Giving subjects the eye and showing them the finger: socio-biological cues and saccade generation in the anti-saccade task. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Pointing with the eyes or the finger occurs frequently in social interaction to indicate direction of attention and one's intentions. Research with a voluntary saccade task (where saccade direction is instructed by the colour of a fixation point ...

Absence seizures: Update on signaling mechanisms and networks

open access: yesEpilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Absence seizures (AS) are a hallmark of genetic generalized epilepsies (GGE), characterized by brief episodes of impaired consciousness accompanied by electroencephalographic spike‐and‐wave discharges (SWDs). Traditionally attributed to cortico‐thalamo‐cortical (CTC) dysrhythmia, emerging evidence suggests a more intricate pathophysiological ...

Gaze-dependent topography in human posterior parietal cortex. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The brain must convert retinal coordinates into those required for directing an effector. One prominent theory holds that, through a combination of visual and motor/proprioceptive information, head-/body-centered representations are computed within the ...

Pro-saccades and anti-saccades to onset and offset targets

open access: yesVision Research, 2005
Pro- and anti-saccades made to either onset or offset targets were examined to determine which of (1) changes in luminance or (2) the appearance of new peripheral objects, is more important in the reflexive generation of pro-saccades. In two experiments, pro-saccades had faster reaction times than did anti-saccades, but the difference was much greater ...

Exploring the Neuroprotective Role of Selenium: Implications and Perspectives for Central Nervous System Disorders

open access: yesExploration, EarlyView.
Selenium (Se) is a crucial element in selenoproteins, key biomolecules for physiological function in vivo. Central nervous system can express all 25 kinds of selenoproteins, which protect neurons by reducing oxidative stress and inflammatory response. Neuroprotection is being investigated through the biological study of Se.

A Comprehensive Review of Starch: Structure, Properties, Chemical Modification, and Application in Food Preservation

open access: yesFood Frontiers, EarlyView.
The negative effects of widely used polyethylene‐plastic packaging on environment and consumers' health along with the advantages of biopolymers lead to attention on active and degradable packaging as safe alternatives. Xie et al. thoroughly review starch, focusing on its chemical modification and application in constructing active and degradable ...
