These modifications reflect alterations in deep-water formation in the Nordic Seas and are therefore coupled with climate changes.
This association has been hypothesized to reflect alterations in neural circuits supporting bottom-up threat processing and top-down executive control.
However, previous studies suggested that TER decrease may reflect alterations in ion channel function [72], [73].
These may reflect alterations in the efficacy of OSN axon coalesence/targeting that could contribute to decreases in olfactory function.
Many of the changes in hepatic gene expression we detected are relatively modest and this may reflect alterations in hepatic development.
The amplitude of the stimulus artifact was also continuously monitored during the recording to ensure that changes in the fEPSP slope did not reflect alterations in tissue resistance.
It thus remains unclear whether Plxdc2 directly affects neurogenesis per se or whether the alterations in Cash1 expression in fact simply reflect alterations in proliferation without a concomitant block on neurogenesis.
To determine whether the reduced MHC class I expression might reflect alterations in the antigen processing and presentation in stem cells, we analyzed the expression of APM molecules by real-time PCR.
Following five reference images, 2.67 ml/kg of the blood pool contrast agent Endorem (Guerbet, France) was injected so that subsequent signal changes would reflect alterations in relative cerebral blood volume (rCBV) [28].
For a matrix protein to be involved in regulation of gene expression, and be involved in the rearrangements seen in nuclei as new programs of gene expression are induced[53], it would need to be part of the nuclear matrix, be able to pinion chromosomes to the matrix, and reflect alterations in gene expression.
This, together with the observation of no weight difference while the mice are maintained on standard chow suggest that the motivational differences we observe between the groups reflect alterations in incentive motivation [53], [54] for preferred, sweet food rather than changes in primary motivation, hunger.
