Selective Lipolysis by Photoactivation of Chaperone‐Mediated Autophagy Using Adipocyte Membrane‐Coated Nanoparticle in Hydrogel

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Adipocyte membrane‐coated nanoparticles loaded with rosiglitazone in hydrogel offer an alternative approach to conventional obesity treatments. This system selectively targets adipocytes, inducing lipolysis by activating chaperone‐mediated autophagy through mild photothermal stimulation.

Interactions of Interaural Time and Level Differences in Spatial Hearing with Cochlear Implants

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Differences in timing (ΔT) are weighted heavily compared to differences in loudness (ΔL) in binaural hearing with cochlear implants. Abstract Normally hearing humans can localize sound sources quite accurately, with minimum audible angles as small as 1°. To achieve this, these auditory pathways combine information from multiple acoustic cues, including

Conductance Changes of Na⁺ Channels during the Late Na⁺ Current Flowing under Action Potential Voltage Clamp Conditions in Canine, Rabbit, and Guinea Pig Ventricular Myocytes

Pharmaceuticals, 2023
Late sodium current (INa,late) is an important inward current contributing to the plateau phase of the action potential (AP) in the mammalian heart. Although INa,late is considered as a possible target for antiarrhythmic agents, several aspects of this ...

Identity and Function of a Cardiac Mitochondrial Small Conductance Ca2+-Activated K+ Channel Splice Variant [PDF]

, 2017
We provide evidence for location and function of a small conductance, Ca2+-activated K+ (SKCa) channel isoform 3 (SK3) in mitochondria (m) of guinea pig, rat and human ventricular myocytes. SKCa agonists protected isolated hearts and mitochondria against

Hippocampal Chandelier Cells Modulate Seizure Susceptibility and Severity

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The axon initial segment (AIS), crucial for action potential initiation, serves as a prime locus for controlling network activity. Chandelier Cells (ChCs), evolved in the mammals, intricately target AISs, acting as gatekeepers for neuronal firing. Diminishing ChC input makes animals more prone to developing seizures, whereas fortifying this connection ...
