The distribution of noradrenergic neurons in the brain of the threespined stickleback was demonstrated with the indirect peroxidase‐antiperoxidase (PAP) immunohistochemical method with antibodies against a noradrenaline‐bovine serum albumin conjugate. Noradrenergic neuronal somata were exclusively located in the isthmal area of the brain stem and in the lower medulla. Noradrenergic varicose axons

The distribution of dopamine in the brain of the teleost Gasterosteus aculeatus L. was demonstrated with the indirect peroxidase-antiperoxidase immunohistochemical method using highly specific antibodies against a dopamine-glutaraldehyde-thyroglobulin conjugate. Dopamine-immunoreactive (DAir) neuronal somata were observed in all main brain regions. In the forebrain, DAir neurons were located in a

The distribution of putative histaminergic neurons in the brain of a teleost, the three-spined stickleback, was investigated by means of immunocytochemistry using specific antibodies against histamine (HA), and conventional microscopy as well as confocal laser scanning microscopy. Histamine-immunoreactive (HAir) neurons form discrete populations ventral to the nucleus of the posterior recess (NRP)

The presence of galanin‐like substances and their relation to substance P‐, vasotocin‐, and isotocin‐immunoreactive neurons and fibers in the brain of teleosts was investigated with immunohistochemical methods. Two specific antisera against synthetic porcine galanin (GAL) revealed cell bodies and fibers in the brain of four different teleost species (Salmo salar, Carassius carassius, Gasterosteus

The subcellular localization of neuronal nitric oxide (NO) synthase (NOS)-immunoreactive (NOSir) elements in the brain of the Atlantic salmon was investigated by means of electron microscopy and confocal laser scanning microscopy. NOSir structures are present only in neuronal elements. In neuronal processes, strong NOS immunoreactivity was mainly localized within synaptic vesicles or seen as a den

The presence and distribution of the nitric oxide (NO) converting enzyme, NO synthase (NOS), was investigated in the brain of a teleost, the Atlantic salmon. Both NOS immunoreactive and NADPH diaphorase positive, non-neuronal and neuronal cell bodies, fibers and putative nerve terminals were identified throughout the brain. Even so, the staining was not identical in all regions. NO, synthesized by

Lars E O Svenssons kritik mot att Riksbanken inte har uppnått inflationsmålet har lett till en infekterad debatt mellan ledande ekonomer. Vår genomgång av hans kalkyler visar att de är bräckliga och missvisande, skriver ekonomiforskarna Lars Jonung och Fredrik N G Andersson.

Question: How does reproductive timing in annual social insects evolve under intraspecific exploitation competition and in response to a changing environment? The latter includes shifts in resource abundance, mortality, season length, and resource peak timing, factors often associated with climate change. Background: Climate and land use are changing. Evolutionary ecology must learn to predict how

Metal carbides have shown great promise in a wide range of applications due to their unique catalytic, electrocatalytic and magnetic properties. However, the scalable production of dispersible metal carbide nanoparticles remains a challenge. Here, we report a simple and scalable route to dispersible iron carbide (Fe3C) nanoparticles. This uses MgO nanoparticles as a removable 'cast' to synthesize

Historisk översikt över professorshemmens roll som studentbostäder under främst 1600- och 1700-talen men även med senare exempel.

We explore magnetic order in the quantum spin chain compound SrCo2V2O8 up to 14.9 T and down to 50 mK, using single-crystal neutron diffraction. Upon cooling in zero-field, commensurate antiferromagnetic (C-AFM) order with modulation vector=(0, 0, 1) develops below T N≃5.0K. Applying an external magnetic field (H∥c axis) destabilizes this C-AFM order, leading to an order-disorder transition betwee

Aim: Self-efficacy for writing is an important motivational factor and considered to predict writing performance. Self-efficacy for narrative writing has been sparsely studied, and few studies focus on the effects of writing intervention on self-efficacy. Additionally, there is a lack of validated measures of self-efficacy for elementary school students. In a previous study, we found that a traine

In spite of the fact that negation has been the focus of many studies, the way it is processed in human communication still eludes us. Previous studies of negation using event-related potentials (ERPs) have reported inconclusive results as to whether or not negation poses difficulties for processing. While some have found that negation is initially ignored and incongruities in negated sentences do

Introduction: School-based bullying is an omnipresent problem, but is less frequent when bystanders are inclined to defend victims. This makes it important to focus on motivation to intervene in bullying. Methods: 202 students (Mage=16.44 years, 52% boys) from public Swedish high schools participated in a vignette experiment. Students were randomized to one of two vignettes (victim belonging to/no

The distribution of the neuropeptides methionine‐ and leucine‐enkephalins, substance P, FMRFamide, neuropeptide Y, and vasoactive intestinal peptide, as well as the biogenic amine serotonin was studied in the optic tectum of the Atlantic salmon by means of immunocytochemistry. Peroxidase‐antiperoxidase and indirect immunofluorescence methods were used to compare the differential laminar distributi

Immunocytochemistry using antibodies against Met-enkephalin and Leu-enkephalin has demonstrated a group of large enkephalin-immunoreactive neurons in the nucleus of the rostral mesencephalic tegmentum (mRMT) of two teleost fish, Salmo gairdneri and Salmo salar. Injections of cobalt-lysine in the medial optic tectum retrogradely labeled the above group of tegmental neurons. Tegmental neurons were l
