The basis for selective death of specific neuronal populations in neurodegenerative
diseases remains unclear. Parkinson's disease (PD) is a synucleinopathy characterized by a …

The thermoreversible gelation of methylcellulose in aqueous solution has been studied by
static and dynamic light scattering (DLS), small-angle neutron scattering (SANS), and …

Hyperchaos has been observed, for the first time, from a real physical system: a very simple
fourth-order electrical circuit. It is autonomous and reciprocal and has only one nonlinear …

The mesencephalic dopaminergic (mDA) cell system is composed of two major groups of
projecting cells in the substantia nigra (SN) (A9 neurons) and the ventral tegmental area (VTA) …

This study aimed to generate a mouse model of acquired glomerular sclerosis. A model
system that allows induction of podocyte injury in a manner in which onset and severity can be …

We describe a strategy for developing hydrophilic chemical cocktails for tissue delipidation,
decoloring, refractive index (RI) matching, and decalcification, based on comprehensive …

It is generally accepted that the direct connection from the motor cortex to spinal motor neurons
is responsible for dexterous hand movements in primates 1 , 2 , 3 . However, the role of …

The effects of autonomic innervation of tumors on tumor growth remain unclear. Here we
developed a series of genetic techniques to manipulate autonomic innervation in a tumor- and …

OBJECTIVE—Chronic exposure to fatty acids causes β-cell failure, often referred to as
lipotoxicity. We investigated its mechanisms, focusing on contribution of SREBP-1c, a key …

Within glomeruli, the initial sites of synaptic integration in the olfactory pathway, olfactory
sensory axons terminate on dendrites of projection and juxtaglomerular (JG) neurons. JG cells …
