Neuronal energy consumption: biophysics, efficiency and evolution [PDF]
Electrical and chemical signaling within and between neurons consumes energy. Recent studies have sought to refine our understanding of the processes that consume energy and their relationship to information processing by coupling experiments with ...

A method to detect perchlorate ions and certify safe drinking water by constructing a fluorescence‐based logic gate considering the binding of a hemicyanine dye with β‐CD is presented. Perchlorate ions (ClO4−) are prevalent contaminants in the surface, and drinking water that disrupt thyroid function by competitively inhibiting the sodium‐iodide ...

ABSTRACT Many ant species show dramatic shifts in behaviour when infected with parasites, but the molecular basis of these behavioural changes is not well understood. An example is the wood ant, Formica aserva, which serves as an intermediate host for the lancet liver fluke, Dicrocoelium dendriticum.

Prenatal Diagnosis of Bartter Syndrome: Lessons From a Complex Diagnostic Procedure
ABSTRACT Bartter syndrome is an idiopathic condition that may manifest antenatally, characterized by a spectrum of symptoms including maternal polyhydramnios, prematurity, polyuria, hypercalciuria, nephrocalcinosis, normomagnesemia, vomiting, growth retardation, and elevated renal synthesis and urinary excretion of prostaglandins.

A theoretical approach for the electrochemical characterization of ciliary epithelium [PDF]
The ciliary epithelium (CE) is the primary site of aqueous humor (AH) production, which results from the combined action of ultrafiltration and ionic secretion.

Genomic and non-genomic effects of a new sodium-sensing network in renal and lung epithelia [PDF]
Sodium and water homeostasis is crucial for cell function, survival and health of the individual. The kidney is responsible for sodium regulation in the body, balancing sodium secretion and reabsorption, and thereby also regulating the blood pressure,

Genomics‐assisted breeding for designing salinity‐smart future crops
This review explores fast‐forward genomics‐assisted breeding tools to fast‐track the designing of salinity‐smart crops. Integration of various breeding tools can enhance salinity tolerance, ensuring sustainable agriculture and global food security. Summary Climate change induces many abiotic stresses, including soil salinity, significantly challenging ...

Molecular Dynamics Simulations of a Putative Novel Mechanism for UCP1‐Assisted FA Anion Transport
ABSTRACT Background Mitochondrial energy can be stored as ATP or released as heat by uncoupling protein 1 (UCP1) during non‐shivering thermogenesis in brown adipose tissue. UCP1, located in the inner mitochondrial membrane, reduces the proton gradient in the presence of long‐chain fatty acids (FA).

Stronger inflammatory/cytotoxic T cell response in women identified by microarray analysis [PDF]
Women develop chronic inflammatory autoimmune diseases like lupus more often than men. The mechanisms causing the increased susceptibility are incompletely understood, although estrogen is believed to contribute.

Long-Term Estrogen Receptor Beta Agonist Treatment Modifies the Hippocampal Transcriptome in Middle-Aged Ovariectomized Rats. [PDF]
Estradiol (E2) robustly activates transcription of a broad array of genes in the hippocampal formation of middle-aged ovariectomized rats via estrogen receptors (ERalpha, ERbeta, and G protein-coupled ER).
