Mechanisms of parasite‐mediated disruption of brain vessels
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Parasites can affect the blood vessels of the brain, often causing serious neurological problems. This review explains how different parasites interact with and disrupt these vessels, what this means for brain health, and why these processes matter. Understanding these mechanisms may help us develop better ways to prevent or treat brain infections in ...

Frontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2014 Functional connectivity is of central importance in understanding brain function. For this purpose, multiple time series of electric cortical activity can be used for assessing the properties of a network: the strength, directionality, and spectral ...

Physiology in Perspective: The Importance of Integrative Physiology [PDF]
Physiology, 2017 “The doctor of the future will give no medicine, but will interest his (her) patients in the care of the human frame, in diet, and in the cause and prevention of disease.” This comment, attributed to Thomas Edison, presaged the modern concepts of managed health care, health ...

Time after time – circadian clocks through the lens of oscillator theory
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Oscillator theory bridges physics and circadian biology. Damped oscillators require external drivers, while limit cycles emerge from delayed feedback and nonlinearities. Coupling enables tissue‐level coherence, and entrainment aligns internal clocks with environmental cues.

Integrative physiology: facts and theories [PDF]
European Journal of Applied Physiology, 2008 Nine years ago, upon accepting Dr. Rolf Lange’s invitation, on behalf of Springer-Verlag, to become Editor-in-Chief of the European Journal of Applied Physiology, I was pondering the role of integrative and system physiology in the vast landscape of the life sciences. In spite of the scornful deWnition of “paleophysiology” by some younger colleagues, I

Integration of psychological models in the design of artificial creatures [PDF]
, 2004 Artificial creatures form an increasingly important component of interactive computer games. Examples of such creatures exist which can interact with each other and the game player and learn from their experiences.

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Cryptochrome and PAS/LOV proteins play intricate roles in circadian clocks where they act as both sensors and mediators of protein–protein interactions. Their ubiquitous presence in signaling networks has positioned them as targets for small‐molecule therapeutics. This review provides a structural introduction to these protein families.

Towards Integration of Biological and Physiological Functions at Multiple Levels
Frontiers in Physiology, 2010 An aim of systems physiology today can be stated as to establish logical and quantitative bridges between phenomenological attributes of physiological entities such as cells and organs and physical attributes of biological entities, i.e., biological ...

Responses of substantia gelatinosa neurons to putative neurotransmitters in an in vitro preparation of the adult rat spinal cord [PDF]
, 1983 Extracellular recordings were performed from neurons of the substantia gelatinosa (SG) in an in vitro preparation obtained from the spinal cord of adult rats. About 40% of neurons were spontaneously active.
