The impact of psychological stressors on the progression motor and non-motor disturbances observed in Parkinson's disease (PD) has received little attention. Given that PD likely results from many different environmental "hits", we were interested whether a chronic unpredictable stressor regimen would act additively or possibly even synergistically to augment toxicant, paraquat, which previously been linked PD. Our findings support contention paraquat itself acted as systemic stressor, with...

Little is known of the age-dependent and long-term consequences low exposure levels herbicide dopaminergic toxicant, paraquat. Thus, we assessed dose-dependent effects paraquat using a typical short-term (3 week) procedure, followed by an assessment chronic (16 weeks) to very dose (1/10th what previously induced neuronal damage). Short term treatment dose-dependently deficits in locomotion, sucrose preference Y-maze performance. Chronic had different pattern that were also dependent upon age...

Meiosis is required for the formation of gametes in all sexually reproducing species and process well conserved across tree life. However, meiosis sensitive to a variety external factors, which can impact chromosome pairing, recombination, fertility. For example, optimal temperature successful varies between plants animals. This suggests that sensitive, natural selection may act on variation meiotic success as organisms adapt different environmental conditions. To understand how alters...
