Exact Probability Landscapes of Stochastic Phenotype Switching in Feed-Forward Loops: Phase Diagrams of Multimodality

Frontiers in Genetics, 2021
Feed-forward loops (FFLs) are among the most ubiquitously found motifs of reaction networks in nature. However, little is known about their stochastic behavior and the variety of network phenotypes they can exhibit.

A Bilateral Craniectomy Technique for In Vivo Photoacoustic Brain Imaging

Applied Sciences, 2023
Due to the high possibility of mechanical damage to the underlying tissues attached to the rat skull during a craniectomy, previously described methods for visualization of the rat brain in vivo are limited to unilateral craniotomies and small cranial ...

The effects of central angiotensin II and its specific blockers on nociception: Possible interactions with oxidative stress status [PDF]

Journal of Medical Biochemistry, 2013
It has already been demonstrated that a complete brain renin angiotensin system (RAS) exists distinctly separate from the peripheral system and is implicated in complex functions such as memory, emotional responses and pain. Regarding the implications of
