Mechanical surface waves accompany action potential propagation [PDF]
Nature Communications, 2014 Many diverse studies have shown that a mechanical displacement of the axonal membrane accompanies the electrical pulse defining the action potential (AP).

Frontiers in Pharmacology, 2021 Introduction: Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common cardiac arrhythmia. Consequently, novel therapies are being developed. Ultimately, the impact of compounds on the action potential (AP) needs to be tested in freshly isolated human atrial myocytes.

Nature Communications, 2015 Action potential timing is fundamental to information processing; however, its determinants are not fully understood. Here we report unexpected structural specializations in the Ranvier nodes and internodes of auditory brainstem axons involved in sound ...

Extending Feynman's Formalisms for Modelling Human Joint Action Coordination
, 2009 The recently developed Life-Space-Foam approach to goal-directed human action deals with individual actor dynamics. This paper applies the model to characterize the dynamics of co-action by two or more actors. This dynamics is modelled by: (i) a two-term

The DBI Action, Higher-derivative Supergravity, and Flattening Inflaton Potentials [PDF]
, 2016 In string theory compactifications it is common to find an effective Lagrangian for the scalar fields with a non-canonical kinetic term. We study the effective action of the scalar position moduli of Type II D$p$-branes.

Breathing is coupled with voluntary action and the cortical readiness potential
Nature Communications, 2020 Voluntary action is a fundamental element of self-consciousness. The readiness potential (RP), a slow drift of neural activity preceding self-initiated movement, has been suggested to reflect neural processes underlying the preparation of voluntary ...

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background While Wilms tumor (WT) typically has a favorable prognosis, relapsed cases—especially those with high‐risk histology—remain therapeutically challenging after intensive frontline therapy. The combination of vincristine and irinotecan has demonstrated activity in pediatric solid tumors, and pazopanib, a multi‐targeted tyrosine kinase ...

eLife, 2014 Synaptic inputs from different brain areas are often targeted to distinct regions of neuronal dendritic arbors. Inputs to proximal dendrites usually produce large somatic EPSPs that efficiently trigger action potential (AP) output, whereas inputs to ...

Computational design of custom therapeutic cells to correct failing human cardiomyocytes
Frontiers in Systems Biology, 2023 Background: Myocardial delivery of non-excitable cells—namely human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs) and c-kit+ cardiac interstitial cells (hCICs)—remains a promising approach for treating the failing heart. Recent empirical studies attempt to improve such
