Neural Response to Biological Motion in Healthy Adults Varies as a Function of Autistic-Like Traits
Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2017 Perception of biological motion is an important social cognitive ability that has been mapped to specialized brain regions. Perceptual deficits and neural differences during biological motion perception have previously been associated with autism, a ...

Red blood cells could protect miRNAs from degradation or loss thanks to Argonaute 2 binding
FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.The present work investigates the presence and the stability of miRNAs into RBCs, both native and engineered. The observed stability is due to the Ago2 bound resulting in minimal RISC. Indeed, if the miRNA‐Ago2 complex is present, miRNAs are protected from release or degradation and they are biologically active. Thus, RBCs can act as miRNA carriers for

Points and Stripes: A Novel Technique for Masking Biological Motion Point-Light Stimuli
Frontiers in Psychology, 2018 Human articulated motion can be readily recognized robustly even from impoverished so-called point-light displays. Such sequence information is processed by separate visual processing channels recruiting different stages at low and intermediate levels of

Brownian Dynamics Simulations of Single-File Motion Through Nanochannels [PDF]
arXiv, 2006 Algorithm is constructed which models single-file motion of particles interacting with each other and with the surroundings. As an example, we present the results of Brownian Dynamics simulations of the motion of cations moving through a short very narrow channel containing a device called ``gate'', which may open and close the channel.

Biological Motion: A Perceptual Life Detector? [PDF]
Current Biology, 2006 Detecting the direction of motion of other animals is critical for a variety of adaptive behaviours, including filial attachment and hunting prey. Two new studies support the view that some vertebrates, including humans, have primitive brain systems for the visual detection of other legged vertebrates.

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.This study reports the upregulation of ELMO1 and GPR141 in human Fuchs' endothelial corneal dystrophy (FECD) corneal endothelium and ultraviolet A‐induced FECD mice model. A genetic association of an intergenic single nucleotide polymorphism rs918980 present between both genes is observed with FECD in the Indian population.

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.The C. elegans tetraspanin‐7 (tsp‐7) is a homologue of human CD63, which is a negative regulator of autophagy. The C. elegans strain, tm5761, has a dysfunctional (knockout) tsp‐7 gene. When compared to the wild‐type strain, the tm5761 strain shows increased: life‐ and health‐span; thermotolerance, and stress‐induced locomotion.

Visual event-related potentials to biological motion stimuli in autism spectrum disorders.
Social Cognitive and Affective Neuroscience, 2014 Atypical visual processing of biological motion contributes to social impairments in autism spectrum disorders (ASD). However, the exact temporal sequence of deficits of cortical biological motion processing in ASD has not been studied to date.

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.Heterologous expression of membrane transporters in cultured cells is essential for functional characterization, but is sometimes limited by low activity. Our study compares the HDAC inhibitors butyrate, VPA and SAHA to enhance transport activity. We propose to replace butyrate by SAHA: it is equally effective, devoid of repulsive odor, costs less, and
