ETHNOPHARMACOLOGICAL RELEVANCE: Niuhuang Jiedu (NHJD) is a Chinese medicine prescription containing realgar (AsS), which is neurotoxic, and seven other traditional Chinese medicines (TCMs). However, whether the multiple TCMs contained in NHJD can mit...
Transcriptional enhancers act as docking stations for combinations of transcription factors and thereby regulate spatiotemporal activation of their target genes. It has been a long-standing goal in the field to decode the regulatory logic of an enhan...
The invariant development and transparent body of the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans enables complete delineation of cell lineages throughout development. Despite extensive studies of cell division, cell migration and cell fate differentiation, cell...
Xiaokewan is a typical Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) for diabetes and contains various natural chemicals, such as lignans, flavonoids, saponins, polysaccharides, and western medicine glibenclamide. In the current study, a highly efficient system...
A major challenge in cell and developmental biology is the automated identification and quantitation of cells in complex multilayered tissues. We developed CytoCensus: an easily deployed implementation of supervised machine learning that extends conv...
BACKGROUND: The evaluation of histological tissue samples plays a crucial role in deciphering preclinical disease and injury mechanisms. High-resolution images can be obtained quickly however data acquisition are often bottlenecked by manual analysis...
Food exploration is an essential survival behavior in organisms. To find food efficiently, many organisms use a foraging strategy called area-restricted search (ARS) wherein individuals first turn more frequently, restricting their search to one area...
Technologies for mapping the spatial and temporal patterns of neural activity have advanced our understanding of brain function in both health and disease. An important application of these technologies is the discovery of next-generation neurotherap...

The potential use of cholesterol esterases was tested to avoid alkaline hydrolysis for cleavage of plasma esterified oxysterols. The enzymatic hydrolysis was optimized by testing two sources of enzyme-Pseudomonas and bovine pancreas, presence of surf...
A brain consists of numerous distinct neurons arising from a limited number of progenitors, called neuroblasts in Drosophila. Each neuroblast produces a specific neuronal lineage. To unravel the transcriptional networks that underlie the development ...
