the feasibility, risks, and postoperative outcomes of phacoemulsification with posterior chamber intraocular lens (PC IOL) implantation in cases of white cataract with the use of trypan blue as an adjunct for performing continuous curvilinear capsulorhexis (CCC) in the absence of a red reflex.Dr....
Tail-flick Test The tail-flick reflex was evoked by a heat stimulus applied via an infrared light source at the underside of the tail in unrestrained mice kept in Plexiglas enclosures (Tappe-Theodor et al, 2007; see Supplementary Methods for details). Statistical Analysis Statistical analyses ...
Dendritic spines are postsynaptic domains that shape structural and functional properties of neurons. Upon neuronal activity, Ca2+ transients trigger signaling cascades that determine the plastic remodeling of dendritic spines, which modulate learning an
SPATA5L1 mRNA has been detected (albeit at low levels) in both neurons and glia, both during embryonic and adult stages of human brain development (Figure 4A). We confirmed this at the protein level in rat dissociated hippocampal cultures, identifying Spata5l1 immunoreactivity within neurons, ...

animals underwent the same surgical procedures but no weight drop injury was performed. These rats were housed in a temperature- and humidity-controlled room with a 12 h light/dark cycle. In the first week following SCI, the bladder was emptied manually until the voiding reflex was recovered; ...
Tags: dog opening door, nudging, opposition reflex, targeting Barnum and I have started training on opening my bathroom door from the outside. This can later be applied to several other doors in the house. The difference between this task and others I’ve written about is that in this ...
I spend a lot of time reading about dementia (both parents were sufferers) and so anything that makes my brain’s life ‘easier’ is a red flag to me. This is a great post – and one I shall be forwarding to my son! David CainFebruary 23, 2023 at 9:21 am ...
In Drosophila, acute exposure of adult flies to ethanol vapor leads to a sedation response, which is character- ized by loss of postural control and righting reflex18,19. To determine the ethanol sedation sensitivity of our Atg16 mutants, we counted the number of non-sedated versus sedated ...
Obesity imposes a global health threat and calls for safe and effective therapeutic options. Here, we found that protein-rich diet significantly reduced body fat storage in fruit flies, which was largely attributed to dietary cysteine intake. Mechanistic
