We assessed the lesion size and associated gliosis as well as the recovery of forelimb sensorimotor abilities in rats exposed to SE, EE promoting somatosensory experience or subjected to dorsal root section selectively depriving the forelimb somatosensory cortex.
An attempt has been made to reverse cachexia and to selectively deprive the tumour of metabolic substrates for energy production by feeding a ketogenic regime, since ketone bodies are considered important in maintaining homeostasis during starvation.
However, access to secondary care has been reported to be selectively poorer in deprived groups (Chaturvedi and Ben-Shlomo, 1995).
This pool is labile, and it is depleted selectively when cells are deprived of cholesterol.
Furthermore, active axons serving the open eye selectively retract and their cortical territory shrink, whereas axons from the deprived eye remain mostly intact [7], [9].
Studies performed in animal models confirmed that wolframin the product of the WFS- 1 gene is selectively produced by the β-cells of the pancreas, and islets deprived of its expression are more prone to apoptosis [ 12, 13].
The findings reported here are consistent with the idea that AD selectively diminishes the metabolic costs of neural areas that might prove extraneous to a deprived forager while sparing the essential areas.
We simulated the impact on national survival estimates of all the cancer registries in England and Wales having selectively failed to register up to 30% of longer-term survivors in the most deprived group, with lower proportions in intermediate groups and assuming complete registration in the most affluent group.
Unlike the STAT3-CKO model, wherein STAT3 activation was absent selectively in the astrocyte lineage throughout pre- and postnatal development, AG490-treated cells were acutely deprived of activated STAT3 for only two hr after many days of normal activity.
