Nanomaterials as Microglia Modulators in the Treatment of Central Nervous System Disorders

open access: yesAdvanced 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).

How vulnerable is an undirected planar graph with respect to max flow

open access: yesNetworks, 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

Myxomycetes of the rotting cherry wood

open access: yesActa Mycologica, 2014
During the years 1974-1975 on rotting cherry wood development of some Myxomycetes was observed. In that time 6 species of slime molds were noted: Arcyria denudata, Comatricha typhoides, Dyctidium cancellatum, Lycogala epidendrum, Physarum cinereum ...

Sustainable sweetpotato production in the United States: Current status, challenges, and opportunities

open access: yesAgronomy Journal, Volume 116, Issue 2, Page 630-660, March/April 2024.
Abstract Sweetpotato (Ipomoea batatas L.) is an important staple crop cultivated in over 100 countries, and the storage roots and vines provide food for humans and livestock. Sweetpotato consumption and demand for its value‐added products have increased significantly in the last two decades and have led to new cultivar development, expansion in acreage,

First records of rare epiphytic species Physarum lakhanpalii and Ph. lenticulare for Russia

open access: yesTurczaninowia, 2019
Epiphytic species are still the least studied group of myxomycetes, because of their life cycle, substrate specialization and method of search using “moist chambers”. The Russian’s first records of the Physarum lakhanpalii Nann.-Bremek.et Y. Yamam.

The Physarum Computer [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Physarum is a slime mold. It was observed over the past 10 years that the mold is able to solve shortest path problems and to construct good Steiner networks [2,4]. In a nutshell, the shortest path experiment is as follows: A maze is built and the mold is made to cover the entire maze. Food is then provided at two positions s and t and the evolution of
