摘要:Maintaining the structure of cardiac membranes and membrane organelles is essential for heart function. A critical cardiac membrane organelle is the transverse tubule system (called the t - tubule system) which is an invagination of the surface membrane. unique structural characteristic of the cardiac muscle t - tubule system is the extension of the extracellular matrix (ECM) from the surface membrane into the t - tubule lumen. However, the importance of the ECM extending into the cardiac t - ...

摘要:Private donors contributed more than $350 million to local election officials to support the administration of the 2020 election. Supporters argue these grants were neutral and necessary to maintain normal election operations during the pandemic, while critics worry these grants mostly went to Democratic strongholds and tilted election outcomes. How much did these grants shape the 2020 presidential election? To answer this question, we collect administrative data on private election administra...

摘要:IL - 22 plays a critical role in defending against mucosal infections, but how IL - 22 production is regulated is incompletely understood. Here, we show that mice lacking IL - 33 or its receptor ST2 (IL - 1RL1) were more resistant to Streptococcus pneumoniae lung infection than wild - type animals and that single - nucleotide polymorphisms in IL33 and IL1RL1 were associated with pneumococcal pneumonia in humans. The effect of IL - 33 on S. pneumoniae infection was mediated by negative regulati...

摘要:The mammalian brain implements sophisticated sensory processing algorithms along multilayered (deep) neural networks. Strategies that insects use to meet similar computational demands, while relying on smaller nervous systems with shallow architectures, remain elusive. Using Drosophila as a model, we uncover the algorithmic role of odor preprocessing by a shallow network of compartmentalized olfactory receptor neurons. Each compartment operates as a ratiometric unit for specific odor-mixtures....

摘要:Limiting the rise in global temperature to 1.5 degrees C will rely, in part, on technologies to remove CO2 from the atmosphere. However, many carbon dioxide removal (CDR) technologies are in the early stages of development, and there is limited data to inform predictions of their future adoption. Here, we present an approach to model adoption of early-stage technologies such as CDR and apply it to direct air carbon capture and storage (DACCS). Our approach combines empirical data on historical...

摘要:Individual survival and evolutionary selection require biological organisms to maximize reward. Economic choice theories define the necessary and sufficient conditions, and neuronal signals of decision variables provide mechanistic explanations. Reinforcement learning (RL) formalisms use predictions, actions, and policies to maximize reward. Midbrain dopamine neurons code reward prediction errors (RPE) of subjective reward value suitable for RL. Electrical and optogenetic self - stimulation ex...

摘要:Insulin is a central autoantigen in the pathogenesis of T1D, and thymic epithelial cell expression of insulin under the control of the Autoimmune Regulator ( Aire ) is thought to be a key component of maintaining tolerance to insulin. In spite of this general working model, direct detection of this thymic selection on insulinspecific T cells has been somewhat elusive. Here, we used a combination of highly sensitive T cell receptor transgenic models for detecting thymic selection and sorting an...

摘要:Evolution equations with convolution -type integral operators have a history of study, yet a gap exists in the literature regarding the link between certain convolution kernels and new models, including delayed and fractional differential equations. We demonstrate, starting from the logistic model structure, that classical, delayed, and fractional models are special cases of a framework using a gamma Mittag-Leffler memory kernel. We discuss and classify different types of this general kernel, ...

摘要:Posttranslational modifications regulate the properties and abundance of synaptic alpha- amino - 3 - hydroxy - 5 - methyl - 4 - isoxazolepropionic acid (AMPA) receptors that mediate fast excitatory synaptic transmission and synaptic plasticity in the central nervous system. During long - term depression (LTD), protein tyrosine phosphatases (PTPs) dephosphorylate tyrosine residues in the C - terminal tail of AMPA receptor GluA2 subunit, which is essential for GluA2 endocytosis and group I metab...
