Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2021 Reactive oxygen species (ROS) oxidize surrounding molecules and thus impair their functions. Since mitochondria are a major source of ROS, suppression of ROS overproduction in the mitochondria is important for cells.

The Multi-Conductivity Clausius-Mossotti Factor as an Electrophysiology Rosetta Stone: Dielectrophoresis, Membrane Potential and Zeta Potential. [PDF]
Micromachines (Basel)Dielectrophoresis (DEP) has been used for decades to estimate the passive electrical properties of cells. However, the body of work on cell electrophysiology derived from Clausius–Mossotti analysis of DEP-derived data pales to insignificance against the ...

Light/Clock Influences Membrane Potential Dynamics to Regulate Sleep States
Frontiers in Neurology, 2021 The circadian rhythm is a fundamental process that regulates the sleep–wake cycle. This rhythm is regulated by core clock genes that oscillate to create a physiological rhythm of circadian neuronal activity.

Macroscopic control of cell electrophysiology through ion channel expression
eLife, 2022 Cells convert electrical signals into chemical outputs to facilitate the active transport of information across larger distances. This electrical-to-chemical conversion requires a tightly regulated expression of ion channels.

Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2020 Trypanosoma cruzi develops in environments where nutrient availability, osmolarity, ionic concentrations, and pH undergo significant changes. The ability to adapt and respond to such conditions determines the survival and successful transmission of T ...

Calcium Signaling in Plant-Insect Interactions
Plants, 2022 In plant–insect interactions, calcium (Ca2+) variations are among the earliest events associated with the plant perception of biotic stress. Upon herbivory, Ca2+ waves travel long distances to transmit and convert the local signal to a systemic defense ...
