UNDERSTANDING THE FUNCTIONAL PLASTICITY IN NEURAL NETWORKS OF THE BASAL GANGLIA IN COPYRIGHT USE DISORDER: A ROLE FOR ALLOSTERIC RECEPTOR-RECEPTOR INTERACTIONS IN A2A-D2 HETERORECEPTOR COMPLEXES

Understanding the Functional Plasticity in Neural Networks of the Basal Ganglia in copyright Use Disorder: A Role for Allosteric Receptor-Receptor Interactions in A2A-D2 Heteroreceptor Complexes

Our hypothesis is that allosteric receptor-receptor interactions in homo- and heteroreceptor complexes may form the molecular basis of learning and memory.This principle is illustrated by showing how copyright abuse can alter the adenosine A2AR-dopamine D2R heterocomplexes and their receptor-receptor interactions and hereby induce neural plasticity

Competition between two biocontrol agents attacking the thrips, Gynaikothips ficorum (Marchal) (Thysanoptera: Phlaeothripidae), infesting the Cuban laurel, Ficus nitida Thunb., in Egypt

Abstract The insect fauna is present in the curled Cuban laurel leaf (Ficus nitida Thunb.) infested with the Cuban laurel thrips, Gynaikothrips ficorum Marchal (Thysanoptera: Phlaeothripidae), in Giza, Egypt, which included farmhouse magnolia wreath pests, predators, and parasitoids.The present study dealt with the presence of two natural enemies o
