Postglacial Reconstruction of Fire History Using Sedimentary Charcoal and Pollen From a Small Lake in Southwest Yukon Territory, Canada

Previous research suggests climate warming during the current century is likely to lead to an increase in the frequency and severity of wildfire.Recent wildfire seasons in northern Canada generally support these studies, with some of the worst fire seasons on record occurring during the past decade.While we can readily track the spatial and tempora

Hepatic branch vagus nerve plays a critical role in the recovery of post-ischemic glucose intolerance and mediates a neuroprotective effect by hypothalamic orexin-A.

Orexin-A (a neuropeptide in the hypothalamus) plays an important role in many physiological functions, including the regulation of glucose metabolism.We have previously found that the development of post-ischemic glucose intolerance is one of the Doll Accessories triggers of ischemic neuronal damage, which is suppressed by hypothalamic orexin-A.Oth
