To determine the superconducting gap function of a borocarbide superconductor YNi_2B_2C, the c-axis thermal conductivity kappa_zz was measured in a magnetic field rotated in various directions ...

For just a few hours, shimmering waves of calcium move through cells in the developing eyes of fruit flies. These spontaneous waves serve a purpose, enabling communication between cells and shaping ...

Top row: The cryo-ET averages of the gap junction channels (left) revealed striking caps (right; purple) on the inside of the cell. Bottom row: The gap junctions (light blue) allow cells to ...

Reduced sodium current 3,4 in EBZ myocytes may contribute to decreased conduction velocity. We studied gap junctional conductance in pairs of EBZ myocytes to determine if alterations occur and, ...

I want to create a network of gap junctions and simulate it using the PointNet simulator, but I'm not sure how to reference the gap junctions in the configuration ...

Abstract: The propagation patterns of electrical activity in the uterus are not well understood. However, the number and size of gap junctions between uterine smooth muscle cells towards the end of ...

Abstract: Memory in the nervous system is essentially a network effect, resulting from synaptic adaptation in a network of neurons. The heart too is a network of cardiac cells electrically coupled by ...

Get ready to immerse yourself in the enchanting world of animation as we embark on an exhilarating exploration of 2.5D animation. This cutting-edge technique serves as a bridge between the timeless ...
