The cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) is an anion channel whose dysfunction causes cystic fibrosis (CF). The loss of CFTR function in pulmonary epithelial cells causes surface dehydration, mucus build‐up, inflammation, and ...

Stomatal Responses to Light, CO2, and Mesophyll Tissue in Vicia faba and Kalanchoë fedtschenkoi
The responses of stomatal aperture to light intensity and CO2 concentration were studied in both Vicia faba (C3) and Kalanchoë fedtschenkoi (Crassulacean acid metabolism; CAM), in material sampled from both light and dark periods.

Admittance of Atomic and Molecular Junctions and Their Signal Transmission
Atom-sized contacts of metals are usually characterized by their direct current (DC) conductance. However, when atom-sized contacts are used as device interconnects and transmit high frequency signals or fast pulses, the most critical parameter is not ...

COMPASS: A New COnductance Model Based on PFISR And SWARM Satellite Observations
Ionospheric conductance plays a crucial and active role in magnetosphere‐ionosphere‐thermosphere coupling processes. Despite its importance, direct global observations of conductance are unavailable.

We study the effects of dopant atoms on quantum transport and adsorption properties of environmentally harmful (CO2), toxic (CO) and common (O2 and N2) molecules of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) based on the first-principles electronic structure and quantum ...

Cortical neurons in vivo may operate in high-conductance states, in which the major part of the neuron's input conductance is due to synaptic activity, sometimes several-fold larger than the resting conductance.

Influence of Delayed Conductance on Neuronal Synchronization
In the brain, the excitation-inhibition balance prevents abnormal synchronous behavior. However, known synaptic conductance intensity can be insufficient to account for the undesired synchronization. Due to this fact, we consider time delay in excitatory

The relation between current and voltage, I-V relation, is central to functional analysis of membrane ion channels. A commonly used method, since the introduction of the voltage-clamp technique, to establish the I-V relation depends on the interpolation ...
