Energy integration describes sound-intensity coding in an insect auditory system [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
We investigate the transduction of sound stimuli into neural responses and focus on locust auditory receptor cells. As in other mechanosensory model systems, these neurons integrate acoustic inputs over a fairly broad frequency range.

Microstructure of the pure-tone threshold [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 1975
A painstaking determination of pure-tone threshold versus frequency in normal ears using a headphone reveals a remarkably consistent microstructure of hills and valleys. A large number of determinations of the frequency at the peak of each of the threshold hills reveals a standard deviation of less than 10 Hz for stimulus frequencies from 200 to 5000 ...

Downregulation of sST2, a decoy receptor for interleukin‐33, enhances subcutaneous tumor growth in murine pancreatic cancer cells

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Subcutaneous implantation of murine Panc02 pancreatic cancer cells depleted of sST2, a soluble decoy receptor for the proinflammatory interleukin‐33 (IL‐33), leads to a decreased number of GLUT4‐positive cancer‐associated adipocytes, reduced levels of the anti‐inflammatory molecule adiponectin, increased phosphorylation of IκBα, elevated Cxcl3 ...

Spectral and temporal gating mechanisms enhance the clutter rejection in the echolocating bat, Rhinolophus rouxi [PDF]

open access: yes, 1991
Doppler shift compensation behaviour in horseshoe bats, Rhinolophus rouxi, was used to test the interference of pure tones and narrow band noise with compensation performance.

Report on the 2nd MObility for Vesicle research in Europe (MOVE) symposium—2024

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
The 2nd MObility for Vesicle research in Europe (MOVE) Symposium in Belgrade brought over 280 attendees from 28 countries to advance extracellular vesicle (EV) research. Featuring keynotes, presentations, and industry sessions, it covered EV biogenesis, biomarkers, therapies, and manufacturing.

Aircraft noise synthesis system: Version 4 user instructions [PDF]

open access: yes
A modified version of the Aircraft Noise Synthesis System with improved directivity and tonal content modeling has been developed. The synthesis system is used to provide test stimuli for studies of community annoyance to aircraft flyover noise.

Electrical pulse stimulation reflecting the episodic nature of real‐life exercise modulates metabolic and secretory profile of primary human myotubes

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Here, we introduced an intermittent electrical stimulation protocol mimicking the episodic nature of real‐life exercise in vitro by alternating low‐ and high‐frequency stimulation. In comparison with widely used continuous stimulation, it enhanced the rate of glucose and fatty acid oxidation, but not the myokine release.

Acoustic performance of inlet multiple-pure-tone suppressors installed on NASA quiet engine C [PDF]

open access: yes
The length of multiple-pure-tone (MPT) treatment required to reasonably suppress the MPT's produced by a supersonic tip speed fan was defined. Other suppression, broadband, and blade passing frequency, which might be accomplished were also determined ...

Why do bell plates ring? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
Bell plates are polygonal plates which, when held in the hand and struck with a beater, produce an initial transient followed by a sustained, pure tone. The presence of the sustained tone depends sensitively on the shape.

Modulation of auditory responses by modality-specific attention in rat primary auditory cortex [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
How does attention modulate sensory representations? In order to probe the underlying neural mechanisms, we established a simple rodent model of modality-specific attention.
