Amyloidogenic Peptide Fragments Designed From Bacterial Collagen‐like Proteins Form Hydrogel
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.This study identified amyloidogenic sequence motifs in bacterial collagen‐like proteins and exploited these to design peptides that self‐assemble into β‐sheet fibers and form hydrogels. One hydrogel supported healthy fibroblast growth, showing promise for biocompatible materials. Our work demonstrates that bacterial sequences can be harnessed to create

Network structure determines patterns of network reorganization during adult neurogenesis [PDF]
, 2009 New cells are generated throughout life and integrate into the hippocampus via the process of adult neurogenesis. Epileptogenic brain injury induces many structural changes in the hippocampus, including the death of interneurons and altered connectivity ...

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.The repair and regeneration of brain tissue faces both biological and technical challenges. Injectable bioscaffolds offer new opportunities to stimulate tissue regrowth in the brain by recruiting neural stem cells. Here, the translational issues are reviewed that need to be address to advance this promising new therapeutic approach from the bench to ...

PSD-95 Is Associated with the Postsynaptic Density and Not with the Presynaptic Membrane at Forebrain Synapses [PDF]
, 1996 PSD-95, a prominent protein component of the postsynaptic density (PSD) fraction from rat forebrain, has been localized by light microscopy to dendrites of hippocampal neurons (Cho et al., 1992) and to the presynaptic plexus of cerebellar basket cells ...

Enzymes of the Mast Cell Granule
Journal of Investigative Dermatology, 1980 Rat mast cell granules contain a spectrum of enzymes as established by histochemical techniques and subcellular fractionation. However, 35% of the beta-glucuronidase, 30% of the beta-D-galactosidase, 14% of the beta-hexosaminidase and all of the acid phosphatase is not available for immunologic release from purified rat serosal mast cells, suggesting ...

Denervation-induced homeostatic dendritic plasticity in morphological granule cell models
Frontiers in Systems Neuroscience, 2014 Neuronal death and subsequent denervation of target areas are major consequences of several neurological conditions such asischemia or neurodegeneration (Alzheimer's disease). The denervation-induced axonal loss results in reorganization of the dendritic

Adaptive Neural Models of Queuing and Timing in Fluent Action [PDF]
, 2003 Temporal structure in skilled, fluent action exists at several nested levels. At the largest scale considered here, short sequences of actions that are planned collectively in prefrontal cortex appear to be queued for performance by a cyclic competitive ...
