Cannabinoid type 1 receptor modulates intestinal propulsion by an attenuation of intestinal motor responses within the myenteric part of the peristal…
2007
Cannabinoid-1 (CB1) receptor activation affects gastrointestinal propulsion in vivo. It was our aim to further characterize the involved myenteric mechanisms in vivo and in vitro. In CB1(-/-) mice and wild-type littermates we performed in vivo transit experiments by charcoal feeding and in vitro electrophysiological recordings in mouse small intestinal smooth muscle. Ascending neuronal contraction (ANC) following electrical field stimulation was studied in rat ileum in a partitioned organ bath separating the aboral stimulation site from the oral recording site. The knockout animals displayed an accelerated upper gastrointestinal transit compared to control animals. The CB1 receptor antagoni…
Kuģa karoga valsts starptautisko vides tiesību pienākums nodrošināt tās kuģu likumīgu zvejniecību citas valsts ekskluzīvajā ekonomiskajā zonā
2020
Nelikumīga zvejniecība ir globāla problēma, kas rada lielus zaudējumus piekrastes valstu ekonomikām, kaitē videi un rada problēmas sabiedrības nodrošinātībai ar pārtiku. Lielākā daļa zvejniecības notiek plašajās un zvejas resursiem bagātajās ekskluzīvajās ekonomiskajās zonās. Lai gan piekrastes valstīm ir tiesiski garantētas iespējas novērst citu valstu zvejas kuģu nelikumīgu zvejniecību tās ekskluzīvajā ekonomiskajā zonā, to tehniskās iespējas faktiski novērst nelikumīgu zvejniecību ir ierobežotas. Tāpēc ir nepieciešamība pēc zvejas kuģu karoga valstu atbildības. Darba mērķis ir atklāt karoga valsts pienākumu tiesisko pamatu, kā arī noskaidrot šo pienākumu saturu un valsts atbildības par t…

Atkvēlināšanas ietekme uz struktūru ar ātrajiem 36S joniem apstarotos LiF monokristālos. Sušinska J., darba vadītāja M.Sc. Phys. Bikše L., Bakalaura darbs, 39 lappuses, 24 attēli, 4 tabulas, 1 pielikums, 31 literatūras avoti. Latviešu valodā. Pētījuma ietvaros tika novērtēta ar 410 MeV 36S joniem apstarotā litija fluorīda struktūra un morfoloģija pirms un pēc atkvēlināšanas ar atomspēka, optisko un skenējošo elektronu mikroskopu. Tika novērtētas masas izmaiņas karsēšanas ietekmē ar termogravimetrijas metodi, un ar optiskās absorbcijas spektroskopiju novērtēta temperatūras ietekme uz defektiem - krāsu centriem un koloīdiem. Apstarotajā un neapstarotajā zonā tika novēroti neidentificēti defek…

H-He collision-induced satellite in the Lyman alpha profile of DBA white dwarf stars
2020
The spectra of helium-dominated white dwarf stars with hydrogen in their atmosphere present a distinctive broad feature centered around 1160~\AA\/ in the blue wing of the Lyman-$\alpha$ line. It is extremely apparent in WD 1425+540 recently observed with HST COS. With new theoretical line profiles based on ab initio atomic interaction potentials we show that this feature is a signature of a collision-induced satellite due to an asymptotically forbidden transition. This quasi-molecular spectral satellite is crucial to understanding the asymmetrical shape of Lyman-$\alpha$ seen in this and other white dwarf spectra. Our previous work predicting this absorption feature was limited by molecular…
A auto-eficácia na adaptação aos desafios do envelhecimento
2017
Este artigo aborda a problemática do envelhecimento com qualidade de vida e bem-estar, estudada no contexto de adultos portugueses que frequentam Universidades Seniores em Portugal. Pretende-se especificamente, numa análise exploratória, conhecer a perceção da auto-eficácia na compreensão do bem-estar e qualidade de vida destas pessoas, através do construto de bem-estar subjetivo (BES). Para o efeito, foi realizado um trabalho empírico de natureza não experimental correlacional, que abrangeu 214 alunos de 7 Universidades Seniores portuguesas, com idades compreendidas entre os 51 e 86 anos, média de 68,26 anos. Os dados foram recolhidos por questionário, através dos seguintes instrumentos: q…
DISTRIBUTION OF CARBON STARS IN THE GALAXY
2018
A search for new faint carbon (C) stars in the Polar region δ > 55o has been accomplished by obtaining objective prism spectra in the near infrared 550 -- 900 nm on images of CCD camera of Baldone Schmidt telescope of Astrophysical observatory. The positions of stars having color indices (J – K) > 1.3 mag in Two Micron All Sky Infrared Survey (2MASS) were selected to pick out suspicious carbon stars.Our survey is limited in brightness by J < 10 mag. 24 new carbon stars were found and their characteristics obtained. The correlative relation between Teff and spectral gradient [757 – 685] was confirmed. Such characteristics as Teff, distance from the Sun, absolute Mk were obtained…
Influence of gamma-aminobutyric acid on baclofen intestinal absorption.
1994
Since previous studies suggested that baclofen absorption in the rat middle intestine was inhibited by beta-alanine and therefore mediated, at least in part, by the beta-aminoacid carrier, we focused our new studies on the analysis of the possible inhibition of the drug by a gamma-aminoacid model compound, gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA). A rat jejunum in situ study was undertaken in order to evaluate the effect of GABA on baclofen absorption and to establish the inhibition model. Assays using isotonic perfusion solutions of 0.5 mM baclofen with starting GABA concentrations ranging from 0 to 100 mM are reported. The results show that the absorption rate pseudoconstants of the drug decrease a…
Digestion and absorption rates of [3H]-oleic acid and [14C]-triolein do not differ in rats fed heated (-) and (+) gossypol cottonseed and soybean flo…
1998
This study was conducted to compare in vivo the acute effects of heated (+) and (-) gossypol cottonseed flours with those of soybean flour on lipid digestion and absorption in growing rats. Rats were fed by gastric intubation mixed [ 3 H]-oleic acid and [ 14 C]-triolein with heated flours or without flour (control). Lipid digestion and absorption were determined for 6 h after meal intubation. Both radioactivities recovered in gastrointestinal tract were significantly higher in rats fed (+) gossypol cottonseed flour than in all other groups. The majority of both recovered radioactivities was found in stomach contents, then in stomach wall and finally in intestinal wall. The distribution of b…
Intestinal absorption pathway of gamma-aminobutyric acid in rat small intestine.
1994
Intestinal absorption of gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA), as a model compound for gamma-aminoacids, has not been extensively studied from the kinetic viewpoint. Since data from our laboratory suggested that some competition arises between intestinal absorption of beta-alanine and GABA and since our intent was to maintain the aqueous stagnant diffusion layer in order to approach absorption tests to in vivo physiological conditions, a rat jejunum in situ study was undertaken in order to gain an insight into the mechanism of GABA absorption. In the present paper, results from assays using isotonic perfusion solutions with starting GABA concentrations ranging from 1 to 50 mM are reported. They s…
