Recent Advances in Variable‐Stiffness Robotic Systems Enabled by Phase‐Change Materials

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Phase‐change materials (PCMs), such as shape memory alloys, hydrogels, shape memory polymers, liquid crystal elastomers, and low‐melting‐point alloys, are driving advancements in stiffness‐tunable robotic systems across a wide range of applications. This review highlights recent progress in PCM‐enabled robotics, focusing on their underlying mechanisms,

Neurotrophins and Neuronal Plasticity

Science, 1995
There is increasing evidence that neurotrophins (NTs) are involved in processes of neuronal plasticity besides their well-established actions in regulating the survival, differentiation, and maintenance of functions of specific populations of neurons.

Adenosine and neuronal plasticity

Life Sciences, 1996
Adenosine is considered an important neuromodulator of the nervous system acting at pre-, post- and non-synaptic levels. In the present review we describe how adenosine modifies paired-pulse facilitation (PPF), posttetanic depression (PTD), long-term potentiation (LTP), long-term depression (LTD) and depotentiation at the hippocampus, and therefore how

Plasticity of neuronal receptors

The FASEB Journal, 1989
This article describes ways in which receptors, key components of signal propagation through a synapse, can mediate changes in that propagation. Changes occur at four levels: in the signal-transducing capability of a single receptor molecule, in the number of receptors per cell, in the subcellular placement of receptor molecules, and in the ...

Brain Aging and Neuronal Plasticitya

Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences, 1992
In the present paper three aspects of the aging processes and their physiopathological implications will be presented: neuronal death, the information handling capabilityof neurons, and the processes of interneuronal communication.

Neuronal plasticity and memory.

American Journal of Orthopsychiatry, 1969
All of the somatic therapies useful in psychiatry modify synaptic membrane activity. Future investigations may discover means by which pathways can be selectively activated or deactivated, not only by learning but with the aid of chemical interventions.

Establishment and plasticity of neuronal polarity

Journal of Neuroscience Research, 1999
A fundamental feature of neurons is that they possess a polarized morphology, typified by a single long axon and several short dendrites. This cellular polarity forms the basis for directionalized rapid signaling, and for bi-directional trophic signaling, in neuronal circuits. While a catalog of structural, molecular, and functional differences between
