Phages in the Human Body [PDF]
Bacteriophages, viruses that infect bacteria, have re-emerged as powerful regulators of bacterial populations in natural ecosystems. Phages invade the human body, just as they do other natural environments, to such an extent that they are the most numerous group in the human virome. This was only revealed in recent metagenomic studies, despite the fact

Human body fluids are considered as attractive sources for clinical markers. As for disease diagnosis and prognosis, advantages of body fluid testing include low invasiveness, low cost, and rapid sample collection and processing. Besides, altered protein expression profiles in body fluids reflect the change of physiological states and cellular networks

It took nearly 1500 years for this evolution in anatomic thinking to transpire.

Body models in humans and robots [PDF]
Neurocognitive models of higher-level somatosensory processing have emphasised the role of stored body representations in interpreting real-time sensory signals coming from the body (Longo, Azanon and Haggard, 2010; Tame, Azanon and Longo, 2019). The need for such stored representations arises from the fact that immediate sensory signals coming from ...

Protection of the brain against heat damage
In homeothermic animals, metabolic heat production in the brain is higher than in other tissues. However, cerebral tissue is susceptible to heat. Several animals have mechanisms that selectively cool the brain during hyperthermia (i.e., selective brain ...
