Non-linear population firing rates and voltage sensitive dye signals in visual areas 17 and 18 to short duration stimuli. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2008
Visual stimuli of short duration seem to persist longer after the stimulus offset than stimuli of longer duration. This visual persistence must have a physiological explanation.

The Impact of Anomalous Diffusion on Action Potentials in Myelinated Neurons

open access: yesFractal and Fractional, 2021
Action potentials in myelinated neurons happen only at specialized locations of the axons known as the nodes of Ranvier. The shapes, timings, and propagation speeds of these action potentials are controlled by biochemical interactions among neurons ...

Dynamic Theory of Membrane Potentials

open access: yesThe Journal of Physical Chemistry B, 2010
An accurate understanding of the dynamics of membrane potential formation underpins modern electrophysiology and much of cell biochemistry. Computer simulations using a Nernst-Planck-Poisson (NPP) finite difference method are used to model the dynamic evolution of a series of membrane systems in which two reservoirs of electrolyte solution are ...

Influence of Phenolic Acids on Ion Uptake: IV. Depolarization of Membrane Potentials.

open access: yesPlant Physiology, 1974
The membrane potentials of aged, excised barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) root cells were rapidly depolarized by the addition of salicylic acid (o-hydroxybenzoic acid) to the buffered medium bathing root segments.

The dual nature of TDC – bridging dendritic and T cells in immunity

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
TDC are hematopoietic cells combining dendritic and T cell features. They reach secondary lymphoid organs (SLOs) and peripheral organs (liver and lungs) after FLT3‐dependent development in the bone marrow and maturation in the thymus. TDC are activated and enriched in SLOs upon viral infection, suggesting that they might play unique immune roles, since

The membrane dipole potential in a total membrane potential model. Applications to hydrophobic ion interactions with membranes

open access: yesBiophysical Journal, 1986
The total potential energy profile for hydrophobic ion interactions with lipid bilayers can be written as the sum of four terms: the electrical Born, image and dipole contributions, and a neutral energy term. We introduce a specific model for the membrane dipole potential, treating it as a two-dimensional array of point dipoles located near each ...

Leveraging current insights on IL‐10‐producing dendritic cells for developing effective immunotherapeutic approaches

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
In vivo IL‐10 produced by tissue‐resident tolDC is involved in maintaining/inducing tolerance. Depending on the agent used for ex vivo tolDC generation, cells acquire common features but prime T cells towards anergy, FOXP3+ Tregs, or Tr1 cells according to the levels of IL‐10 produced. Ex vivo‐induced tolDC were administered to patients to re‐establish/

Insights into PI3K/AKT signaling in B cell development and chronic lymphocytic leukemia

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This Review explores how the phosphoinositide 3‐kinase and protein kinase B pathway shapes B cell development and drives chronic lymphocytic leukemia, a common blood cancer. It examines how signaling levels affect disease progression, addresses treatment challenges, and introduces novel experimental strategies to improve therapies and patient outcomes.

Detection of Membrane Potential in Mycobacterium tuberculosis

open access: yesBio-Protocol, 2013
DiOC2 (Novo et al., 2000) exhibits green fluorescence in all bacterial cells, but the fluorescence shifts towards red emission as the dye molecules self associate at the higher cytosolic concentrations caused by larger membrane potentials.

Striatal cholinergic interneuron membrane voltage tracks locomotor rhythms in mice

open access: yesNature Communications, 2023
Rhythmic neural network activity has been broadly linked to behavior. However, it is unclear how membrane potentials of individual neurons track behavioral rhythms, even though many neurons exhibit pace-making properties in isolated brain circuits.
