Spatiotemporal Control of GPR37 Signaling and Its Behavioral Effects by Optogenetics

open access: yesFrontiers in Molecular Neuroscience, 2018
Despite the progress in deorphanization of G Protein-Coupled Receptors (GPCRs), ≈100 GPCRs are still classified as orphan receptors without identified endogenous ligands and with unknown physiological functions.

Computational modeling of distinct neocortical oscillations driven by cell-type selective optogenetic drive: Separable resonant circuits controlled by low-threshold spiking and fast-spiking interneurons

open access: yesFrontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2010
Selective optogenetic drive of fast spiking interneurons (FS) leads to enhanced local field potential (LFP) power across the traditional gamma frequency band (20-80Hz; Cardin et al., 2009).

Novel Bioconjugate Materials: Synthesis, Characterization and Medical Applications

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
This review discusses the bioconjugation of novel materials grouped under “biological”, “hybrid” and “synthetic” categories. Medical applications ranging from cancer therapy and diagnostics to optogenetics and tissue engineering are explored, and conjugation trends are highlighted as a general guide. The review concludes with a comparison of techniques
