Adaptive Trade-off between Sensitivity and Spatial Resolution and its Implications for Motion Discrimination and Segregation
The success of species depends critically on their ability to process and extract sensory information under a wide range of ecological conditions. For example, on a normal day, the luminance impinging on the retina varies within a dynamic range of 220 dB. ...
2021Amplified engagement of prefrontal cortex during control of voluntary action in Tourette syndrome
Sophie Jacqueline Andrée Betka
Tourette syndrome is characterized by 'unvoluntary' tics, which are compulsive, yet often temporarily suppressible. The inferior frontal gyms is implicated in motor control, including inhibition of pre-potent actions through influences on downstream subcor ...
OXFORD UNIV PRESS2020SIRT2 inhibition achieves neuroprotection by decreasing sterol biosynthesis
Huntington's disease (HD), an incurable neurodegenerative disorder, has a complex pathogenesis including protein aggregation and the dysregulation of neuronal transcription and metabolism. Here, we demonstrate that inhibition of sirtuin 2 (SIRT2) achieves ...
National Academy of Sciences2010Generation of segment polarity in the paraxial mesoderm of the zebrafish through a T-box-dependent inductive event
Andrew Charles Oates, Laurel Ann Rohde
The first morphological sign of vertebrate postcranial body segmentation is the sequential production from posterior paraxial mesoderm of blocks of cells termed somites. Each of these embryonic structures is polarized along the anterior/posterior axis, a s ...
