Marker-based motion capture (MBMC) is a powerful tool for precise, high-speed, three-dimensional tracking of animal movements, enabling detailed study of behaviors ranging from subtle limb trajectories to broad spatial exploration. Despite its proven...
BACKGROUND: Genetic variations in the Trpm8 gene that encodes the cold receptor TRPM8 have been linked to protection against polygenic migraine, a disabling condition primarily affecting women. Noteworthy, TRPM8 has been recently found in brain areas...
Galectin-3 (Gal-3) has emerged as a critical regulator of neuroinflammation and a promising therapeutic target for Alzheimer's disease (AD). Nevertheless, the development of brain-penetrant small-molecule Gal-3 inhibitors poses a significant challeng...
Microglial activation is linked to neuroinflammation in neuropathic pain. Recently, microglia-mediated synaptic pruning has received mounting attention. However, the exact role of spinal microglia in modulating neuropathic pain-associated neural circ...
Hypoxia arises in most solid tumors with insufficient blood flow, which hinders the delivery and efficacy of therapeutic agents to tumors. In this work, utilizing anaerobic bacteria capable of seeking out hypoxic areas for flourishing, we constructed...
Rodent rearing behavior is frequently assessed as an indicator of anxiety and exploratory tendencies. This study developed a convolutional recurrent neural network (CRNN) model to detect mouse rearing using overhead videos. Behavioral data from C57BL...
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) remains a pressing global health issue with limited therapeutic options. The loss of nephrons is a crucial pathological change driving CKD progression, influenced by diverse programmed cell death (PCD) pathways, yet the p...
Machine learning (ML) techniques are increasingly being used to improve disease diagnosis and treatment. However, the application of these computational approaches to the early diagnosis of age-related hearing loss (ARHL), the most common sensory def...
Accurately capturing the temporal distribution of polysomnographic sleep stages is critical for the study of sleep function, regulation, and disorders in higher vertebrates. In laboratory rodents, scoring of electrocorticography (ECoG) and electromyo...
From visual perception to language, sensory stimuli change their meaning depending on previous experience. Recurrent neural dynamics can interpret stimuli based on externally cued context, but it is unknown whether they can compute and employ interna...
