1. Seasonal and Circadian Study of a Thymol/γ-Terpinene/p-Cymene Type Oil of Ocimum gratissimum L. and Its Antioxidant and Antifungal Effects
Ocimum gratissimum oil is used for various medicinal, food and cosmetic applications due to its high chemical variability. Local businesses have considered the economic exploitation of this plant. A specimen sampled at São Luís, MA, Brazil, with thymol and derivatives oil, was subjected to seasonal and circadian study, and to antifungal and antioxidant ass

2. Biology, distribution and geographic variation of loliginid squids (Mollusca: Cephalopoda) off southwestern Atlantic
ABSTRACT The biology and ecology of southwestern Atlantic loliginid squids have been intensively researched in the last few decades, mostly off the Brazilian southern coast. However, information gathered by scientific research cruisers, either past or recent, is limited. Three species of loliginid squids - the warm-tempered Doryteuthis sanpaulensis (Brakonie

3. Temperature and circadian effects on metabolic rate of South American echimyid rodents, Trinomys setosus and Clyomys bishopi (Rodentia: Echimyidae)
ABSTRACT Basal metabolic rate (BMR) represents the lowest level of metabolic activity capable to sustain homeostasis in an endotherm and is an important tool to compare metabolic rates of different species. Echimyidae is the most specious family within caviomorph rodents, however, little is known about the biology of its species, such as Trinomys setosus (De

4. Seasonal and circadian variation of the sexual behavior of Morada Nova rams in tropical environment
The objective of this study was to evaluate the seasonal and daily variation in sexual behavior of Morada Nova breeders raised in the Brazilian semi-arid region. The data were collected from four rams and 114 ewes of the Morada Nova breed - 55 females in the dry season and another 59 in the rainy season. Observations were performed in the dry and rainy seaso

5. Chemical composition, circadian rhythm and antibacterial activity of essential oils of piper divaricatum: a new source of safrole
The essential oils from leaves, stems and fruits of Piper divaricatum were analyzed by GC-MS. The tissues showed high safrole content: leaves (98%), fruits (87%) and stems (83%), with yields of 2.0, 4.8 and 1.7%, respectively. This is a new alternative source of safrole, a compound widely used as a flavoring agent and insecticide. The leaf's oil showed antib

6. Variação circadiana da expressão da sintase neuronal de óxido nítrico (nNOS) no hipocampo e o condicionamento contextual aversivo em pombos (Columba livia) / Circadian variation in expression of neuronal nitric oxide synthase (nNOS) in the hippocampus and contextual aversive conditioning in pigeons (Columba livia)
A ritmicidade circadiana, expressa na alteração do comportamento e em aspectos morfofisiológicos e moleculares ao longo das 24 horas do dia, é uma das funções básicas dos organismos vivos. Os processos comportamentais e os mecanismos moleculares no hipocampo, que estão envolvidos na aprendizagem e memória, demonstram oscilação circadiana. Vários

7. Melatonina, isoenzimas de glutationa S-transferases e estresse oxidante em pacu Piaractus mesopotamicus (Holmberg, 1887) / Melatonin, Glutathione S-transferases isoenzymes, and oxidative stress in pacu, Piaractus mesopotamicus (Holmberg, 1887).
Oxygen is vital for vertebrates. However, changes in the levels of dissolved oxygen in water might cause oxidative stress in fishes because the shortage of oxygen followed by reoxygenation originates reactive oxygen species (ROS) inside cells. Higher intracellular levels of ROS favor alterations of proteins, phospholipids and nucleic acid molecules, which re

8. Interactions of polymorphisms in different clock genes associated with circadian phenotypes in humans
Several studies have shown that mutations and polymorphisms in clock genes are associated with abnormal circadian parameters in humans and also with more subtle non-pathological phenotypes like chronotypes. However, there have been conflicting results, and none of these studies analyzed the combined effects of more than one clock gene. Up to date, associatio

9. Diurnal variation of vascular diameter and reactivity in healthy young men
The higher incidence of cardiovascular events in the morning is accompanied by an increased vascular tone. However, there are few published studies designed to evaluate the diurnal variation of vascular and endothelial parameters in healthy subjects. In the present investigation, we evaluated the diurnal variation in brachial artery diameter (BAD), flow-medi

10. Organização temporal em processos de condicionamento classico aversivo e na expressão da proteina Zenk no hipocampo de pombos (C. livia) / Temporal organization of classical aversive conditioning processes and expression of Zenk protein in the hippocampus of pigeons (C. livia)
Part of the knowledge about the mechanisms and neural basis of learning, memory and amnesia is based on the investigation of neural correlates of the behavior of non human animals in aversive situations. Moreover, many studies suggest that these behavioral processes are affected by the circadian timing system. The procedures of classical aversive conditionin

11. Variation of glycogen concentration in parotid and submandibular gland of rats during the day / Alteração da concentração de glicogênio durante o dia em glândulas submandibulares e parótidas de ratos
As glândulas salivares são glândulas exócrinas que vertem seus produtos para cavidade oral. As principais glândulas são as parótidas, sublinguais e submandibulares sendo elas as responsáveis pela contribuição do maior volume de saliva durante o processo de secreção que, assim como todas as atividades que nosso corpo exerce, também dependem de en

12. 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
