Nanomaterials as Microglia Modulators in the Treatment of Central Nervous System Disorders
Advanced Healthcare Materials, Volume 13, Issue 12, May 7, 2024.Microglia activation states M1 and M2, besides their physiological roles, play key roles in the onset and progression of various CNS disorders. The modulation of microglia activity using nanomaterials represents a promising therapeutic approach for the treatment of these diseases (created with BioRender.com).

Programmable reconfiguration of Physarum machines [PDF]
Natural Computing, 2009 Plasmodium of Physarum polycephalum is a large cell capable of solving graph-theoretic, optimization and computational geometry problems due to its unique foraging behavior. Also the plasmodium is unique biological substrate that mimics universal storage modification machines, namely the Kolmogorov-Uspensky machine.

How vulnerable is an undirected planar graph with respect to max flow
Networks, Volume 83, Issue 3, Page 570-586, April 2024.Abstract We study the problem of computing the vitality of edges and vertices with respect to the st$$ st $$‐max flow in undirected planar graphs, where the vitality of an edge/vertex is the st$$ st $$‐max flow decrease when the edge/vertex is removed from the graph. This allows us to establish the vulnerability of the graph with respect to the st$$ st

Spatial mapping reveals multi-step pattern of wound healing in Physarum polycephalum
, 2017 Wounding is a severe impairment of function, especially for an exposed organism like the network-forming true slime mould Physarum polycephalum. The tubular network making up the organism's body plan is entirely interconnected and shares a common ...

Physarum machines imitating a Roman road network: the 3D approach
Scientific Reports, 2017 Physarum Polycephalum is a single cell visible by unaided eye. This is a plasmodial, vegetative stage of acellular slime mould. This single cell has myriad of nuclei which contribute to a network of bio-chemical oscillators responsible for the slime ...
