Photoswitchable diacylglycerols enable optical control of protein kinase C. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Increased levels of the second messenger lipid diacylglycerol (DAG) induce downstream signaling events including the translocation of C1-domain-containing proteins toward the plasma membrane. Here, we introduce three light-sensitive DAGs, termed PhoDAGs,

Cholesterol-induced robust Ca oscillation in astrocytes required for survival and lipid droplet formation in high-cholesterol condition

open access: yesiScience, 2022
Summary: Cholesterol, one of the major cell membrane components, stabilizes membrane fluidity and regulates signal transduction. Beside its canonical roles, cholesterol has been reported to directly activate signaling pathways such as hedgehog (Hh).

Oscillation dynamics underlie functional switching of NF-κB for B-cell activation. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Transcription factor nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB) shows cooperative switch-like activation followed by prolonged oscillatory nuclear translocation in response to extracellular stimuli.

Multiplexing oscillatory biochemical signals [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
In recent years it is increasingly being recognized that biochemical signals are not necessarily constant in time and that the temporal dynamics of a signal can be the information carrier.

Genetic disruption of the core circadian clock impairs hippocampus-dependent memory [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Perturbing the circadian system by electrolytically lesioning the suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN) or varying the environmental light:dark schedule impairs memory, suggesting that memory depends on the circadian system.

Splice variants of DOMINO control Drosophila circadian behavior and pacemaker neuron maintenance. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Circadian clocks control daily rhythms in behavior and physiology. In Drosophila, the small ventral lateral neurons (sLNvs) expressing PIGMENT DISPERSING FACTOR (PDF) are the master pacemaker neurons generating locomotor rhythms.

Resonance in the Mouse Ventral Tegmental Area Dopaminergic Network Induced by Regular and Poisson Distributed Optogenetic Stimulation in-vitro

open access: yesFrontiers in Computational Neuroscience, 2020
Neurons in many brain regions exhibit spontaneous, intrinsic rhythmic firing activity. This rhythmic firing activity may determine the way in which these neurons respond to extrinsic synaptic inputs. We hypothesized that neurons should be most responsive

Dynamic intracellular mechanical cues facilitate collective signaling responses

open access: yesiScience, 2021
Summary: Collective behavior emerges in diverse life machineries, e.g., the immune responses to dynamic stimulations. The essential questions that arise here are that whether and how cells in vivo collectively respond to stimulation frequencies higher ...

p75 neurotrophin receptor is a clock gene that regulates oscillatory components of circadian and metabolic networks. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The p75 neurotrophin receptor (p75(NTR)) is a member of the tumor necrosis factor receptor superfamily with a widespread pattern of expression in tissues such as the brain, liver, lung, and muscle.

PLCγ2 controls neutrophil-like cell sensitivity through calcium oscillation and gates chemoattractant concentration range for chemotaxis

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology
The relationship between calcium oscillation and cell sensitivity is poorly understood. Calcium oscillation can occur spontaneously or be triggered upon receptor-ligand binding.
