Phase Engineering of Nanomaterials (PEN): Evolution, Current Challenges, and Future Opportunities

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
This review summarizes the synthesis, phase transition, advanced characterization spanning ex situ to in situ and operando techniques, and diverse applications of phase engineering of nanomaterials (PEN). It further outlines key challenges and future opportunities, such as phase stability, architecture control, and artificial intelligence (AI)‐driven ...

OFF bipolar cells in macaque retina: Type-specific connectivity in the outer and inner synaptic layers

Frontiers in Neuroanatomy, 2015
OFF bipolar cells in the macaque retina were recently classified into five types: flat midget bipolar (FMB) and diffuse bipolar (DB) 1, 2, 3a, and 3b. We examined all parallel pathways from cone photoreceptors via OFF bipolar cells to parasol and midget ...

Synaptic mechanisms of bipolar cell terminals

Vision Research, 1999
Giant synaptic terminals of goldfish bipolar neurons allow direct studies of presynaptic mechanisms underlying neurotransmitter release and its modulation. Calcium influx via L-type calcium channels of the terminal triggers synaptic vesicle exocytosis, which can be monitored in isolated terminals by means of the associated changes in membrane ...

Bioelectrical Interfaces Beyond Excitable Cells: Cancer, Aging, and Gene Expression Modulation

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The investigation of biological conductivity has evolved from its classical foundation based on ionic fluxes underpinning cardiac and neuronal excitability to a multifaceted regulator of cellular physiology. Traditional approaches for probing electrical events in living matter focused largely on action potentials recording.

ON bipolar cells in macaque retina: type-specific synaptic connectivity with special reference to OFF counterparts

Frontiers in Neuroanatomy, 2016
To date, 12 macaque bipolar cell types have been described. This list includes all morphology types first outlined by Polyak (1941) using the Golgi method in the primate retina and subsequently identified by other researchers using electron microscopy ...

Topological Point Defects in SmC* Liquid Crystals Under Mechanical Disturbance

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
Tangetial air jet shear inducess island formation and nucleates topological point defects in uniform SmC films. Island bounded by edge dislocation loops shrink and transform into isolated point defects under continued shear. Mechanical perturbatio provides a controllable route for defect engineering in smectric liquid crystal thin films.

Lrit1, a Retinal Transmembrane Protein, Regulates Selective Synapse Formation in Cone Photoreceptor Cells and Visual Acuity

Cell Reports, 2018
Summary: In the vertebrate retina, cone photoreceptors play crucial roles in photopic vision by transmitting light-evoked signals to ON- and/or OFF-bipolar cells.

Licht- und elektronenmikroskopische Analyse von Bipolarzelltypen in der Mausretina [PDF]

, 2006
In the mammalian retina, the light response of the photoreceptors (rods and cones) is processed by an elaborate neuronal network. For many years it has been thought that in the mammalian retina rod and cone signals are relayed by different types of ...

Parametric tests of a 40-Ah bipolar nickel-hydrogen battery [PDF]

, 1986
A series of tests were performed to characterize battery performance relating to certain operating parameters which include charge current, discharge current, temperature, and pressure. The parameters were varied to confirm battery design concepts and to
