Molecular and Physiological Adaptations to Weight Perturbation in Mice
… molecular basis of defense of body weight. These physiological responses, which include increased metabolic efficiency at lower body weight, may be engaged in individuals at different levels of body fat depending on their genetic makeup, as well as on gestational and post-natal environmental …

Physiological adaptations of microorganisms to high oxygen in two oligotrophic lakes
… HDO waters. Isolates were examined for physiological characteristics which might enhance their survival in the HDO environment. While HDO incubation produced <36% of ADO incubated CFU, VHO was more selective producing <1%. Bacterial isolates were motile Gram negative rods, catalase and …

Physiological adaptations in mdx mice treated with microdystrophin gene therapy and endurance exercise
… were differentially improved, revealing unique physiological adaptations to each microdystrophin construct. Together, the data demonstrated that response to exercise after gene therapy treatment was variable and dependent on age, microdystrophin construct, and muscle type.

Physiological Adaptations to the Metabolic Syndrome Following Exercise Training and Omega-3 Fatty Acid Supplementation
… remained unexplained in terms of central adaptations to the metabolic syndrome. It was concluded that potential beneficial effects of exercise on insulin sensitivity were short term, reflecting a cumulative effect. Improved efficiency in insulin kinetics may be secondary to increased blood …

THE IMPACT OF CONCURRENT-TRAINING ON THE PHYSIOLOGICAL ADAPTATIONS TO SPORT SPECIFIC EXERCISE IN ELITE FOOTBALLERS
… are trained within the same training cycle, adaptations in strength and power related variables can become blunted - a situation most commonly referred to as the ‘interference phenomenon’ (Hickson, 1980). Experimental data suggest the organisation of each training stimulus can modulate the …

The comparison of physiological adaptations following a 4-week cycle and shuttle run-based SIT interventions
… sprint interval training (SIT) protocols on physiological and performance measures. Twenty-six healthy, recreationally active adults (19 males, 7 females; age 25± 5y) were assigned to either a control (n=9), run group (n=8), or cycle group (n=9). All groups completed pre- and …

A Sensor for Three-Dimensional Limb-to-Prosthesis Interface Motion and Physiological Adaptations from Lower Extremity Prosthesis Use
… everyday circumstances. Additionally, vascular adaptations were found in the residual limb using Optical Coherence Tomography Angiography imaging, and it is plausible that the adaptions can be correlated to the localized, repetitive, limb-socket interface motions found within the socket.

The gut microbiome of the western lowland gorilla (Gorilla gorilla gorilla): implications for overall ecology
… display a breadth of behavioral, anatomical and physiological adaptations, which allow them to exploit a myriad of habitats. Detailed representation of these adaptive tools has constituted the basis of our knowledge of primate ecology and evolution. Nonetheless, gut bacteria, which play central …

Physiological responses of wild antelope to exercise training as a prospective treatment to prevent capture myopathy
… myopathy is a lethal condition associated with physiological stress in wildlife and is responsible for most deaths during game capture. Exercise training to improve fitness has been proposed as a preventative management strategy for capture myopathy but lacks scientific evidence. The aim of this …

The Comparative Effects of a Thermal Gradient on the Age and Growth Characteristics of Largemouth Bass (Micropterus Nigricans), and Atlantic Cod (Gadus Morhua)
… due to variations in ecological niches and physiological adaptations. I assessed the effects of temperature on Largemouth Bass (Micropterus nigricans) and Atlantic Cod (Gadus morhua) using data from peer-reviewed journals, state records, and fisheries agencies. For Largemouth Bass, I …

A Molecular and Phylogenetic Analysis of Cryobiosis in Nematodes of the Genus Panagrolaimus
… through the development of biochemical and physiological adaptations. These biochemical adaptations may include the synthesis of proteins such as antifreeze proteins or cryoprotectants such as trehalose, the elimination of ice nucleators, and the expression of stress associated proteins …

Influence of Alternative Feeding Modes on Gene Expression and Microbiome Composition in Poison Frog Tadpoles
… tadpoles. However, few studies have investigated physiological adaptations and responses of tadpoles associated with different behaviors. The genus Ranitomeya provides a unique opportunity for comparative study as it includes two species that exhibit vastly different modes of tadpole feeding …

Hypoxic Stress Induced Gene Modulation in Medaka (Oryzias latipes) and Xiphophorus maculatus
… may provide the tools to better understand the physiological adaptations made by fish to survive environmental stress. In addition, shifts in gene regulation upon exposure to hypoxia may lead to the establishment of transcriptional profiles or identification of genetic biomarkers associated with …

The impact of heat acclimation on physiological response to exercise and performance at hot and temperate conditions
Heat acclimation training programmes induces physiological adaptations to improve thermoregulatory, cardiovascular, sudomotor and metabolic responses during exercise in hot conditions. Such adaptations include increased sweat rate, improved maximal oxygen uptake, lowered resting and exercising core …

Morphological and Physiological Leaf Adaptations to Seasonal and Diurnal Abiotic Stress for Two Barrier Island Sand Dune Species
… Information regarding the leaf morphological and physiological adaptations of native dune vegetation to seasonal and diurnal abiotic stress will be essential in artificial dune construction to maintain optimal growth conditions for native species. The aim of this dissertation research was to …

The Effects of Carbohydrate Mouth Rinse on Fasted High-Intensity Interval Training in Recreationally Trained Individuals
… of greater metabolic stress, and thus physiological adaptations, for no increased perceptual cost. The greater metabolic stress may be the result of more work being completed in the first interval, however the sample size was insufficient to fully determine this. Since there appear to …
