Morphogen gradients convey essential spatial information during tissue patterning. While both concentration and timing of morphogen exposure are crucial, how cells interpret these graded inputs remains challenging to address. We employed an optogenetic system to acutely and reversibly modulate the nuclear concentration of the morphogen Dorsal (DL), homologue of NF-κB, which orchestrates dorso-ventral patterning in the embryo.

Objective: To compare the efficacy of intranasal (IN) and intramuscular (IM) administrations of azaperone (3 mg kg), midazolam (0. 3 mg kg), and ketamine (7 mg kg) combination (AMK) in pigs. Study design: Randomized clinical trial.

Perceiving and reacting to multidimensional objects creates so-called event files via feature binding. Bogon, Thomaschke, and Dreisbach provided the first evidence for the integration of the feature into such event files. However, their paradigm did not allow for differentiation between stimulus-stimulus and stimulus-response binding.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to investigate rod photopigment bleaching-driven intrinsic optical signals (IOS) in the human outer retina and its measurement repeatability based on a commercial optical coherence tomography (OCT) platform.
Methods: The optical path length of the rod photoreceptor subretinal space (SRS), that is, the distance between signal bands of rod outer segment tips and retinal pigment epithelium, was measured in 15 healthy subjects in ambient light and during a long-duration bleaching white-light exposure.
Results: On 2 identical study days (day 1 and day 2 [D1 and D2]), light stimulation resulted in a significant decrease in rod SRS by 21.

Neural activities in local circuits exhibit complex and multilevel dynamic features. Individual neurons spike irregularly, which is believed to originate from receiving balanced amounts of excitatory and inhibitory inputs, known as the . The spatial-temporal cascades of clustered neuronal spikes occur in variable sizes and durations, manifested as neural avalanches with scale-free features.
