Alley-gating revisited: the sustainability of resident's satisfaction [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Alleys (snickets, ginnels, backways) are particularly common in British industrial cities and were originally designed to allow access to the rear of properties by coalmen and refuse collectors.

Structural biology of the TRPM4 channel: architecture, modulation, and therapeutic opportunities

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology
TRPM4 is a Ca2+-activated, monovalent-selective cation channel that conducts Na+ and K+ while remaining essentially impermeable to Ca2+. By translating cytosolic Ca2+ elevations into membrane depolarization rather than additional Ca2+ influx, TRPM4 ...

Effects of repetitive practice of motor tasks on somatosensory gating

open access: yesFrontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2023
IntroductionDuring voluntary muscle contraction, the amplitude of the somatosensory evoked potential (SEP) is reduced by inhibiting sensory information from a peripheral nerve supplying the contracted muscle.

Glutathione accelerates sodium channel inactivation in excised rat axonal membrane patches [PDF]

open access: yes, 1992
The effects of glutathione were studied on the gating behaviour of sodium channels in membrane patches of rat axons. Depolarizing pulses from –120 to –40 mV elicited sodium currents of up to 500 pA, indicating the simultaneous activation of up to 250 ...

Paclitaxel induces NM2‐dependent cellular contraction through GEF‐H1 dissociation from microtubules and RhoA/ROCK activation in cancer cells

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Taxanes are widely used chemotherapeutics whose effects on cellular mechanics remain poorly understood. We show that paclitaxel induces rapid cellular contraction by promoting GEF‐H1 dissociation from microtubules and non‐muscle myosin II activation through RhoA/ROCK.

Cardio-respiratory-gated proton pencil beam scanning for cardiac ablation: workflow and end-to-end validation

open access: yesFrontiers in Oncology
BackgroundStereotactic Arrhythmia Radiotherapy (STAR) offers a non-invasive alternative for ventricular tachycardia ablation, yet motion management remains a critical challenge. While respiratory gating is established, cardiac gating requires a dedicated

The Role of Proton Transport in Gating Current in a Voltage Gated Ion Channel, as Shown by Quantum Calculations

open access: yesSensors, 2018
Over two-thirds of a century ago, Hodgkin and Huxley proposed the existence of voltage gated ion channels (VGICs) to carry Na+ and K+ ions across the cell membrane to create the nerve impulse, in response to depolarization of the membrane.

A pathogenic human Orai1 mutation unmasks STIM1-independent rapid inactivation of Orai1 channels

open access: yeseLife, 2023
Ca2+ release-activated Ca2+ (CRAC) channels are activated by direct physical interactions between Orai1, the channel protein, and STIM1, the endoplasmic reticulum Ca2+ sensor.

High quality testing of grid style power gating [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
This paper shows that existing delay-based testing techniques for power gating exhibit fault coverage loss due to unconsidered delays introduced by the structure of the virtual voltage power-distribution-network (VPDN).

Bridging the gap: a genetically validated avian chorioallantoic membrane platform for investigation of spontaneous circulating tumor cells

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
We established the avian chorioallantoic membrane (CAM) assay as a scalable in vivo model for studying circulating tumor cells (CTCs). Human gastrointestinal tumors spontaneously released genetically validated CTCs that were detected across multiple platforms, demonstrating that the CAM model provides an accessible tool for investigating early cancer ...
