Implantable Light‐Powered Human Designer Cells for Electrical Energy Generation
Inspired by the eel's electric organ, a miniature implantable biohybrid device is developed to generate electricity under light activation. The device utilizes a light‐dependent ion gradient formation that induced by genetically engineered human designer cells that express light‐sensitive membrane ion channels and proton pumps, working in synergy with ...

A Comparative Study of Modern Homology Modeling Algorithms for Rhodopsin Structure Prediction [PDF]
Rhodopsins are seven α-helical membrane proteins that are of great importance in chemistry, biology, and modern biotechnology. Any in silico study on rhodopsin properties and functioning requires a high-quality three-dimensional structure.

Electrostatic Influence on Photoisomerization in Bacteriorhodopsin and Halorhodopsin
Bacteriorhodopsin (bR) and halorhodopsin (hR) are both membrane proteins that transport ions across the cell membrane in halobacteria. Their ion transport function is triggered by photoactivated isomerization of the retinal protonated Schiff base (RPSB) chromophore.

ABSTRACT Background and Aims Parkinson's disease (PD) is a progressive neurological condition that consists of both motor and non‐motor symptoms that considerably deteriorate the quality of life. Pharmacological treatments, primarily levodopa, have been used to manage PD. However, side effects such as dyskinesias and motor fluctuations frequently limit

Characterizing optogenetically mediated rebound effects in anaesthetized mouse primary visual cortex
Abstract figure legend Many studies of cortical circuits use optogenetic activation of inhibitory interneurons to suppress pyramidal cell activity, but after the light is turned off pyramidal cells sometimes show excess spiking, which is called a post‐inhibitory rebound.

Revisiting the Role of Infralimbic Cortex in Fear Extinction with Optogenetics
Previous rodent studies have implicated the infralimbic (IL) subregion of the medial prefrontal cortex in extinction of auditory fear conditioning. However, these studies used pharmacological inactivation or electrical stimulation techniques, which lack ...
