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,

Entrainment of heterogeneous glycolytic oscillations in single cells [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports 5 (2015) 9404, 2015
Cell signaling, gene expression, and metabolism are affected by cell-cell heterogeneity and random changes in the environment. The effects of such fluctuations on cell signaling and gene expression have recently been studied intensively using single-cell experiments.

FGF signaling controls somite boundary position and regulates segmentation clock control of spatiotemporal Hox gene activation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
Vertebrate segmentation requires a molecular oscillator, the segmentation clock, acting in presomitic mesoderm (PSM) cells to set the pace at which segmental boundaries are laid down. However, the signals that position each boundary remain unclear. Here,

Spontaneous Spatiotemporal Ordering of Shape Oscillations Enhances Cell Migration [PDF]

open access: yesSoft Matter 15, 4939 (2019), 2019
The migration of cells is relevant for processes such as morphogenesis, wound healing, and invasion of cancer cells. In order to move, single cells deform cyclically. However, it is not understood how these shape oscillations influence collective properties.

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

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.

Effects of Positive Allosteric Modulators on Single-Cell Oscillatory Ca2+ Signaling Initiated by the Type 5 Metabotropic Glutamate Receptor

open access: yesMolecular Pharmacology, 2009
Agonist stimulation of the type 5 metabotropic glutamate (mGlu5) receptor initiates robust oscillatory changes in cytosolic Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]i) in single cells by rapid, repeated cycles of phosphorylation/dephosphorylation of the mGlu5 receptor,

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.

Optogenetic perturbation and bioluminescence imaging to analyze cell-to-cell transfer of oscillatory information.

open access: yesGenes & Development, 2017
Cells communicate with each other to coordinate their gene activities at the population level through signaling pathways. It has been shown that many gene activities are oscillatory and that the frequency and phase of oscillatory gene expression encode ...

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 ...
