Description: We present a new distance estimation for the Milky Way dwarf spheroidal satellite Sculptor
obtained from multi-epoch mid-infrared observations of RR Lyrae stars (RRLs). The 3.6 μm
observations have been acquired with the Infrared Array Camera onboard the Spitzer Space
Telescope as part of the SMHASH program. Mid-infrared light curves for 42 RRLs were
obtained, from which we measured Sculptor’… more

Description: Modulation of neuronal circuits is key to information
processing in the brain. The majority of neuromodulators
exert their effects by activating G-proteincoupled
receptors (GPCRs) that control the production
of second messengers directly impacting
cellular physiology. How numerous GPCRs integrate
neuromodulatory inputs while accommodating diversity
of incoming signals is poorly understood… more

egl‑4 modulates electroconvulsive seizure duration in C. elegans

Publisher: Springer Nature
Description: Increased neuronal excitability causes seizures with debilitating symptoms. Effective and noninvasive treatments are limited
for easing symptoms, partially due to the complexity of the disorder and lack of knowledge of specific molecular faults. An
unexplored, novel target for seizure therapeutics is the cGMP/protein kinase G (PKG) pathway, which targets downstream
K+
channels, a mechanism… more

Description: This study seeks to better understand the human-nature interface and to measure the variability of
plant use knowledge among cultures, through inter- and intracultural analyses. We compared plant collection, use,
and management of two culturally distinct groups (Baitadi and Darchula) of the Nepal Himalaya. They inhabit
different physiographic regions, yet share the same ecological landscape,… more
