The representation of colored objects in macaque color patches

open access: yesNature Communications, 2017
Neurons in the inferotemporal cortex (IT) encode object identity; however, how object color is represented here is not well understood. Here the authors report that neurons from three color patches in macaque IT encode significant information regarding ...

Drosophila Neural Stem Cells in Brain Development and Tumor Formation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Neuroblasts, the neural stem cells in Drosophila, generate the complex neural structure of the central nervous system. Significant progress has been made in understanding the mechanisms regulating the self-renewal, proliferation, and differentiation in ...

Prior Exposure to Immunosuppressors Sensitizes Retinal Microglia and Accelerates Optic Nerve Regeneration in Zebrafish

open access: yesMediators of Inflammation, 2019
As adult mammals lack the capacity to replace or repair damaged neurons, degeneration and trauma (and subsequent dysfunction) of the central nervous system (CNS) seriously constrains the patient’s life quality.

Dcf1 Deficiency Attenuates the Role of Activated Microglia During Neuroinflammation

open access: yesFrontiers in Molecular Neuroscience, 2018
Microglia serve as the principal immune cells and play crucial roles in the central nervous system, responding to neuroinflammation via migration and the execution of phagocytosis. Dendritic cell-derived factor 1 (Dcf1) is known to play an important role

miR-155 down-regulation protects the heart from hypoxic damage by activating fructose metabolism in cardiac fibroblasts

open access: yesJournal of Advanced Research, 2022
Introduction: Hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF)1α has been shown to be activated and induces a glycolytic shift under hypoxic condition, however, little attention was paid to the role of HIF1α-actuated fructolysis in hypoxia-induced heart injury. Objectives:

Reliable interpretability of biology-inspired deep neural networks

open access: yesnpj Systems Biology and Applications, 2023
Abstract Deep neural networks display impressive performance but suffer from limited interpretability. Biology-inspired deep learning, where the architecture of the computational graph is based on biological knowledge, enables unique interpretability where real-world concepts are encoded in hidden nodes, which can be ranked by ...

Targeted transgenic RNAi knockdown of cell fate determinants induces neoplastic tumor growth and metastasis in a Drosophila transplantation model of neural stem cell derived cancer [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Genetic models such as Drosophila have sophisticated transgenic and molecular genetic tools available to investigate proliferation control in normal and tumorigenic neural stem cells.

Insights into neural stem cell biology from flies [PDF]

open access: yesPhilosophical Transactions of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences, 2007
Drosophilaneuroblasts are similar to mammalian neural stem cells in their ability to self-renew and to produce many different types of neurons and glial cells. In the past two decades, great advances have been made in understanding the molecular mechanisms underlying embryonic neuroblast formation, the establishment of cell polarity and the temporal ...
