Pituitary cell type-specific electrical activity, calcium signaling and secretion
Biological Research, 2006 All secretory anterior pituitary cells exhibit spontaneous and extracellular calcium-dependent electrical activity, but differ with respect to the patterns of firing and associated calcium signaling and hormone secretion.

SL(2,C) group action on Cohomological field theories [PDF]
, 2014 We introduce the $\mathrm{SL}(2,\mathbb{C})$ group action on a partition function of a Cohomological field theory via the certain Givental's action. Restricted to the small phase space we describe the action via the explicit formulae on a CohFT genus $g$ potential.

miRNA‐29 regulates epidermal and mesenchymal functions in skin repair
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.miRNA‐29 inhibits cell‐to‐cell and cell‐to‐matrix adhesion by silencing mRNA targets. Adhesion is controlled by complex interactions between many types of molecules coded by mRNAs. This is crucial for keeping together the layers of the skin and for regenerating the skin after wounding.

A Note on Charged Black Holes in AdS space and the Dual Gauge Theories
, 2010 We study the thermodynamics and the phase structures of Reissner-Nordstrom and Born-Infeld black holes in AdS space by constructing ``off-shell'' free energies using thermodynamic quantities derived directly from the action.

A novel improved action for SU(3) lattice gauge theory [PDF]
arXiv, 2004 SU(3) lattice gauge theory is studied by means of an improved action where a $2 \times 2$ Wilson loop is supplemented to the standard plaquette term. By contrast to earlier studies using a tree level improvement, the prefactor of the $2 \times 2$ Wilson term is determined by minimizing the breaking of rotational symmetry detected from the static quark ...

Why do taste cells generate action potentials?
Journal of Biology, 2009 Taste cells regularly generate action potentials, but their functional significance in taste signaling is unclear. A paper in BMC Neuroscience reveals the identity of the voltage-gated Na+ channels underlying action potentials, providing the foundation ...

Action and therapeutic potential of oxyntomodulin
Molecular Metabolism, 2014 Oxyntomodulin (OXM) is a peptide hormone released from the gut in post-prandial state that activates both the glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor (GLP1R) and the glucagon receptor (GCGR) resulting in superior body weight lowering to selective GLP1R agonists. OXM reduces food intake and increases energy expenditure in humans.

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Spot‐14 and Spot‐14R play distinct roles in regulating metabolism in brown and beige adipocytes. While both influence lipid and glucose pathways, Spot‐14 uniquely controls thermogenic gene expression. This dual regulation balances energy storage and heat production, highlighting potential therapeutic targets for obesity and metabolic disorders. Spot 14
