Physical Activity Modulates Corticospinal Excitability of the Lower Limb in Young and Old Adults [PDF]
Aging is associated with reduced neuromuscular function, which may be due in part to altered corticospinal excitability. Regular physical activity (PA) may ameliorate these age-related declines, but the influence of PA on corticospinal excitability is ...

Mutations in Escherichia coli aceE and ribB genes allow survival of strains defective in the first step of the isoprenoid biosynthesis pathway. [PDF]
A functional 2-C-methyl-D-erythritol 4-phosphate (MEP) pathway is required for isoprenoid biosynthesis and hence survival in Escherichia coli and most other bacteria.

Pain-motor integration in the primary motor cortex in Parkinson's disease [PDF]
In Parkinson's disease (PD), the influence of chronic pain on motor features has never been investigated. We have recently designed a technique that combines nociceptive system activation by laser stimuli and primary motor cortex (M1) activation through ...

Engineering Production of a Novel Diterpene Synthase Precursor in Nicotiana benthamiana
Diterpene biosynthesis commonly originates with the methylerythritol phosphate (MEP) pathway in chloroplasts, leading to the C20 substrate, geranylgeranyl pyrophosphate (GGPP).

A comparative study of Gaussian Graphical Model approaches for genomic data [PDF]
The inference of networks of dependencies by Gaussian Graphical models on high-throughput data is an open issue in modern molecular biology. In this paper we provide a comparative study of three methods to obtain small sample and high dimension estimates

Interplay of the two ancient metabolites auxin and MEcPP regulates adaptive growth. [PDF]
The ancient morphoregulatory hormone auxin dynamically realigns dedicated cellular processes that shape plant growth under prevailing environmental conditions. However, the nature of the stress-responsive signal altering auxin homeostasis remains elusive.

Mapping the cortical representation of the lumbar paravertebral muscles [PDF]
Objective: The aim of this study was to map the cortical representation of the lumbar spine paravertebral (LP) muscles in healthy subjects. Methods: Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) was employed to map the cortical representations of the LP ...
