Regulation of PVT‐CeA Circuit in Deoxynivalenol‐Induced Anorexia and Aversive‐Like Emotions

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The study investigates Deoxynivalenol (DON) effects on feeding and emotions, focusing on the central amygdala (CeA). Acute DON exposure reduces food intake and alters behavior, linked to CeAGABA neuron activity and PVT‐CeA connectivity. Manipulating CeAGABA neurons and using SCN10A antagonist A‐803467 alleviate DON's effects, offering potential ...

Come together over me: Cells that form the dermatocranium and chondrocranium in mice

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView., 2023
Abstract Most bone develops either by intramembranous ossification where bone forms within a soft connective tissue, or by endochondral ossification by way of a cartilage anlagen or model. Bones of the skull can form endochondrally or intramembranously or represent a combination of the two types of ossification.

Photo‐Biomodulation of the Hippocampus Using Near‐Infrared Laser to Enhance Cognitive Function in Mice

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Here a transcranial photo‐biomodulation approach is developed using near‐infrared (NIR) laser on hippocampus of mice, revealing significant improvements in learning and memory ability of mice under normal and disease conditions. The improvement results from the high‐density cell‐induced NIR local energy deposition, neuronal activation, and axonogenesis

High Radiation Resistance in the Binary W‐Ta System Through Small V Additions: A New Paradigm for Nuclear Fusion Materials

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Refractory high‐entropy alloys exhibit superior radiation tolerance, but face fabrication challenges due to complex compositions. It is demonstrated that reducing the number of alloying elements does not compromise radiation resistance in a novel W‐Ta‐V highly‐concentrated refractory alloy.

Rough and Tough: How Particle Surface Roughness Affects Liquid Marble Formation and Stability

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study investigates the influence of particle surface roughness on the formation and stability of liquid marbles using well‐defined colloidal supraparticles as model systems. Increasing surface roughness enhances the interfacial contact angle, improves mechanical stability by increasing deformation resistance upon impact, and enables liquid marble ...

Functional Divergence of Plant‐Derived Thaumatin‐Like Protein Genes in Two Closely Related Whitefly Species

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Two closely related whitefly species, Trialeurodes vaporariorum and Bemisia tabaci, are found to each possess a plant‐derived TLP gene, but with entirely different functions. This finding of functional divergence challenges the notion that HGT genes maintain similar functions across species and shows that they can follow unique evolutionary paths that ...
