ABNORMAL EXPRESSION OF CORTICAL CELL CYCLE REGULATORS UNDERLYING ANXIETY AND DEPRESSIVE-LIKE BEHAVIOR IN MICE EXPOSED TO CHRONIC STRESS

Abnormal expression of cortical cell cycle regulators underlying anxiety and depressive-like behavior in mice exposed to chronic stress

BackgroundThe cell cycle is a critical mechanism for proper cellular growth, development and viability.The p16INK4a and p21Waf1/Cip1 are important regulators of the cell cycle progression in response to internal and external stimuli (e.g., stress).Accumulating evidence indicates that the prefrontal cortex (PFC) is particularly vulnerable to stress,

V-SOC4AS: A Vehicle-SOC for Improving Automotive Security

Integrating embedded systems into next-generation vehicles is proliferating as they increase safety, efficiency, and driving comfort.These functionalities are provided by hundreds of electronic control units (ECUs) that communicate with each other using various protocols that, if not properly designed, may be vulnerable to local or remote attacks.T

Correction factors for prey size estimation from PenguCams

The use of animal-borne cameras enables scientists to observe behaviours and interactions that have until now, gone unseen or rarely documented.Researchers can now analyse prey preferences and predator-prey interactions with a new level of detail.New technology allows researchers to analyse prey features before they are captured, adding a new dimen
