Animals dynamically adjust their physiology and behavior to survive in changing environments, seasonal migration is one life stage that demonstrates these dynamic adjustments. As birds migrate between breeding wintering areas, they incur physiological demands challenge antioxidant system. Migrating presumably respond oxidative challenges by up-regulating protective endogenous systems or accumulating dietary antioxidants at stopover sites, although our understanding of the pre-migration...
Objective: Subanesthetic ketamine rapidly reduces depressive symptoms and suicidal ideation in some depressed patients. Its effects on neurocognitive functioning such individuals with significant is not well understood, even though certain deficits are associated suicide behavior beyond clinical symptoms. Methods: In this study, patients clinically (n = 78) underwent neuropsychological testing before 1 day after double-blind treatment intravenous 39) or midazolam 39). A subgroup randomized...
Abstract Migratory birds engage in 2 periods of endurance flight annually as they travel between summer breeding and overwintering grounds, such flights likely incur oxidative costs. These costs may differ fall spring migration, especially for females who must prepare egg laying spring. The objective this study a migratory bird was to test proposed hypotheses about how key components the female’s antioxidant system response training dietary supplementation. We hand raised female European...
Birds, like other vertebrates, rely on a robust antioxidant system to protect themselves against oxidative imbalance caused by energy-intensive activities such as flying. Such challenges may be especially acute for females during spring migration, they must pay the costs of flight while preparing reproduction; however, little previous work has examined how female migrants responds dietary antioxidants and regular We fed two diets European starlings, one supplemented with without, then flew...
Las migraciones anuales son energéticamente demandantes para aves paserinas migratorias y representan un periodo potencialmente estresante en su ciclo anual, particularmente los periodos breves de reabastecimiento sus sitios parada migratoria. Habitats ribereños cerca Grandes Lagos del este Norteamérica mantienen a muchas terrestres migratorias; sin embargo, factores ambientales—incluyendo disponibilidad comida tiempo impredecible—puede tener impacto la salud el estado fisiológico estas...
