Using Enterprise Models to Explain and Discuss Autopoiesis and Homeostasis in Socio-technical Systems

The article links two seemingly different fundamental theoretical concepts of autopoiesis and homeostasis and tries to apply them to the realm of socio-technical systems with the use of the Fractal Enterprise Model (FEM). Autopoiesis is the property of a s ...

Cortical circuits for transforming whisker sensation into goal-directed licking

Carl Petersen, Sylvain Crochet, Vahid Esmaeili, Georgios Foustoukos, Keita Tamura, Anastasiia Oryshchuk

Animals can learn to use sensory stimuli to generate motor actions in order to obtain rewards. However, the precise neuronal circuits driving learning and execution of a specific goal-directed sensory-to-motor transformation remain to be elucidated. Here, ...

Astrocyte–neuron co-culture on microchips based on the model of SOD mutation to mimic ALS

Philippe Renaud, Pierre Magistretti, Patrick Aebischer, Sylvain Eric Lengacher, Anja Kunze, Elisabeth Anne Dirren

Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is the most common motor neuron disease. ALS is believed to be a non-cell autonomous condition, as other cell types, including astrocytes, have been implicated in disease pathogenesis. Hence, to facilitate the developmen ...

In vivo real-time metabolic studies in mice at physiological concentrations following 1-13C lactate injection

Rolf Gruetter, Mor-Miri Mishkovsky, Tian Cheng, Arnaud Comment, Yuhei Takado

The real-time metabolic transformation of lactate in the mouse head was monitored following the injection of hyperpolarized 1-13C lactate at physiological doses. The results were compared with metabolic studies performed with hyperpolarized 1-13C pyruvate ...
