DOPAMINE D1 AND D2 RECEPTOR IMMUNOREACTIVITIES IN THE ARCUATE-MEDIAN EMINENCE COMPLEX AND THEIR LINK TO THE TUBERO-INFUNDIBULAR DOPAMINE NEURONS

Dopamine D1 and D2 receptor immunoreactivities in the arcuate-median eminence complex and their link to the tubero-infundibular dopamine neurons

Dopamine D1 and D2 receptor immunohistochemistry and Golgi techniques were used to study the structure of the adult rat arcuate-median eminence complex, and determine the distribution of the Keyboard Overlay dopamine D1 and D2 receptor immunoreactivities therein, particularly in relation to the tubero-infundibular dopamine neurons.Punctate dopamine

Down-regulation of Fusarium oxysporum endogenous genes by Host-Delivered RNA interference enhances disease resistance

Fusarium oxysporum is a devastating pathogen causing extensive yield losses in a variety of crops and development of sustainable, environmentally friendly methods to improve crop resistance is crucial.We have used Host-Derived RNA interference (HD-RNAi) technology to partially silence three different genes (FOW2, FRP1 and OPR) in the hemi-biotrophi

Shaft Crack Identification Based on Vibration and AE Signals

The shaft crack is one of the main serious malfunctions that often occur in rotating machinery.However, it is difficult to locate the crack and determine the depth of the crack.In this paper, the acoustic emission (AE) signal and vibration response are used to diagnose the crack.The wavelet transform is applied to AE signal to decompose into a seri
