SCATTER HOARDING OF SEEDS CONFERS SURVIVAL ADVANTAGES AND DISADVANTAGES TO LARGE-SEEDED TROPICAL PLANTS AT DIFFERENT LIFE STAGES.

Scatter hoarding of seeds confers survival advantages and disadvantages to large-seeded tropical plants at different life stages.

Scatter hoarding of seeds by animals contributes significantly to forest-level processes, including plant recruitment and forest community composition.However, the potential Lucidalabbra positive and negative effects of caching on seed survival, germination success, and seedling survival have rarely been assessed through experimental studies.Here,

IGF-1 release in the medial prefrontal cortex mediates the rapid and sustained antidepressant-like actions of ketamine

Abstract Ketamine, an N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor antagonist, exerts rapid and sustained antidepressant actions.Preclinical studies demonstrated that the release of brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) and vascular endothelial growth factor in the medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC) is essential for the antidepressant-like effects of ketamine.How
