Dendritic Remodeling: Lessons from Invertebrate Model Systems.
Dendrites are the entry site of neural signals into neurons. Once formed, dendrites are not just the same in structure but rather are dynamically remodeled in vivo: some dendrites are pruned away, while others lengthen and branch out. Dendritic remodeling occurs not only during neural development, but also in mature dendrites under both physiological and pathological conditions, suggesting its ...
متن کاملBiology of Obesity: Lessons from Animal Models of Obesity
Obesity is an epidemic problem in the world and is associated with several health problems, including diabetes, cardiovascular disease, respiratory failure, muscle weakness, and cancer. The precise molecular mechanisms by which obesity induces these health problems are not yet clear. To better understand the pathomechanisms of human disease, good animal models are essential. In this paper, we w...
متن کاملModels to study ancient host-pathogen interactions: lessons from Crete.
The Aegean Conferences' first International Conference on Model Hosts took place on the picturesque Greek island of Crete. This meeting was the first of its kind and gathered together international experts who are using a vast array of hosts as models of infection, including worms, insects, mice, fish, rats, humans, squids, pigs, monkeys, protozoa, amoebae and ticks.
متن کاملRobustness: confronting lessons from physics and biology.
The term robustness is encountered in very different scientific fields, from engineering and control theory to dynamical systems to biology. The main question addressed herein is whether the notion of robustness and its correlates (stability, resilience, self-organisation) developed in physics are relevant to biology, or whether specific extensions and novel frameworks are required to account f...
متن کاملStructural biology of moonlighting: lessons from antibodies.
Protein moonlighting is the property of a number of proteins to have more than one function. However, the definition of moonlighting is somewhat imprecise with different interpretations of the phenomenon. True moonlighting occurs when an individual evolutionary protein domain has one well-accepted role and a secondary unrelated function. The 'function' of a protein domain can be defined at diff...
