Push-Pull Control of Motor Output [PDF]
, 2012 Inhibition usually decreases input–output excitability of neurons. If, however, inhibition is coupled to excitation in a push–pull fashion, where inhibition decreases as excitation increases, neuron excitability can be increased. Although the presence of

Stretching the limits of maximal voluntary eccentric force production in vivo
Journal of Sport and Health Science, 2018 During eccentric contractions, muscular force production capacity is enhanced compared to isometric contractions. Although this is well accepted in terms of muscle mechanics, maximal voluntary eccentric contractions are associated with neural inhibition ...

Lateral inhibition: inherent recurrent processes in coherent optical propagation [PDF]
, 1994 Processes that are analogous to the neural process of recurrent lateral inhibition can be found in optical systems that consist of a shift-invariant system and a Fabry-Perot cavity.

Highly efficient neural conversion of human ES and iPS cells by dual inhibition of SMAD signaling
Nature Biotechnology, 2009 Current neural induction protocols for human embryonic stem (hES) cells rely on embryoid body formation, stromal feeder co-culture or selective survival conditions.

Inhibitory control of correlated intrinsic variability in cortical networks
eLife, 2016 Cortical networks exhibit intrinsic dynamics that drive coordinated, large-scale fluctuations across neuronal populations and create noise correlations that impact sensory coding.

Nifurtimox Is Effective Against Neural Tumor Cells and Is Synergistic with Buthionine Sulfoximine. [PDF]
, 2016 Children with aggressive neural tumors have poor survival rates and novel therapies are needed. Previous studies have identified nifurtimox and buthionine sulfoximine (BSO) as effective agents in children with neuroblastoma and medulloblastoma.

Simulating Cortical Feedback Modulation as Changes in Excitation and Inhibition in a Cortical Circuit Model. [PDF]
, 2016 Cortical feedback pathways are hypothesized to distribute context-dependent signals during flexible behavior. Recent experimental work has attempted to understand the mechanisms by which cortical feedback inputs modulate their target regions.

Engineering a Light-Regulated GABAA Receptor for Optical Control of Neural Inhibition
ACS Chemical Biology, 2014 Optogenetics has become an emerging technique for neuroscience investigations owing to the great spatiotemporal precision and the target selectivity it provides. Here we extend the optogenetic strategy to GABAA receptors (GABAARs), the major mediators of
