A dependence of the inward current across the cell membrane giant neurones at garden snail was investigated under voltage champ. It has been concluded that there are two components of the inward current: a calcium-dependent and I0. The latter current probably was carried by sodium ions. The inward Ca current (ICa) is then given as a function [Ca]2+ by: formula (see text) : KCa is a dissociation constant of the sites in outer part channel independent of membrane voltage. The experimental data are interpreted by two barrier membrane model bases of absolute reaction rate Eyring's theory.

Comparative morphology and mitogenomics of freshwater mussels Koreosolenaia, Parvasolenaia, and Sinosolenaia (Bivalvia: Unionidae: Gonideinae).

Background: Amidst the escalating loss of global biodiversity, freshwater mussels (family Unionidae) have become one of the most imperiled animal groups. Acquiring more biological and phylogenetic information on understudied taxa constitutes a pivotal aspect of conservation biology. Consequently, a comprehensive examination was conducted on Koreosolenaia, Parvasolenaia, and Sinosolenaia from China encompassing morphology, anatomy, distribution, and molecular systematics to provide theoretical support for future species endangerment assessments and biodiversity conservation.

Microplastic particles are widespread pollutants in the sea and filter-feeding sponges have recently been suggested as useful monitoring organisms. However, the fate of microplastic particles in sponges is poorly understood, yet crucial for interpreting monitoring data. The present study aims to help develop sponges as more useful monitoring organisms for microplastic in the sea.

Background: The severity of mental health issues among university students in rural areas can affect the outcomes of their studies. The purpose of this study was to identify factors associated with self-esteem, resilience, mental health, and psychological self-care among university students.
Methods: We conducted a cross-sectional survey of 729 undergraduate students by a self-administered questionnaire.

There is currently a limited understanding of the morphological and functional organization of the olfactory system in cartilaginous fishes, particularly when compared to bony fishes and terrestrial vertebrates. In this fish group, there is a clear paucity of information on the characterization, density, and distribution of olfactory receptor neurons (ORNs) within the sensory olfactory epithelium lining the paired olfactory rosettes, and their functional implications with respect to the hydrodynamics of incurrent water flow into the nares. This imaging study examines the brownbanded bamboo shark (Elasmobranchii) and combines immunohistochemical labeling using antisera raised against five G-protein α-subunits (Gα, Gα , Gα , Gα , Gα ) with light and electron microscopy, to characterize the morphological ORN types present.
