MOLECULAR PROGRAMS INDUCED BY HEAT ACCLIMATION CONFER NEUROPROTECTION AGAINST TBI AND HYPOXIC INSULTS VIA CROSS-TOLERANCE MECHANISMS

Molecular programs induced by heat acclimation confer neuroprotection against TBI and hypoxic insults via cross-tolerance mechanisms

Neuroprotection following prolonged exposure to high ambient temperatures (heat Eddy Brake acclimation HA) develops via altered molecular programs such as cross-tolerance (Heat Acclimation -Neuroprotection Cross-Tolerance -HANCT).The mechanisms underlying cross-tolerance depend on enhanced on-demand protective pathways evolving during acclimation.T

A Study on the Impact of Personality Traits on Behavior of Game Players Toward Spending on In-game Microtransactions

This study examined how personality influences consumer behavior of electronic game players.Participants ( N = 479) were respectively placed into four groups plush toy called microtransaction group (if they had made any in-game microtransactions, n = 192), free-game group (if they had only played entirely free games, n = 124), pay-to-play group (if

Tubular organotypic culture model of human kidney.

Cell-culture methods that simplify the inherent complexities of the kidney have not sufficiently reproduced its true characteristics.Although reports indicate that organoid methodology surpasses traditional cell culture in terms of reproducing the nature of organs, the study of human kidney organoids have been confined to pluripotent stem cells.Fur

Tonic and phasic transcutaneous auricular vagus nerve stimulation (taVNS) both evoke rapid and transient pupil dilation

Background: Transcutaneous auricular vagus nerve stimulation Pedal Shaft (tVNS or taVNS) is a non-invasive method of electrical stimulation of the afferent pathway of the vagus nerve, suggested to drive changes in putative physiological markers of noradrenergic activity, including pupil dilation.Objective: However, it is unknown whether different t
