Do humans show velocity-storage in the vertical rVOR? [PDF]

Equilibrium Research, 2008
To investigate the contribution of the vestibular velocity-storage mechanism (VSM) to the vertical rotational vestibulo-ocular reflex (rVOR) we recorded eye movements evoked by off-vertical axis rotation (OVAR) using whole-body constant-velocity pitch rotations about an earth-horizontal, interaural axis in four healthy human subjects.

Method for Predicting the Liquid-Sloshing Characteristics of a Microsatellite Propulsion System

International Journal of Aerospace Engineering, 2019
In this study, a method for establishing a prediction model for the liquid-sloshing characteristics of microsatellite propulsion systems is proposed. The ideal states of the liquid-sloshing characteristics are considered for the following three models ...

Organ‐specific redox imbalances in spinal muscular atrophy mice are partially rescued by SMN antisense oligonucleotides

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We identified a systemic, progressive loss of protein S‐glutathionylation—detected by nonreducing western blotting—alongside dysregulation of glutathione‐cycle enzymes in both neuronal and peripheral tissues of Taiwanese SMA mice. These alterations were partially rescued by SMN antisense oligonucleotide therapy, revealing persistent redox imbalance as ...

Horizontal Nystagmus as a Coupled-Integrator Network Phenotype: A Clinical–Conceptual Framework Linking Gaze Holding, Velocity Storage, and Nodulus–Uvula Supervision

Journal of Otorhinolaryngology, Hearing and Balance Medicine
Horizontal nystagmus is still commonly interpreted at the bedside through a pragmatic peripheral-versus-central dichotomy. Although this heuristic is often clinically useful, it may be misleading because distributed brainstem–cerebellar disorders can ...

Structural insights into an engineered feruloyl esterase with improved MHET degrading properties

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
A feruloyl esterase was engineered to mimic key features of MHETase, enhancing the degradation of PET oligomers. Structural and computational analysis reveal how a point mutation stabilizes the active site and reshapes the binding cleft, expading substrate scope.

Sperm morphology, ultrastructure, and motility in pikeperch Sander lucioperca (Percidae, Teleostei) associated with various activation media

Czech Journal of Animal Science, 2014
Spermatozoa morphology, ultrastructure, and spermatozoa motility traits were studied in pikeperch (Sander lucioperca) after activation in various media (AM 1 - 45mM NaCl, 5mM KCl, 20mM Tris, pH 8.5; AM 2 - 100mM sucrose, 20mM Tris, pH 8.5; AM 3 - 100mM ...

IMPDH inhibition enhances cytarabine efficacy in SAMHD1‐expressing leukaemia cells via guanine nucleotide depletion

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Cytarabine is a key therapy for acute myeloid leukaemia (AML), but its efficacy is limited by the dNTPase SAMHD1, which hydrolyses its active metabolite. Screening nucleotide biosynthesis inhibitors revealed that IMPDH inhibitors selectively sensitise SAMHD1‐proficient AML cells to cytarabine.

Contralesional horizontal vHIT hypergain in chronic unilateral Ménière disease: The fast-domain expression of residual slow-domain asymmetry

Acta Oto-Laryngologica Case Reports
The objective is to describe contralesional horizontal video head impulse test (vHIT) hypergain in chronic unilateral Ménière disease and relate it to low-frequency rotational asymmetry.
