1. Ontogênese do ritmo de consumo de oxigênio em operárias de Melipona quadrifasciata (Hymenoptera; Meliponini): a influência da luz / Ontogenesis of respiratory rhythms in Melipona quadrifasciata workers: the influence of light
As operárias de Melipona quadrifasciata exercem diferentes funções na colônia, segundo sua faixa etária. No interior da colônia, os indivíduos mais jovens, nutrizes, ficam localizados na região mais interna e aproximam-se progressivamente das regiões periféricas à medida que envelhecem. Os indivíduos mais velhos, forrageiras, saem da colônia dia

2. Estudo da ontogênese dos ritmos biológicos em neonatos humanos e ratos. / Study of the ontogenesis of biological rhythms in newborns humans and rats.
Fatores ambientais podem modificar o desenvolvimento dos ritmos biológicos em neonatos, como já demonstrado em ratos. Neste contexto insere-se o estudo de recém-nascidos pré-termo mantidos em unidades de cuidado neonatal. Descrevemos neste trabalho a evolução da ritmicidade no ciclo vigília/sono, atividade/repouso, temperatura do punho e alimentação

3. Caracterização do ritmo de atividade motora durante a puberdade em sagüis (Callithrix jacchus) sob condições semi-naturais
Most of ontogenetic studies on circadian timing system have been developed on infants, adults and elderly. The puberty has not been a stage of life few studied, except for researches in human adolescents, that presents phase delay in sleep-wake cycle. However, few studies have focused on the basis of this circadian change due to methodological diffic

4. COMPORTAMENTO DE PEQUENOS FELINOS NEOTROPICAIS EM CATIVEIRO
The lack of information concerning the small neotropical felids can be related to their predominant nocturnal activity, use of dense vegetation and hunting that threats natural populations. Therefore, research with captive animals may supply essential information for the development of effective conservation plans and strategies. The aim of this work was to

5. Genes that control a temperature-compensated ultradian clock in Caenorhabditis elegans.
Substantial progress has been made in understanding the genetic basis of temperature-compensated circadian clocks. Ultradian rhythms, with a period shorter than 24 h, are at least as widespread as circadian rhythms. We have initiated genetic analysis of defecation behavior, which is controlled by an ultradian clock in Caenorhabditis elegans. The defecation m

6. Ultradian oscillations in somatostatin and growth hormone-releasing hormone mRNAs in the brains of adult male rats.
In the adult male rat, growth hormone (GH) secretion is characterized by an ultradian rhythm generated by the rhythmic interplay of the stimulatory effects of GH-releasing hormone (GHRH) and the inhibitory effects of somatostatin (Ss). Although considerable evidence indicates that GHRH and Ss are secreted in reciprocal 3- to 4-hr rhythms, the mechanism under

7. Relationship between the three-hour-period sleep-wakefulness cycle and growth hormone secretion in the immature rat.
The temporal pattern of growth hormone (GH) secretion throughout a day and its correlation with the sleep-wakefulness cycle in the 29-31-day-old female rat were studied by serial blood sampling through an intracardiac cannula at 10-min intervals. Electroencephalograms (e.e.g.s) recorded continuously during blood sampling periods were scored into wakefulness

8. FLR-4, a Novel Serine/Threonine Protein Kinase, Regulates Defecation Rhythm in Caenorhabditis elegans
The defecation behavior of the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans is controlled by a 45-s ultradian rhythm. An essential component of the clock that regulates the rhythm is the inositol trisphosphate receptor in the intestine, but other components remain to be discovered. Here, we show that the flr-4 gene, whose mutants exhibit very short defecation cycle perio

9. An ion channel of the degenerin/epithelial sodium channel superfamily controls the defecation rhythm in Caenorhabditis elegans
Ultradian rhythms are widespread phenomena found in various biological organisms. A typical example is the defecation behavior of the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans, which repeats at about 45-sec intervals. To elucidate the mechanism, we studied flr-1 mutants, which show very short defecation cycle periods. The mutations also affect some food-related functi

10. Somatostatin is required for masculinization of growth hormone–regulated hepatic gene expression but not of somatic growth
Pulsatile growth hormone (GH) secretion differs between males and females and regulates the sex-specific expression of cytochrome P450s in liver. Sex steroids influence the secretory dynamics of GH, but the neuroendocrine mechanisms have not been conclusively established. Because periventricular hypothalamic somatostatin (SST) expression is greater in males

11. Ultradian rhythm of growth hormone secretion and sleep in the adult male rat.
The correlation between growth hormone (GH) secretion and the sleep-wakefulness cycle in the adult male rat was studied by serial blood sampling at 10 min intervals. Electroencephalograms (e.e.g.s) recorded continuously during the blood sampling were scored into wakefulness and sleep, and the amount of sleep for every 10 min was plotted against the GH value
