摘要:The Transient Receptor Potential Vanilloid 1 (TRPV1) ion channel is expressed in primary nociceptive afferents, which participate in processes such as pain and inflammation. Considerable efforts have been directed toward finding inhibitors of TRPV1 and understanding the molecular details of their interactions with this channel. alpha- humulene (AH) is a sesquiterpene derived from plants such as hops and other members of Cannabaceae family, with a long history of popular use as an analgesic and...

摘要:Lipid nanoparticles (LNP) represent a versatile platform for improving delivery of therapeutic nucleic acids. Yet, delivery to the myocardium remains a formidable challenge due to local barriers in the heart and systemic hindrances. In particular, plasma apolipoprotein E (apoE) directs LNP to the liver, limiting potential extrahepatic delivery. Here, we report a cardiotropic LNP (cLNP), which within 30 min post-intravenous injection accumulates in the heart of ApoE knockout (Apoe-/-) mice. The...

摘要:The latest report of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change showed that upcoming decades are likely to be accompanied with an increase in climate impacts in urban areas, thereby stressing the need for empowering cities to help them address the challenges ahead by closing the urban adaptation gap. The lock-in systems in which cities are often trapped create resistance to change and leads to missed opportunities to cocreate better futures. Putting nature at the center of urban adaptation ...

摘要:Resolving the relationship between species' traits and their relative abundance is a central challenge in ecology. Current hypotheses assume relative abundances either result from or are independent of traits. However, despite some success, these hypotheses do not integrate the feedback interactions between traits and abundances to predictions of community structure such as relative abundance distributions and trait-abundance relationships. Here, we study how plasticity in resource-use traits ...

摘要:Injunctive norms are universal: Every culture has rules that specify what actions are forbidden, obligatory, or permitted. Where do all of these norms come from? In this paper, we identify a mechanism of cultural transmission that can explain the emergence of injunctive norms. In particular, we develop an iterated learning account that shows how weak biases in pedagogy and inference can drive norm emergence through cultural transmission. Using transmission chain studies, we confirm the core pr...

摘要:Temporally constrained microvertebrate bone beds are powerful tools for understanding continent-scale biotic change. Such sites are rare globally in nonmarine settings during the 12 million years (Ma) preceding the end-Triassic extinction (ETE; similar to 201.5 Ma), obscuring patterns of faunal change across this interval. A vertebrate assemblage from Arizona, USA, provides unique insights into community composition and ecology prior to the ETE. PFV 393 is a macro- and microvertebrate bone bed...

摘要:Optical switches and bifurcation rely on the nonlinear response of materials. Here, we demonstrate linear temporal bifurcation responses in a passive multimode microresonator, with strongly coupled chaotic and whispering gallery modes (WGMs). In micro-disks, the chaotic modes exhibit broadband transfer within the deformed cavities, but their transient response is less explored and yields a random output of the analog signal distributed uniformly from 0 to 1. Here, we build chaotic states by pe...

摘要:While it is widely accepted that somatic variants that activate the PI3K-mTOR pathway are a major cause of drug-resistant focal epilepsy, typically associated with focal cortical dysplasia (FCD) type 2, understanding the mechanism of epileptogenesis requires identifying genotype-associated changes at the single-cell level, which is technically challenging with existing methods. Here, we performed single-nucleus RNA-sequencing (snRNA-seq) of 18 FCD type 2 samples removed surgically for treatmen...
