Neurotransmitters are the words our brain cells use to communicate with one another. For years, researchers relied on tools that provided limited temporal and spatial resolution to track changes in ...

There is a well-known saying that you cannot step into the same river twice. The events that make up our lives are extracted from complex and dynamic experiences, with pieces that never perfectly ...

Vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) phenotype switch from contractile to proliferative phenotype is a pathological hallmark in various cardiovascular diseases. Recently, a subset of long noncoding ...

Article subjects are automatically applied from the ACS Subject Taxonomy and describe the scientific concepts and themes of the article. Single-target quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) is ...

G-protein-coupled-receptor (GPCR) signaling is exquisitely controlled to achieve spatial and temporal specificity. The endogenous protein kinase inhibitor peptide (PKI) confines the spatial and ...

The spectral fingerprint hypothesis, which posits that different frequencies of oscillations underlie different cognitive operations, provides one account for how interactions between brain regions ...

Is the human mind/brain composed of a set of highly specialized components, each carrying out a specific aspect of human cognition, or is it more of a general-purpose device, in which each component ...

T cells recognize virus-infected cells and tumor cells by detecting the presence of disease-specific peptide–major histocompatibility complexes (pMHC) with their clone-specific T-cell receptor. Both ...
