... these genes in the apteronotid telencephalon. Results: There were, in the case of all three genes, good similarities between the apteronotid and human amino acid sequences: FoxP2 ‐ 78%, Otx1 ‐ 54%, FoxO3 ‐ 71%. The functional domains of these genes was conserved to a far greater extent suggesting ...

Using Drosophila, we found that increased sleep in young flies was associated with an elevated arousal threshold and resistance to sleep deprivation.

The Role of Kisspeptin Signaling in Reproduction

Similarly, sustained kisspeptin activity in women failed to elicit LH or FSH release by day 14 (49). In contrast, pulsatile delivery of kisspeptin in agonadal juvenile monkeys did not suppress go ...
