Association between brain lateralization and mixing ability of chewing side

Journal of Dental Sciences, 2017
Background/purpose: Previous studies have suggested that functional dominance in one part of the body can be correlated with functional dominance in another part.

Development of lateralization of the magnetic compass in a migratory bird [PDF]

, 2012
The magnetic compass of a migratory bird, the European robin (Erithacus rubecula), was shown to be lateralized in favour of the right eye/left brain hemisphere.

Protein pyrophosphorylation by inositol pyrophosphates — detection, function, and regulation

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Protein pyrophosphorylation is an unusual signaling mechanism that was discovered two decades ago. It can be driven by inositol pyrophosphate messengers and influences various cellular processes. Herein, we summarize the research progress and challenges of this field, covering pathways found to be regulated by this posttranslational modification as ...

Right-Lateralized Enhancement of the Auditory Cortical Network During Imagined Music Performance

Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2022
Although the primary role of the auditory cortical areas is to process actual sounds, these areas are also activated by tasks that process imagined music, suggesting that the auditory cortical areas are involved in the processes underlying musical ...

Brain asymmetry and visual word recognition: do we have a split fovea? [PDF]

, 2012
In this chapter we discuss how the anatomical divide between the left and the right brain half has implications for visual word recognition. In particular, it introduces the need for massive interhemispheric communication. Unlike what was believed in the

Regional differences in the coupling between resting cerebral blood flow and metabolism may indicate action preparedness as a default state. [PDF]

, 2008
Although most functional neuroimaging studies examine task effects, interest intensifies in the "default" resting brain. Resting conditions show consistent regional activity, yet oxygen extraction fraction constancy across regions.

The role of histone modifications in transcription regulation upon DNA damage

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This review discusses the critical role of histone modifications in regulating gene expression during the DNA damage response (DDR). By modulating chromatin structure and recruiting repair factors, these post‐translational modifications fine‐tune transcriptional programmes to maintain genomic stability.

Differences between left- and right-handers in approach/avoidance motivation: influence of consistency of handedness measures [PDF]

, 2014
Hand preference is often viewed as a troublesome variable in psychological research, with left-handers routinely excluded from studies. Contrary to this, a body of evidence has shown hand preference to be a useful variable when examining human behavior ...

Function‐driven design of a surrogate interleukin‐2 receptor ligand

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Interleukin (IL)‐2 signaling can be achieved and precisely fine‐tuned through the affinity, distance, and orientation of the heterodimeric receptors with their ligands. We designed a biased IL‐2 surrogate ligand that selectively promotes effector T and natural killer cell activation and differentiation. Interleukin (IL) receptors play a pivotal role in
