Asymmetric tent map expansions II. Purely periodic points

Illinois Journal of Mathematics, 1994
This paper is a continuation of the first part [J. Lond. Math. Soc. 47, 542-556 (1993)] reviewed above. In the present paper the authors consider again the \(T_ \alpha\)-expansion of numbers \(x\in [0,1]\), where \(T_ \alpha\) is an asymmetric tent map \((\alpha>1)\).

Gut Microbiota‐Derived Anandamide Mediates the Therapeutic Effects of Urolithin A on Alcohol‐Induced Cognitive and Social Dysfunction via CB1R‐DRD2‐RAP1 Signaling Axis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study reveals that Urolithin A (UA) counteracts alcohol‐induced cognitive and social dysfunction (AICSD) via a gut microbiome‐dependent mechanism. UA‐enriched Bacteroids sartorii and Parabacteroids distasonis elevate anandamide (AEA), which activates the CB1R‐DRD2‐Rap1 signaling cascade to drive synaptic repair and reduce neuroinflammation ...

A Novel Function of Nonadecanoic Acid in Regulating Glucose Homeostasis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study identifies the odd‐chain fatty acid C19:0 as an endogenous ligand of GPR120 that promotes glucose homeostasis via Gαq signaling. In obesity, elevated palmitic acid suppresses endogenous C19:0 production through a miRNA–PPARα–HACL1 pathway, offering a promising direction for understanding the role of OCFAs in human health.

Promoting Treg Polarization‐Mediated Anti‐Scar and Appendage Regeneration in Wound Healing

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study develops a PLGA@LA‐BMP4‐PG bilayer scaffold to address scar formation and appendage loss in skin repair. The piezoelectric PLA layer enhances cell migration via electric fields, while GelMA delivers LA promoting Tregs polarization and BMP4 inhibiting FBs differentiation.

Gαi1/3 Is a Novel Regulatory Target for RANKL Signal Transduction and Osteoporosis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Osteoporosis, characterized by progressive bone loss and increased fracture risk, is a growing concern as the population ages. Current treatments, though advanced, remain limited, underscoring the necessity for novel therapeutic targets. Recent studies have shown that the immune system plays a key role in osteoporosis, with osteoclasts driving

A novel image encryption/decryption scheme based on integrating multiple chaotic maps

AIP Advances, 2020
In this paper, a novel framework is presented for chaotic image encryption. The proposed method is based on integrating multiple chaotic maps (e.g., logistic, tent, quadratic, cubic, and Bernoulli) to generate more robust chaotic maps in order to ...

Dynamics of skew tent maps

Dynamics of skew tent maps
This paper deals with the dynamical properties of so-called skew tent maps defined by \[ f_{a,b}(x)= \begin{cases} ax+1, &x\leq 0,\\ -bx+1, &x\geq 0,\end{cases} \tag{1} \] \((a,b)\in D:= \{(a,b)\mid a>0\), \(b>1\), \(a+b\geq ab\}\). Here the authors give the relation between \(*\)-product for a kneading sequence and renormalization.

Amyloid β Instigates Cardiac Neurotrophic Signaling Impairment, Driving Alzheimer's Associated Heart Disease

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This research identified cardiac amyloid pathology, neurotrophic factor depletion, and reduced myocardial nerve function in a transgenic model of cerebral amyloidosis (Tg2576), Aβ‐challenged cardiomyocytes, and in human AD heart tissue. These findings carry significant diagnostic and therapeutic implications, emphasizing the role of neuro‐signaling ...

Unraveling the Morphological and Functional Maturation Mechanisms Underlying Human Neural Development Using iPSCs‐Derived Neuronal Model

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Using human induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs)‐derived neuronal model, Tian and colleagues reveal that voltage‐gated calcium channels Cav1.2 and Cav1.3, and their mediated calcium ion influx, are essential for early morphogenesis of human neuronal development, while ECEL1 underlies human neuronal functional developmental maturation through CALM3 ...
