Expression of aggressiveness modulates mesencephalic c-fos activation during a social interaction test in Japanese quail (Coturnix japonica).

Caliva JM, Falkenburger Melleu F, Marino-Neto J, Marin RH, Kembro JM.
Behavioural brain research. 2019 Jul;367()221-229.
It is well known that during a social conflict, interactions are dependent on the animal's propensity to behave aggressively as well as the behavior of the opponent. However, discriminating between these two confounding factors was difficult. Recently, a Social Interaction (SI) test using photocastr

Mitochondrial mRNA translation initiation contributes to oxidative metabolism in the myocardia of aged, obese mice.

Lee DE, Perry RA, Brown JL, Rosa-Caldwell ME, Brown LA, Haynie WS, Rajaram N, Washington TA, Greene NP.
Experimental gerontology. 2019 Jul;121()62-70.
Being both advanced in age and obese each contribute to cardiac hypertrophy in a unique manner. Electron transport complexes I and IV are implicated in deficient electron transport during cardiomyopathies and contain the majority of protein subunits that are transcribed and translated by machinery l

Endoplasmic reticulum stress and unfolded protein response profile in quadriceps of sarcopenic patients with respiratory diseases.

Barreiro E, Salazar-Degracia A, Sancho-Muñoz A, Gea J.
Journal of cellular physiology. 2019 Jul;234(7)11315-11329.
Impaired muscle strength and mass (sarcopenia) are common in patients with respiratory cachexia, namely chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and in lung cancer (LC)-cachexia. Misfolded/unfolded proteins in endoplasmic reticulum (ER) induce the compensatory unfolded protein response (UPR). Ex

「アブミ骨筋反射検査」

　　[★]

英: stapedial reflex test SR test
同: 耳小骨筋反射検査 acoustic reflex test AR test、鐙骨筋反射検査
関: アブミ骨筋、インピーダンスオージオメトリー。鼓膜張筋

概念

インピーダンスオージオメトリーの1つ。
鼓膜のインピーダンス(コンプライアンス)からアブミ骨筋反射が起こっているかどうかを判定する検査。
外耳に入れる音をだんだん高くしていきある一定以上の音が鼓膜に届くと、アブミ骨筋反射が起こりアブミ骨を牽引して内耳への伝音を妨げる。同時に、これにより(出典不明であるが)鼓膜の振動も抑制される。このため、アブミ骨筋反射が起こったときに鼓膜のインピーダンスの増大(コンプライアンスの低下)として観察される。
アブミ骨筋反射をおこす音の閾値は75-95dB(acoustic reflex threshold, ART)
