DIFFERENCE IN TRANSIENT ISCHEMIA-INDUCED NEURONAL DAMAGE AND GLUCOSE TRANSPORTER-1 IMMUNOREACTIVITY IN THE HIPPOCAMPUS BETWEEN ADULT AND YOUNG GERBILS

Objective(s): The alteration of glucose transporters is closely related with the pathogenesis of brain edema.We compared neuronal damage/death in the hippocampus between adult and young gerbils following transient cerebral ischemia/reperfusion and changes of glucose transporter-1(GLUT-1)-immunoreactive microvessels in their ischemic hippocampal CA1

The home range utilization of primates reflects their behavioral and ecological strategies to adapt to their environment.However, little is known about the home range behavior of endemic gibbons (Nomascus hainanus) found in a secondary tropical forest of Hainan Island, China.Knowledge of their ranging patterns could contribute to scientific evaluat
