High impact information on Homing Behavior

  • These data suggest that interaction of SCF with the c-kit receptor affects the homing behavior of hematopoietic progenitor cells in the adult animal [1].
  • Both alpha E+ (TGF-beta-treated) and alpha E- (control) cells of either CD4+ or CD8+ subset had a low capacity to enter the gut and showed the same homing behavior with respect to a variety of other organs [2].
  • Alarm calls from six species of monkeys were recorded across the home range of an eagle pair in Taï National Park, Côte d'Ivoire [3].
  • We found that free-living testosterone-treated males had larger home ranges than free-living controls in agreement with earlier experiments, but we found no corresponding difference in HF volume [4].
  • Among the tested variables, annual home range size was the variable that affected sigmaPCB5 (sum of PCB-99, -153, -156, -180, and -194) to the largest degree (r2 = 0.22) [5].
 

Chemical compound and disease context of Homing Behavior

  • Effects of corticosterone on activity and home-range size of free-ranging male lizards [6].
  • However, when B was given in combination with T, not only were the positive effects of T eliminated, but there was a reduction in activity (31%) and home-range size (72%) similar to that reported in lizards that received B implants alone [7].
  • T increased both activity (by 31%) and home-range size (by 150%), whereas S-implanted cohorts exhibited a reduction in both of these parameters (by 24 and 50%, respectively) [7].
  • Effects of steroid hormone interaction on activity and home-range size of male lizards [7].
  • Differential effects of prenatal protein malnutrition and prenatal cocaine on a test of homing behavior in rat pups [8].
 

Gene context of Homing Behavior

  • Normal homing behavior in infant rats despite extensive olfactory bulb granule cell losses [9].
  • We detected no differences in 1992 between healthy and rabid skunks in estimated mean (+/- SE) rate of travel (232 +/- 14 m/hr), distance traveled (2,047 +/- 141 m/night), or home range size (1.6 +/- 0.4 km2) during half-month periods from April through June [10].
