Brain Specific RagA Overexpression Triggers Depressive‐Like Behaviors in Mice via Activating ADORA2A Signaling Pathway [PDF]
The overexpression of brain‐specific RagA leads to depressive‐like behaviors, memory impairment, and hippocampal neuron loss in mice. This is accompanied by an upregulation of the adenosine A2a receptor (ADORA2A) and coordinated changes in the levels of depression‐related metabolites, proteins, and lncRNA.

Properties of diffuse and volume discharges that are important for their applications
Abstract Diffuse and volume discharges are currently used widely in various fields. This work compares the properties of diffuse and volume discharges, as well as considers the conditions for their formation at high pressures. The main attention is paid to a diffuse discharge (DD). It has been shown that the ignition of a diffuse discharges is preceded

Bite force in parrots has been explored using data from muscle masses. The values were validated by comparison with data for bite force collected from live parrots. The parrot's reputation for a strong bite force is well founded. Abstract Jaw morphology and function determine the range of dietary items that an organism can consume.

Guidelines for preparation and flow cytometry analysis of human nonlymphoid tissue DC
We here provide detailed protocols for isolating single cell suspension from human nonlymphoid tissues, such as gingiva, lung, intestine, skin, and different tumor tissues as well as tumor‐draining lymph nodes. Further, we provide gating strategies for flow cytometric analysis of human DC subpopulations in diverse nonlymphoid tissues.

Tungsten's Role in Enhancing Sintering Resistance of Fe‐W Hierarchical Foams during Redox Cycling
Increasing W concentration to 18–25 at.% in lamellar Fe‐W foams introduces a sufficient volume fraction of W‐rich phases (λ‐Fe2W and FeWO4 in the reduced and oxidized states respectively) to inhibit the sintering of lamellae with hierarchical porosity during high‐temperature redox cycling.

Liquid Crystalline Hydroxyapatite Nanorods Orchestrate Hierarchical Bone‐Like Mineralization
Unidirectional liquid crystalline hydroxyapatite nanorods guide the growth and osteogenesis of stem cells and the formation of ordered extracellular matrix and calcium deposits at multi‐scales. The PI3k‐Akt signaling pathway mediated by two key genes COL1A1 and COL4A6 is activated in this process.

Abstract Background and Purpose Multiple system atrophy (MSA) is a progressive, adult‐onset neurodegenerative disorder clinically characterized by combinations of autonomic failure, parkinsonism, cerebellar ataxia and pyramidal signs. Although a few genetic factors have been reported to contribute to the disease, its mutational profiles have not been ...
