Acute Optogenetic Silencing of Orexin/Hypocretin Neurons Induces Slow-Wave Sleep in Mice
Our results demonstrate that acute inhibition of orexin neurons results in time-of-day-dependent induction of SWS and in reduced firing rate of neurons in an efferent projection site thought to be…

Identification of a Soybean Chloroplast DNA Replication Origin-Binding Protein
Our results suggest that the 26 kDa soybean protein is a specific origin binding protein that may be involved in initiation of ctDNA replication.

CCR4-Associated Factor 1 Coordinates the Expression of Plasmodium Falciparum Egress and Invasion Proteins
We report that carbon catabolite repressor protein 4 (CCR4)-associated factor 1 (CAF1) is critical in regulating more than 1,000 genes during malaria parasites' intraerythrocytic stages.

Developmental Change in Regional Brain Structure Over 7 Months in Early Adolescence: Comparison of Approaches for Longitudinal Atlas-Based Parcellation
We compared two approaches to achieve segmentation to quantify regional brain structural development over a 7-month interval in normal adolescents.

Extension of Bacillus Endospore Gas Dynamic Heating Studies to Multiple Species and Test Conditions
We extend the study of the interactions of endospores with shock/blast waves to new species and environmental conditions.

Genetic Association of Recovery from Eating Disorders: the Role of GABA Receptor SNPs
Follow-up studies of eating disorders (EDs) suggest outcomes ranging from recovery to chronic illness or death, but predictors of outcome have not been consistently identified.

IL-10 and IL-10 Receptor Overexpression in Oral Giant Cell Lesions
The purpose of the present study was to investigate its expression together with its receptor (IL-10Rα) in CGCL and PGCL.

Nicotine Reduces l-DOPA-Induced Dyskinesias by Acting at β2* Nicotinic Receptors
These data demonstrate an essential role for β2* nAChRs in the antidyskinetic effect of nicotine and suggest that drugs targeting these subtypes may be useful for the management of l-DOPA-induced dyskinesias…

Erratum To: Identification of a Soybean Chloroplast DNA Replication Origin-Binding Protein(Plant Mol Biol,10.1007/S11103-011-9736-6)
Replication of chloroplast DNA (ctDNA) in several plants and in Chlamydomonas reinhardii has been shown to occur by a double displacement loop (D-loop) mechanism and potentially also by a rolling circle mechanism.

Personality Disorders in Women with Severe Premenstrual Syndrome
The comorbidity of a personality disorder and severe PMS places an additive burden on general life functioning and may have implications for psychiatric treatment or medication given to those with…
