Image analysis for evaluating mechanical damages in soybean seeds
Mechanical damage is one of the most important factors in the soybean seeds quality decrease. This study aimed at evaluating the influence of impact pressure and seed moisture content, as well as the applicability of image analysis, on mechanical damages

Physiological normoxia and chondrogenic potential of chondrocytes [PDF]
Cartilage is poorly vascularised with a limited capacity for repair following damage. The poor vascularisation results in cartilage tissue having a low normoxic value. This study examined and compared the effects of physiological cartilage normoxia (2% O2), hypoxia (0.2% O2), and hyperoxia (21% O2) on human articular chondrocytes (hAC) during similar ...

Embodied stress: The physiological resonance of psychosocial stress [PDF]
Psychosocial stress is a ubiquitous phenomenon in our society. While acute stress responses are necessary and adaptive, excessive activation of neurobiological stress systems can predispose an individual to far-reaching adverse health outcomes. Living in

Synaptic Noise Facilitates the Emergence of Self-Organized Criticality in the Caenorhabditis elegans Neuronal Network [PDF]
Avalanches with power-law distributed size parameters have been observed in neuronal networks. This observation might be a manifestation of the self-organized criticality (SOC).

Transient receptor potential vanilloid (TRPV) channels: Basal properties and physiological potential
Transient receptor potential vanilloid (TRPV) channels are TRP homologs and have been classified into six subfamilies. They are unique mediators of sensory signals with multiple physiological effects and are potential targets for developing new therapies targeting human diseases.
