Cell-Type-Specific Adaptions in Striatal Medium-Sized Spiny Neurons and Their Roles in Behavioral Responses to Drugs of Abuse

Drug addiction is defined as a compulsive pattern of drug-seeking- and taking- behavior, with recurrent episodes of abstinence and relapse, and a loss of control despite negative consequences.Addictive drugs promote reinforcement by increasing dopamine in the mesocorticolimbic system, which alters excitatory glutamate transmission within the reward

Adaptively Detecting the Transient Feature of Faulty Wind Turbine Planetary Gearboxes by the Improved Kurtosis and Iterative Thresholding Algorithm

It is significant for diagnosing the early faults of wind turbine planetary gearboxes.However, the weak transient feature generated by the early aluminum lotion gear failure is often submerged in other vibration signals and noise, thus this paper discusses a new automatic sparse representation method for detecting weak transients.An improved Morlet

PRODUCTION OF OIL PALM (Elaeis guineensis Jack) FLOWER BUNCHES IN ULTISOL ON APPLICATION OF BIOFERTILIZERS AND IN ORGANIC FERTILIZERS

One of the efforts to increase the production of oil palm flower bunches in ultisols is applying biofertilizers and inorganic fertilizers.Biofertilizers can reduce the use and adverse effects of inorganic fertilizers.Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Fungi (AMF) is one of the biofertilizers that can help plants absorb nutrients and increase plant resistance t
