Cellular and Molecular Responses to Depressed Metabolism and Low Temperature. Physiol …

Metabolic rate depression is an important survival strategy for many animal species and a
common element of hibernation, torpor, aestivation, anaerobiosis, diapause, and …

Extended bouts of fasting are ingrained in the ecology of many organisms, characterizing
aspects of reproduction, development, hibernation, estivation, migration, and infrequent …

Mammalian hibernators downregulate processes of energy production and consumption
while maintaining cellular homeostasis. Energetic costs of transcription must be balanced …

Science 4. The Basics of Hibernation.... 5. Regulation of Enzymes and Functional Proteins …

Brains of hibernating mammals are protected against a variety of insults that are detrimental
to humans and other nonhibernating species. Such protection is associated with a number …

We performed a broadscale screening of differential gene expression using both high-
throughput bead-array technology and real-time PCR assay in brown adipose tissue, liver …

Mammalian hibernation is an amazing strategy for winter survival. Animals sink into a deep
torpor where metabolic rate is< 5% of normal, body temperature falls to 0–5¡ ãC, and …

Hibernation and daily torpor involve substantial decreases in body temperature and
metabolic rate, allowing birds and mammals to cope with cold environments and/or limited …

Hibernators are unique among mammals in their ability to attain, withstand, and reverse low
body temperatures. Hibernators repeatedly cycle between body temperatures near zero …
