Endogenous circadian rhythms govern most aspects of physiology and behaviour in
mammals, including body temperature, autonomic and endocrine function, and sleep-wake …

This review provides an overview of the interaction between the mammalian cholinergic
system and circadian system, and its possible role in time memory. Several studies made …

A unique interdisciplinary overview of the way mammals reproduce, this volume synthesizes
research done by laboratory physiologists, behaviorists, population ecologists, and animal …

Sleep impacts diverse physiological and neural processes and is itself affected by the
menstrual cycle; however, few studies have examined the effects of the estrous cycle on …

The book examines the functions of the neurotransmitters acetylcholine and biogenic
amines dopamine, noradrenaline, serotonin, and histamine in plant organisms. Also …

A number of different experimental findings indicate that endogenous circadian neural
rhythms are generated within the SCN region of mammals. Rhythmic neural signals from the …

In mammals, the suprachiasmatic nucleus is responsible for the generation of most circadian
rhythms and their entrainment to environmental cues. Cholinergic agents can alter circadian …

Numerous incidents of poisoning of fish have been observed after applying
organophosphate or carbamate insecticides. The determination that these insecticides were …

The suprachiasmatic nucleus has been identified tentatively as a circadian pacemaker. To
examine the functional role of peptides found within suprachiasmatic neurons, avian …

In mammals, the suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN) is responsible for the generation of most
circadian rhythms and for their entrainment to environmental cues. Carbachol, an agonist of …
