Cells, 2019 The aim of this study was to compare the acute effects of thrombin and brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) on spontaneous miniature endplate potentials (MEPPs) and multiquantal evoked endplate potentials (EPPs) in mouse neuromuscular junctions (NMJs)

Stochastic Turing pattern formation in a model with active and passive transport [PDF]
arXiv, 2020 We investigate Turing pattern formation in a stochastic and spatially discretized version of a reaction diffusion advection (RDA) equation, which was previously introduced to model synaptogenesis in \textit{C. elegans}. The model describes the interactions between a passively diffusing molecular species and an advecting species that switches between ...

Psilocybin as a novel treatment for chronic pain
British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.Abstract Psychedelic drugs are under active consideration for clinical use and have generated significant interest for their potential as anti‐nociceptive treatments for chronic pain, and for addressing conditions like depression, frequently co‐morbid with pain.

Equilibrium Blocking Model of Isometric Tension [PDF]
arXiv, 2009 Calcium activation of striated muscle is known to exhibit a strongly cooperative dependency on calcium. Because the calcium receptor protein, troponin (Tn) is known to bind calcium non-cooperatively and has yet to be linked to a cooperative change in the myosin-blocking protein, tropomyosin (Tm), we describe a model in which cooperativity is ...

Role of the RAB27/SYTL Axis in Tumor Microenvironment Construction
Cancer Science, EarlyView.This review focuses on the role of the RAB27/SYTL axis in various cancer types associated with tumor microenvironment modifications. The importance of this pathway and the potential therapeutic strategies targeting vesicle production for the treatment of cancer are also discussed.

Early Origins of Asthma and Allergies: Clues From Studies in China
Clinical &Experimental Allergy, EarlyView.The environment we live in harbours both risk and protective factors for asthma and allergies. This is particularly relevant in China, where unique environmental and cultural factors shape disease development. The interplay between these environmental factors, airway immunity, and gut microbiome shapes the susceptibility to asthma and allergies ...

Frontiers in Molecular Neuroscience, 2017 Synapses that are overproduced during histogenesis in the nervous system are eventually lost and connectivity is refined. Membrane receptor signaling leads to activity-dependent mutual influence and competition between axons directly or with the ...

Exercise Delays Brain Ageing Through Muscle‐Brain Crosstalk
Cell Proliferation, EarlyView.This graphical abstract illustrates the reciprocal crosstalk between the brain and peripheral organs, highlighting the profound impact of exercise on brain health through systemic interactions. It underscores how exercise influences the brain via signals from various organs and, conversely, how the brain modulates functions of peripheral organs.
