Distortion Distribution of Neural Spike Train Sequence Matching with Optogenetics [PDF]
, 2017 This paper uses a simple optogenetic model to compare the timing distortion between a randomly-generated target spike sequence and an externally-stimulated neuron spike sequence. Optogenetics is an emerging field of neuroscience where neurons are genetically modified to express light-sensitive receptors that enable external control over when the ...

Optogenetic regulation of transcription [PDF]
BMC Neuroscience, 2018 Optogenetics has become widely recognized for its success in real-time control of brain neurons by utilizing non-mammalian photosensitive proteins to open or close membrane channels. Here we review a less well known type of optogenetic constructs that employs photosensitive proteins to transduce the signal to regulate gene transcription, and its ...

Food Bioengineering, Volume 1, Issue 3-4, Page 276-288, December 2022., 2022 Colorless and translucent polyamide 4 (PA4) films, which are both bio‐based and biodegradable, were prepared by the solution casting method in a dual‐solvent system. The physical properties of single PA4 films were originally characterized, and the effects of molecular weight and environmental humidity on PA4 were investigated. Abstract The development

Bringing Optogenetics to the Synapse [PDF]
Neuron, 2013 In this issue of Neuron, Lin et al. (2013) describe InSynC, an optogenetic approach that utilizes chromophore-assisted light inactivation (CALI) to inactivate presynaptic neurotransmitter release proteins VAMP2 and synaptophysin. InSynC selectively reduces synaptic transmission in illuminated regions in vitro and in vivo.
