Potential of Ginkgo biloba Extract to Intervene in Chronic Inflammation‐Related Diseases

Phytotherapy Research, EarlyView.
Chronic inflammation is a pathological mechanism underpinning many diseases. Ginkgo biloba extract (GBE) is well known for its anti‐inflammatory property. GBE and its active constituents have been shown to attenuate pro‐inflammatory cytokine production, suppress nuclear factor kappa B activation, restore redox homeostasis, and modulate disease‐relevant

Structural control on the shallow tremor distribution linked to seamount subduction: insights from high-resolution seismic imaging in Hyuga-nada

Earth, Planets and Space
Tectonic tremors occur around the subducting seamount of the Kyushu Palau Ridge (KPR) in Hyuga-nada, Japan. We investigate the relationship between tremor activity and structural and physical characteristics using high-resolution reflection seismic ...

Characteristics of Task-specific Tremor in String Instrument Players [PDF]

, 2014
Background: In recent studies primary bowing tremor has been described; however, tremor frequency has never been quantitatively assessed. In addition to describing phenomenological aspects of tremor we thus aimed at assessing tremor frequency.

Bilateral Hypertrophic Olivary Degeneration and Holmes Tremor without Palatal Tremor: An Unusual Association [PDF]

, 2016
Background: Lesions in the Guillain–Mollaret triangle or dentate-rubro-olivary pathway may lead to hypertrophic olivary degeneration (HOD), a secondary trans-synaptic degeneration of the inferior olivary nucleus.

A Retinomorphic Graphene Transistor Implementing Direction‐ and Velocity‐Selective Computation for In‐Sensor Image Stabilization

Small, EarlyView.
A multi‐gated ion‐gel graphene transistor architecture emulates spatiotemporal dendritic filtering inspired by biological direction‐selective retinal circuits. Leveraging distributed resistance‐capacitive ionic relaxation delays under combined excitation‐inhibition pulse routines, the solid‐state device exhibits programmable direction‐selective index ...

Transplantation of Human Neural Progenitor Cells Reveals Structural and Functional Improvements in the Spastic Han-Wistar Rat Model of Ataxia

Cell Transplantation, 2017
The use of regenerative medicine to treat nervous system disorders like ataxia has been proposed to either replace or support degenerating neurons. In this study, we assessed the ability of human neural progenitor cells (hNPCs) to repair and restore the ...
