Although numerous theoretical models implicate the prefrontal cortex (PFC) as a source of top-down control signals, empirical support is limited. In this review, we highlight direct evidence for this view of PFC function and discuss several lines of other supportive findings. Most evidence to-date is only suggestive due to methodological challenges in tracking the spatiotemporal dynamics of cortical networks. However, we discuss several promising approaches that could further our understanding of the role of the PFC in goal-directed behavior. 相似文献

In an effort, to develop comprehensive mathematical models for use in optimizing fermentation processes, product rate data taken at constant pH's for the lactic acid fermentation (Lactobacillus delbrueckii) were analyzed. It was observed that the rate of acid synthesis-time trajectories exhibited a “shoulder” effect at pH's less than 5. That is, a nearly constant rate of synthesis for up to 10 hr in the late growth phase, out of a maximum total fermentation time of 70 hr. This effect was used as a clue from which to structure the proposed model with parallel pathways. Simulating shunting pathways does, in fact, demonstrate that, the notion of parallelism is consistent with the expression of a shoulder. It is postulated, therefore, that a differential pH effect between two parallel pathways can account for the presence of a shoulder when both routes prevail, and no shoulder when either pathway predominates. 相似文献

"Big it up": endoreduplication and cell-size control in plants 总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6
Cells undergoing endoreduplication replicate chromosomal DNA without intervening mitoses. The resulting larger, higher-ploidy nucleus is often associated with an increase in cell size, but the molecular basis for this correlation remains poorly understood. Recent advances in characterising various mutants and transgenic plants are beginning to unravel how this unique type of cell cycling is regulated and how it contributes to cell-size control. Both cell growth (i.e. increase in cytoplasmic macromolecular mass) and cell expansion (i.e. increase in cell volume through vacuolation) contribute independently to increases in cell size in plants. A total organ-size checkpoint may also help to coordinate cell size and cell number within an organ, and can contribute to final cell-size determination in plants. 相似文献

Despite their abundance in the genome, transposable elements (TEs) and their derivatives are major targets of epigenetic silencing mechanisms, which restrain TE mobility at different stages of the life cycle. DNA methylation, post-translational modification of histone tails and small RNA-based pathways contribute to maintain TE silencing; however, some of these epigenetic marks are tightly interwoven and this complicates the delineation of the exact contribution of each in TE silencing. Recent studies have confirmed that host genomes have evolved versatility in the use of these mechanisms to individualize silencing of particular TEs. These studies also revealed that silencing of TEs is much more dynamic than had been previously thought and can be reversed on the genomic scale in particular cell types or under special environmental conditions. This article is part of a Special Issue entitled "Epigenetic control of cellular and developmental processes in plants". 相似文献

Hundreds of billions of cells undergo apoptosis in our body everyday and are removed by immunologically silent phagocytosis to maintain tissue homeostasis. Impairments in phagocytosis result in autoimmune and/or degenerative diseases. Eat-me signals are the key to the recognition of extracellular cargos and the initiation of the phagocytosis process by activating phagocytic receptors and signaling cascades, and are convenient targets for therapeutic modulation. Despite their importance, eat-me signals and other phagocytosis players are mostly identified on case-by-case basis with daunting challenges. This Commentary focuses on our latest knowledge of the extracellular players, highlights our approaches to systematically map unknown pathways by functional genetic and proteomic technologies, and discusses future direction to unravel the mystery of molecular phagocyte biology. 相似文献

Defective pronunciation of one or more mother language phones, i.e. dyslalia, represents the most frequent speech impairment both in children and adult people. Cases of persisting speech disorder need professional approach and help. The aim of the study was to obtain a model of physiological articulation of the sibilant "s" in children. The method of FFT spectral analysis was made use of. Results will serve for further use in evaluation of speech impairment. 相似文献

The purpose of the present experiment was to clarify the individuals as an appropriate "control" in research of social interactions in animals. As it has been established for the C57BL/6J mouse strain, the best control animals are individually housed for 5 days males in contrast to males placed with females or with other males in groups of 3-10 mice. Such male mice were less anxious and had high exploratory and motor activities in the elevated plus-maze, open-field, forced swimming and exploratory-activity tests. 相似文献

Two studies explored 1) the effect of instruction set upon the well known "dumping" of the vestibulo-ocular (VOR) post-rotatory nystagmus long time constant (TC) and 2) the effect of imaginary earth-fixed targets on postural control. Imaginary targets do not produce dumping and do not improve postural stability, with or without pitch head movements. 相似文献

A growing body of evidence implicates epoxide metabolites of mutagenic and carcinogenic polycyclic hydrocarbons as either the only species, or one of the contributing species responsible for these adverse effects. Selective induction of epoxide hydratase(s) catalyzing the transformation of epoxides to electrophilically unreactive dihydrodiols, under conditions not leading to increases in monooxygenase(s) responsible for epoxide formation would, therefore, be of interest. All inducers of rat hepatic epoxide hydratase (determined with [7-3H]styrene oxide as substrate) which have been discovered also induced monooxygenase (determined with benzo(a)pyrene as substrate) suggesting a possible common biosynthetic control of these enzymes. The enzyme levels observed in different sexes and at different stages of the ontogenetic development, possibly dependent on endogenous inducers, strengthened this view. No sex difference is epoxide hydratase activity was observed in young rats (1 to 5 days old) while epoxide hydratase levels were about 3-fold higher in adult males than in females, which was remarkably similar to the behavior of monooxygenase. Moreover, the prenatal development of epoxide hydratase and monooxygenase appeared to be similar--although the low enzyme levels precluded accurate determinations of the latter. Although different types of known monooxygenase inducers all led to epoxide hydratase induction in adult rat liver, their effect of epoxide hydratase and monooxygenase could be dissociated by transplacental treatment. Dissociation was clearest with inducers of the polycyclic hydrocarbon type which led to great induction of monooxygenase while epoxide hydratase remained unchanged. The increases in monooxygenase activity were very different when determined by two methods based on different principles, demonstrating that at least two monooxygenases are involved in oxidative metabolism of benzo(a)pyrene, and that the control of epoxide hydratase is not under common control with either of them. 相似文献
