.01, or p<0.05). Expression of p38 and pp38 increased in the intestine (p<0.01, or p<0.05). CB1–/– mice showed an increased inflammatory response during POI, especially the systemic inflammatory markers, such as IL-6, KC, CINC1, and pp38 expression were increased as compared to those in WT mice (p<0.05).Conclusions
Intestinal motility was inhibited during POI. In this condition, inhibition of motility did not seem to be altered by the absence of CB1 receptors, however, an increased inflammatory response was observed in CB1–/– mice. Hence, CB1 receptor activation rather than inhibition may reduce the inflammatory response in POI, which has a remote potential to relate into reduced inhibition of intestinal motility during POI. 相似文献3.

Abstract The Whimbrel (Numenius phaeopus) is a scarce but regular passage visitor in Turkey. Spring migration has its peak in April, autumn migration in August/September (medians are April 23th and August 29th). Detailed information on flock size, wintering, main resting sites etc. is given and compared with other Middle East countries. 相似文献

Chromosomal rearrangements, which can lead to oncogene activation and tumour suppressor loss, are a hallmark of cancer cells. Such outcomes can result from both the repair and misrepair of DNA ends, which arise from a variety of lesions including DNA double strand breaks (DSBs), collapsed replication forks and dysfunctional telomeres. Here we review the mechanisms by which non-homologous end joining (NHEJ) and homologous recombination (HR) repair pathways can both promote chromosomal rearrangements and also suppress them in response to such lesions, in accordance with their increasingly recognised tumour suppressor function. Further, we consider how chromosomal rearrangements, together with a modular approach towards understanding their etiology, may be exploited for cancer therapy. 相似文献

The epidermis is a stratified tissue composed of different keratinocyte layers that create a barrier protecting the body from external influences, pathogens, and dehydration. The barrier function is mainly achieved by its outermost layer, the stratum corneum. To create a mouse model to study pathophysiological processes in the outermost layers of the epidermis in vivo and in vitro we prepared a construct containing red fluorescent td-Tomato reporter sequence under the control of involucrin promoter and its first intron. Transgenic mice were generated by pronuclear injection and the expression and regulation of the transgene was determined by in vivo imaging and fluorescent microscopy. The promoter targeted the transgene efficiently and specifically into the outermost epidermal layers although weak expression was also found in epithelia of tongue and bladder. The regulation of expression in the epidermis, i.e. fluorescence intensity of the reporter, could be easily followed during wound healing and dermatitis. Thus, these transgenic mice carrying the tdTomato reporter could be used as a valuable tool to study impact of various genes dysregulating the epidermal barrier and to follow effects of therapeutic agents for treatment of skin diseases in vivo. 相似文献

Zusammenfassung Die Arbeit stellt einen Versuch dar, die Zuggeschwindigkeit einer Vogelart anhand von Ringfunden zu ermitteln, wobei Beringung und Wiederfund nicht innerhalb einer Zugperiode liegen müssen. Bei der Flußseeschwalbe werden in beiden Zugperioden die gleichen Zuggeschwindigkeiten erreicht. Im Frühjahr werden Europa und Teile der nordwestafrikanischen Küste aber rascher durchwandert als auf dem Wegzug. Die Aufenthaltsdauer im Winterquartier ist sehr kurz, weit mehr Zeit muß für den Zug aufgewendet werden. Daher wird auch die Mauser in der Migrationsphase abgewickelt. Die Bestimmung der absoluten Zuggeschwindigkeit nach der verwendeten Methode ist mit einem relativ großen Fehler behaftet. Unter Berücksichtigung dieser Fehlerquellen läßt sich die mittlere Maximalgeschwindigkeit auf 80–110 km/Tag schätzen.
The speed of migration of the Common TernSterna hirundo
Summary An attempt is being made to determine the speed of migration of birds by means of recoveries of ringed birds. Ringing and recovery need not to be in one period of migration. The Common Tern reaches the same speed in both migration periods. Europe and parts of the northwest African coast are passed quicker during spring than during fall migration. The Common Tern stays only for a short period in its winter quarters; much more time is spent on migration. Therefore moult takes place during migration. As a result of the method applied the estimation of the absolute speed of migration shows a high rate of error. Hence the figures have to be corrected. This corrected estimation gives 80–110 km/day for the Common Tern as the mean maximum speed.相似文献

A survey of all the major potential habitats in western Turkey showed that medicinal leeches, Hirudo medicinalis L., are widely distributed over the country and are not rare. They occur in practically all suitable habitats and the only region where they were found to be absent is that of the large river deltas in the south of the country (Çukurova deltas, Göksu delta). There may be zoogeographic reasons for this (Taurus mountains barrier). The application of a semi-quantitative survey method using collecting efficiency (number of leeches collected per hour by a single person) allowed a rapid assessment to be made of its status in a large number of wetlands. Leech density varied considerably from wetland to wetland, and the results enabled a ranking of the Turkish wetlands to be made according to their importance for medicinal leeches. Taking both the leech density and the size of leech habitats into account, the largest populations were identified on the Black Sea coast (Kizilirmak delta, Yeilirmak delta and Karagöl Marshes near Sinop) and in inner and south-west Anatolia (Eber Gölü, Karamik and Sultan Marshes). Commercial exploitation for the pharmaceutical industry and for other purposes takes place at only a few places and does not appear to affect the population seriously. However, many populations are threatened by the draining of their habitats. 相似文献
