Wnt/β-catenin signaling contributes to articular cartilage homeostasis through lubricin induction in the superficial zone

open access: yesArthritis Research & Therapy, 2019
Background Both loss- and gain-of-function of Wnt/β-catenin signaling in chondrocytes result in exacerbation of osteoarthritis (OA). Here, we examined the activity and roles of Wnt/β-catenin signaling in the superficial zone (SFZ) of articular cartilage.

Nondeterministic nature of sensorineural outcomes following noise trauma

open access: yesBiology Open, 2021
Over 1.1 billion individuals are at risk for noise induced hearing loss yet there is no accepted therapy. A long history of research has demonstrated that excessive noise exposure will kill outer hair cells (OHCs).

Pre-stimulus influences on auditory perception arising from sensory representations and decision processes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The qualities of perception depend not only on the sensory inputs but also on the brain state before stimulus presentation. Although the collective evidence from neuroimaging studies for a relation between prestimulus state and perception is strong, the ...

Sensory collectives in natural systems

open access: yeseLife, 2023
Groups of animals inhabit vastly different sensory worlds, or umwelten, which shape fundamental aspects of their behaviour. Yet the sensory ecology of species is rarely incorporated into the emerging field of collective behaviour, which studies the movements, population-level behaviours, and emergent properties of animal groups.

Sensory imagery in craving: From cognitive psychology to new treatments for addiction [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Sensory imagery is a powerful tool for inducing craving because it is a key component of the cognitive system that underpins human motivation. The role of sensory imagery in motivation is explained by Elaborated Intrusion (EI) theory.

Excessive mechanical loading promotes osteoarthritis through the gremlin-1–NF-κB pathway

open access: yesNature Communications, 2019
Excessive mechanical stress promotes the development of osteoarthritis. Here Chang et al. identify gremlin-1 as a factor expressed in chondrocytes in response to mechanical stress, and contributing to osteoarthritis via activation of the NF-κB pathway.

Parasympathetic functions in children with sensory processing disorder. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The overall goal of this study was to determine if parasympathetic nervous system (PsNS) activity is a significant biomarker of sensory processing difficulties in children. Several studies have demonstrated that PsNS activity is an important regulator of

Calculation of the Coupling Coefficient in Step-Index Multimode Polymer Optical Fibers Based on the Far-Field Measurements

open access: yesFrontiers in Physics, 2022
Using the power flow equation (PFE), this article investigates mode coupling in step-index (SI) multimode (MM) polymer optical fiber (POF). This equation’s coupling coefficient was initially fine-tuned so that it could appropriately reconstruct ...
