To test this hypothesis, we used ex vivo and in vivo approaches in combination with optogenetics to precisely control pyramidal cell firing in the mouse barrel cortex while monitoring the resulting ...

Cell growth usually refers to cell proliferation, the increase in cell numbers that occurs through repeated cell division. Cell growth can also refer to the enlargement of cell volume, which can ...

RALEIGH, N.C. (WNCN) — Cell phone use in school could look different next year. Right now, there’s no state law in North Carolina governing cell phone use in school, but lawmakers are looking to ...

In contrast, superficial pyramidal neurons maintain a more stable ... the researchers used chemogenetics to temporarily “silence” specific cell types. “We found that we could rotate the ...

It feels like the Splinter Cell remake has been on its way for a while now, which isn't helped by the fact it's been over three years since we heard anything official about the game. From what we ...

The activities at the Department of Microbiology, Tumor and Cell Biology (MTC) are focused on research and teaching in the subjects of infection biology, cell and tumor biology and immunology. The ...

Output is saved as pyramidal, tiled OME-TIFF. Note that Ashlar requires unstitched individual "tile" images as input, so it is not suitable for microscopes or slide scanners that only provide ...

Neurons in the brain have a uniquely polarized structure consisting of multiple dendrites and a single axon generated from a cell body. Interestingly, intracellular mitochondria also show strikingly ...

Here we use conditional tagging of FMRP and CLIP (FMRP cTag CLIP) to examine FMRP mRNA targets in hippocampal CA1 pyramidal neurons, a critical cell type for learning and memory relevant to FXS ...

These findings suggest that selective participation in iCC connections by pyramidal cell subtypes lead to directional connectivity between M2 and other cortical areas. Based on these findings, we ...
