Corelease of GABA and glycine by mixed neurons is a prevalent mode of inhibitory transmission in the vertebrate hindbrain. However, little is known of the functional organization of mixed inhibitory networks. Golgi cells, the main inhibitory interneurons of the cerebellar granular layer, have been shown to contain GABA and glycine. We show here that, in the vestibulocerebellum, Golgi cells cont...

A modeling framework is developed to describe the structure and properties of fluid interfaces stabilized with grafted nanoparticles. The framework is demonstrated on nanoparticles functionalized with polymers of various grafting architectures; we find that the conformation of the grafted chains plays an important role in the interfacial tension.

Zwitterionic polymers are classical antifouling but they require specialized monomers that have cationic and anionic charges integrated into a single monomer. Herein, we show pseudo-zwitterionic copolymers synthesized from mixture of 2 each having opposite polarity has excellent antibiofilm efficacy. We discovered new mixed-charge copolymer brush (#1-A) oppositely charged monomers, the SPM (3-S...

Sexual selection has long been recognized as a potential contributor to the divergence in reproductive characters that ultimately leads to speciation. Schizocosa ocreata and Schizocosa rovneri wolf spiders embody a classic example of species divergence resulting from such sexual selection, as they are reproductively isolated by courtship behavior alone. Here, we characterize a newly discovered ...

PURPOSE To determine the effectiveness of a new multi-directional power toothbrush in reducing plaque when compared to a standard manual toothbrush control in a single brushing design. METHODS This was a randomized, replicate use, single-brushing, two-treatment, four-period, examiner-blinded crossover clinical trial at a single center. Qualified subjects entered an acclimation phase, after wh...
