Leaky Scanning02:28

Leaky Scanning

5.7K
During most eukaryotic translation processes, the small 40S ribosome subunit scans an mRNA from its 5' end until it encounters the first start AUG codon. The large 60S ribosomal subunit then joins the smaller one to initiate protein synthesis. The location of the translation initiation is largely determined by the nucleotides near the start codon as there may be multiple translation initiation sites present on the mRNA.  Marilyn Kozak discovered that the sequence RCCAUGG (where R...

Structure of Benzene: Kekulé Model01:07

Structure of Benzene: Kekulé Model

11.7K
In 1865, August Kekule suggested the structure of benzene according to the structural theory of organic chemistry based on the three assertions—formula of benzene is C6H6, all the hydrogens of benzene are equivalent, and each carbon must have four bonds due to its tetravalency.
He proposed that benzene has a cyclic structure of six carbon atoms attached to one hydrogen atom each, with three alternating pi bonds.

Structure of Benzene: Molecular Orbital Model

12.3K
According to the molecular orbital (MO) model, benzene has a planar structure with a regular hexagon of six sp2 hybridized carbons. As shown in Figure 1, each carbon is bonded to three other atoms with C–C–C and H–C–C bond angles of 120°. The C–H bond length is 109 pm, and the C–C bond length is 139 pm which is midway between the single bond length of sp3 hybridized carbons (154 pm) and sp2 hybridized carbons (133 pm).

Computed Tomography01:10

Computed Tomography

8.1K
Tomography refers to imaging by sections. Computed tomography (CT) is a non-invasive imaging technique that uses computers to analyze several cross-sectional X-rays to reveal minute details about structures in the body.
The technique was invented in the 1970s and is based on the principle that as X-rays pass through the body, they are absorbed or reflected at different levels. In the technique, a patient lies on a motorized platform while a computerized axial tomography (CAT) scanner rotates...

Structures of Solids02:22

Structures of Solids

17.6K
Solids in which the atoms, ions, or molecules are arranged in a definite repeating pattern are known as crystalline solids. Metals and ionic compounds typically form ordered, crystalline solids. A crystalline solid has a precise melting temperature because each atom or molecule of the same type is held in place with the same forces or energy. Amorphous solids or non-crystalline solids (or, sometimes, glasses) which lack an ordered internal structure and are randomly arranged. Substances that...

Structural Isomerism02:34

Structural Isomerism

21.5K
Isomerism in Complexes
Isomers are different chemical species that have the same chemical formula. Structural isomerism of coordination compounds can be divided into two subcategories, the linkage isomers and coordination-sphere isomers.
Linkage isomers occur when the coordination compound contains a ligand that can bind to the transition metal center through two different atoms. For example, the CN− ligand can bind through the carbon atom or through the nitrogen atom. Similarly, SCN− can...

Summary

Scanning laser optical tomography (SLOT) visualizes whole mouse cochleae, detecting structural changes like reduced nerve fibers in Cav1.3-/- models. This method is suitable for gross changes but not fine cochlear structures.

Area of Science:

  • Hearing research
  • Otolaryngology
  • Biomedical imaging

Background:

  • Traditional cochlear imaging requires destructive sample preparation.
  • Scanning Laser Optical Tomography (SLOT) offers non-destructive visualization of the entire cochlea.
  • Cav1.3-/- mice exhibit known inner ear structural alterations, serving as a model.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate SLOT's efficacy in detecting structural differences in the murine cochlea.
  • To assess SLOT's capability in identifying phenotypic changes in a mouse model of hearing impairment.

Main Methods:

  • Whole, intact cochleae from Cav1.3-/- and wild-type mice were analyzed using SLOT.
  • Immunostaining and osmium tetroxide staining were employed.
  • Results were compared with fluorescence microscopy analyses.

Main Results:

  • SLOT revealed an absence of nerve fiber staining in Cav1.3-/- mice at P27 compared to wild-type.
  • Confirmation of reduced radial nerve fibers and ribbon synapses per inner hair cell in the cochlear apex.
  • Significant reduction in ribbon synapses observed at P20 and P27 in the apical cochlea of mutant mice.

Conclusions:

  • SLOT is effective for analyzing gross structural changes in non-dissected cochleae.
  • The Cav1.3-/- mouse model demonstrated SLOT's utility in identifying major phenotypic alterations.
  • For detailed fine structural analysis, complementary methods remain necessary.
