Background: In this work, we propose to catch the complexity of the membrane potential's dynamic of a motoneuron between its spikes, taking into account the spikes from other neurons around. Our approach relies on two types of data: extracellular recordings of multiple spikes trains and intracellular recordings of the membrane potential of a central neuron.
New Method: We provide a unified framework and a complete pipeline to analyze neuronal activity from data extraction to statistical inference. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first time that a Hawkes-diffusion model is investigated on such complex data. The first step of the proposed procedure is to select a subnetwork of neurons impacting the central neuron using a multivariate Hawkes process. Then we infer a jump-diffusion dynamic in which jumps are driven from a Hawkes process, the occurrences of which correspond to the spike trains of the aforementioned subset of neurons that interact with the central neuron.
Results: From the Hawkes estimation step we recover a small connectivity graph which contains the central neuron, and we show that taking into account this information improves the inference of membrane potential through the proposed jump-diffusion model. A goodness of fit test is applied to validate the relevance of the Hawkes model in such context.
Comparison With Existing Methods: We compare an empirical inference method and two sparse estimation procedures based on the Hawkes assumption for the reconstruction of the connectivity graph using the spike-trains. Then, the Hawkes-diffusion model is competed with the simple diffusion in terms of best fit to describe the behavior of the membrane potential of a central neuron surrounded by a network.
Conclusions: The present method takes advantage of both spike trains and membrane potential to understand the behavior of a fixed neuron. The entire code has been developed and is freely available on GitHub.

Recent studies have suggested that sVEGFR3 is involved in cardiac diseases by regulating lymphangiogenesis; however, results are inconsistent. The aim of this study was to investigate the function and mechanism of sVEGFR3 in myocardial ischemia/reperfusion injury (MI/RI). sVEGFR3 effects were evaluated in vivo in mice subjected to MI/RI, and in vitro using HL-1 cells exposed to oxygen-glucose deprivation/reperfusion.

Clear cell renal cell carcinoma is a prevalent urological malignancy, imposing substantial burdens on both patients and society. In our study, we used bioinformatics methods to select four putative target genes associated with EMT and prognosis and developed a nomogram model which could accurately predicting 5-year patient survival rates. We further analyzed proteome and single-cell data and selected PLCG2 and TMEM38A for the following experiments.

The high performance of two-dimensional (2D) channel membranes is generally achieved by preparing ultrathin or forming short channels with less tortuous transport through self-assembly of small flakes, demonstrating potential for highly efficient water desalination and purification, gas and ion separation, and organic solvent waste treatment. Here, we report the construction of vertical channels in graphene oxide (GO) membrane based on a substrate template with asymmetric pores. The membranes achieved water permeance of 2647 L m h bar while still maintaining an ultrahigh rejection rate of 99.

Constitutive mitochondrial dynamics ensure quality control and metabolic fitness of cells, and their dysregulation has been implicated in various human diseases. The large GTPase Dynamin-related protein 1 (Drp1) is intimately involved in mediating constitutive mitochondrial fission and has been implicated in mitochondrial cell death pathways. During ferroptosis, a recently identified type of regulated necrosis driven by excessive lipid peroxidation, mitochondrial fragmentation has been observed.

Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is linked to ion channel dysfunction, including chloride voltage-gated channel-4 (CLCN4). We generated Clcn4 knockout (KO) mice by deleting exon 5 of chromosome 7 in the C57BL/6 mice. Clcn4 KO exhibited reduced social interaction and increased repetitive behaviors assessed using three-chamber and marble burying tests.
