Feeding and growth variations affect δ13C and δ15N budgets during ontogeny in a lepidopteran larva by Charberet, Samuel M., Maria, Annick, Siaussat, David, Gounand, Isabelle, Mathieu, Jérôme

“…The various growth rates that were induced from these starvation levels resulted in a ∼ 1-1.5‰ within-trophic level variation of the trophic fractionation in both carbon and nitrogen, which is substantial compared to the 3-4‰ classically associated with between-trophic levels variations. Hence starved animals sampled  in natura may be ranked at a higher trophic level than they really are. …”

IGF-1 Restores Visual Cortex Plasticity in Adult Life by Reducing Local GABA Levels by José Fernando Maya-Vetencourt, Laura Baroncelli, Alessandro Viegi, Ettore Tiraboschi, Eero Castren, Antonino Cattaneo, Lamberto Maffei

“…Exogenous administration of IGF-1 in the adult visual cortex, indeed, restores the susceptibility of cortical neurons to monocular deprivation and promotes the recovery of normal visual functions in adult amblyopic animals. These effects were accompanied by a marked reduction of intracortical GABA levels. …”

Effects of (±) 3,4-Methylenedioxymethamphetamine (MDMA) on Sleep and Circadian Rhythms by Una D. McCann, George A. Ricaurte

“…In particular, MDMA has been found to damage brain serotonin (5-HT) neurons in a variety of animal species, including nonhuman primates, with growing evidence that humans are also susceptible to MDMA-induced brain 5-HT neurotoxicity. 5-HT is an important modulator of sleep and circadian rhythms and, therefore, individuals who sustain MDMA-induced 5-HT neurotoxicity may be at risk for developing chronic abnormalities in sleep and circadian patterns. …”
