Enriched Environment Promoted Cognitive Function via Bilateral Synaptic Remodeling After Cerebral Ischemia

open access: yesFrontiers in Neurology, 2019
Ischemic stroke is the second leading cause of death worldwide. Ischemia-induced cognitive dysfunction may result in a poor quality of life. Synaptic plasticity plays a key role in cognition promotion.

Photosynthesis under far‐red light—evolutionary adaptations and bioengineering of light‐harvesting complexes

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Phototrophs evolved light‐harvesting systems adapted for efficient photon capture in habitats enriched in far‐red radiation. A subset of eukaryotic pigment‐binding proteins can absorb far‐red photons via low‐energy chlorophyll states known as red forms.

Music Upper Limb Therapy – Integrated: an Enriched Collaborative Approach for Stroke Rehabilitation

open access: yesFrontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2016
Stroke is a leading cause of disability worldwide. It leads to a sudden and overwhelming disruption in one’s physical body, and alters the stroke survivors’ sense of self. Long-term recovery requires that bodily perception, social participation and sense

Bored at home?—A systematic review on the effect of environmental enrichment on the welfare of laboratory rats and mice

open access: yesFrontiers in Veterinary Science, 2022
Boredom is an emotional state that occurs when an individual has nothing to do, is not interested in the surrounding, and feels dreary and in a monotony.

Management factors affecting the use of pasture by table chickens in extensive production systems [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
Whether chickens will make proper use of pasture is a problem experienced by producers of free-range and organic chickens. The aims of this project are to identify husbandry techniques and aspects of system design that encourage good pasture use.

Evidence that natural selection maintains genetic variation for sleep in Drosophila melanogaster. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
BackgroundDrosophila melanogaster often shows correlations between latitude and phenotypic or genetic variation on different continents, which suggests local adaptation with respect to a heterogeneous environment.

Spatiotemporal and quantitative analyses of phosphoinositides – fluorescent probe—and mass spectrometry‐based approaches

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Fluorescent probes allow dynamic visualization of phosphoinositides in living cells (left), whereas mass spectrometry provides high‐sensitivity, isomer‐resolved quantitation (right). Their synergistic use captures complementary aspects of lipid signaling. This review illustrates how these approaches reveal the spatiotemporal regulation and quantitative

Effects and mechanisms of different exogenous organic matters on selenium and cadmium uptake by rice in natural selenium-cadmium-rich soil

open access: yesHeliyon
Many natural selenium (Se)-rich rice plants are being polluted by cadmium (Cd). In this study, for reducing Cd concentrations in rice grains while maintaining Se concentrations, the effects of different exogenous organic matters (OMs), such as humic acid
