Renewal of Skin Epidermal Stem Cells01:12

Renewal of Skin Epidermal Stem Cells

2.4K
The skin is divided into epidermis, dermis, and hypodermis, the skin's outermost, middle, and inner layers. The human epidermal layer regularly undergoes renewal, where old, dead cells are replaced by new cells. Epidermal stem cells or EpiSCs divide and differentiate to restore the lost cells. For the renewal process, some EpiSCs continuously self-renew. In contrast, few others differentiate into transit-amplifying cells, which later form prickle or spinous cells, followed by granular...

Necrosis01:16

Necrosis

5.1K
Necrosis is considered as an “accidental” or unexpected form of cell death that ends in cell lysis. The first noticeable mention of “necrosis” was in 1859 when Rudolf Virchow used this term to describe advanced tissue breakdown in his compilation titled “Cell Pathology”.
Morphological Manifestations of Necrosis
Necrotic cells show different types of morphological appearance depending on the type of tissue and infection. In coagulative necrosis, cells become...

Restorative Care01:19

Restorative Care

2.3K
Restorative care is provided once a patient has been discharged from a healthcare facility and requires additional services. The additional services include home care, rehabilitation programs, and extended care. Restorative care centers help the patient regain their previous level of functioning or acquire a new level of functioning due to the incapacitating effects of a disease or a disability. It aims to assist patients in enhancing their quality of life by encouraging independence,...

Renewal of Intestinal Stem Cells01:23

Renewal of Intestinal Stem Cells

2.7K
The intestinal epithelial lining rapidly renews every 4 to 5 days. The renewal is facilitated by intestinal stem cells (ISCs) located at the base of the crypt– a gland located at the bottom of each villus. ISCs divide asymmetrically to form new stem cells and progenitor daughter cells. The daughter cells are called transit-amplifying (TA) cells which move upwards along the crypt and either differentiate into absorptive cells– the enterocytes or secretory cells– including the...

Muscles for Facial Expressions01:14

Muscles for Facial Expressions

5.6K
The craniofacial muscles are a collection of approximately 20 thin skeletal muscles situated beneath the skin of the face and scalp. These muscles, primarily responsible for the vast array of human facial expressions, originate from the bones or fibrous structures of the skull and extend outwards to connect with the skin. While most skeletal muscles in the body are enveloped in thick fascia, facial muscles generally have a more delicate fascial covering, with the buccinator muscle being a...

Teeth01:15

Teeth

2.2K
The formation of teeth, also known as odontogenesis, is a complex process that begins in utero, around the sixth week of embryonic development. There are three stages to this process: the bud stage, the cap stage, and the bell stage.
In the bud stage, the tooth germ (an aggregation of cells) starts to form in the developing jawbone. During the cap stage, the tooth germ differentiates into enamel organ, dental papilla, and dental sac, which will later develop into the tooth's enamel, dentin...

Summary

Artistic depictions of Jesus in the Resurrection show his face less often from the left hemiface compared to the Crucifixion. This finding may relate to emotional valence and hemispheric differences in art.

Area of Science:

  • Neuroscience
  • Art History
  • Psychology

Background:

  • Secular portraits often feature the left hemiface, potentially due to stronger emotional expression from this side.
  • The valence theory of emotion suggests the right hemisphere processes negative emotions, while the left hemisphere processes positive emotions.

Observation:

  • Religious art was analyzed, comparing depictions of Jesus in the Resurrection versus the Crucifixion.
  • The study investigated the frequency of left vs. right hemiface portrayal in these artworks.

Findings:

  • Artworks of the Resurrection less commonly depicted Jesus's left hemiface compared to the Crucifixion.
  • Forward-facing and right hemiface depictions were more prevalent in Resurrection scenes.

Implications:

  • The observed hemiface asymmetry in religious art may be linked to hemispheric differences in emotional processing.
  • Factors beyond emotional valence, such as agency and biblical context, might also influence artistic choices in depicting Jesus.
