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

Neuronal oscillations enhance stimulus discrimination by ensuring action potential precision

open access: yes, 2006
Although oscillations in membrane potential are a prominent feature of sensory, motor, and cognitive function, their precise role in signal processing remains elusive.

Circadian oscillation of gibberellin signaling in Arabidopsis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Circadian clocks are endogenous timekeeping mechanisms that allow organisms to anticipate rhythmic, daily environmental changes. Temporal coordination of transcription results in a set of gene expression patterns with peak levels occurring ...

Transient down-regulation of beta1 integrin subtypes on kidney carcinoma cells is induced by mechanical contact with endothelial cell membranes

open access: yes, 2007
Adhesion molecules of the integrin beta1 family are thought to be involved in the malignant progression renal cell carcinoma (RCC). Still, it is not clear how they contribute to this process.

Experimental Design for Stochastic Models of Nonlinear Signaling Pathways Using an Interval-Wise Linear Noise Approximation and State Estimation. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2016
BACKGROUND:Computational modeling is a key technique for analyzing models in systems biology. There are well established methods for the estimation of the kinetic parameters in models of ordinary differential equations (ODE).

Autonomous Ca2+ Oscillations Reflect Oncogenic Signaling in B-ALL Cells

open access: yesBlood, 2019
Background: Engagement of the B-cell receptor (BCR) results in Ca2+ flux and is linked to B-cell survival based on store-operated Ca2+ entry (SOCE), which is triggered by ORAI1 and stromal interaction molecule-1 (STIM1). While normal B-cells release Ca2+ only in response to external stimuli (e.g. BCR-engagement), we recently observed that transformed B-

Circadian Oscillation of Sulfiredoxin in the Mitochondria

open access: yes, 2015
Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) released from mitochondria regulates various cell signaling pathways. Given that H2O2-eliminating enzymes such as peroxiredoxin III (PrxIII) are abundant in mitochondria, however, it has remained unknown how such release can ...

Digital image processing of optical density wave propagation in Dictyostelium discoideum and analysis of the effects of caffeine and ammonia [PDF]

open access: yes, 1989
Waves of chemotactic movement during the early phase of aggregation in Dictyostelium discoideum were analyzed by digital image processing in a manner that immediately shows the following parameters: wave propagation velocity, period length, wave ...

PARK(ing) time–How park deficiency affects the biological clock in a Drosophila model of Parkinson's disease

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Drosophila park mutants serve as a model for Parkinson's disease. We used this strain to investigate the connection between oxidative stress and the circadian clock mechanism. We showed that increased oxidative stress affects the physiology of pacemaker cells, disrupting their daily structural plasticity. Lack of rhythmic signaling from pacemaker cells

IP3-Dependent Ca2+ Oscillations Switch into a Dual Oscillator Mechanism in the Presence of PLC-Linked Hormones

open access: yesiScience, 2020
Summary: Ca2+ oscillations that depend on inositol-1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3) have been ascribed to biphasic Ca2+ regulation of the IP3 receptor (IP3R) or feedback mechanisms controlling IP3 levels in different cell types.
