Antigen Processing Pathways01:31

Antigen Processing Pathways

2.1K
MHC molecules are key players in the immune response, enabling T cells to recognize and respond to specific antigens. They are present on the surface of all nucleated cells in the body and are instrumental in presenting antigens to T cells and activating them. T cells recognize the MHC-antigen complex and initiate an immune response. MHC class I and MHC class II are two main types of MHC molecules, each associated with a distinct antigen processing pathway.

Photoreceptors and Visual Pathways01:22

Photoreceptors and Visual Pathways

8.9K
At the molecular level, visual signals trigger transformations in photopigment molecules, resulting in changes in the photoreceptor cell's membrane potential. The photon's energy level is denoted by its wavelength, with each specific wavelength of visible light associated with a distinct color. The spectral range of visible light, classified as electromagnetic radiation, spans from 380 to 720 nm. Electromagnetic radiation wavelengths exceeding 720 nm fall under the infrared category,...

Steps in the Modeling Process

Albert Bandura's theory of observational learning identifies four critical processes: attention, retention, motor reproduction, and reinforcement or motivation.
Attention is the first necessary component for observational learning. It involves focusing on what the model is doing and saying. For example, if you decide to take a drawing class to enhance your skills, you need to pay close attention to the instructor's words and hand movements. The characteristics of the model significantly...

C4 Pathway and CAM

48.9K
Most plants use the C3 pathway for carbon fixation. However, some plants, such as sugar cane, corn, and cacti that grow in hot conditions, use alternative pathways to fix carbon and conserve energy loss due to photorespiration. Photorespiration is the process that occurs when the oxygen concentration is high. Under such conditions, the rubisco enzyme in the Calvin cycle binds O2 instead of CO2, which halts photosynthesis and consumes energy.

The C4 pathway is used by plants such as...

Equation of Motion: General Plane motion01:22

Equation of Motion: General Plane motion

564
In the context of a rigid body's movement within a general plane, it is important to understand that this motion is typically triggered by external forces or couple moments exerted onto it. This principle can be explained through Newton's second law, which stipulates the translational motion of the body's center of mass along each axis.
Moreover, the body's center of mass experiences a rotational effect as a result of these couple moments. This rotation can be articulated as the...

Absolute Motion Analysis- General Plane Motion

542
Visualize a drone, with its propellers spinning rapidly, hovering mid-air. The fascinating movements and operations of this drone can be comprehended by applying the principle of general plane motion.
As the drone's propellers rotate, an upward force is generated that counteracts the force of gravity, enabling the drone to lift off from the ground. This initial movement of the drone is along a straight path, representing a form of translational motion. In this phase, every point on the...

  • Computational Neuroscience
  • Vision Science

Background:

  • The optokinetic response (OKR) is essential for stabilizing gaze during visual motion.
  • Understanding the neural mechanisms of visual motion processing in OKR is complex.
  • Previous models have not fully captured the dynamic characteristics of OKR.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop a biomimetic model that accurately reproduces human and non-human primate OKRs.
  • To investigate the role of different neural pathways in visual motion processing during OKR.
  • To elucidate the spatiotemporal frequency tuning of neural circuits involved in OKR.

Main Methods:

  • Recorded OKRs from humans and non-human primates using drifting gratings with varying spatiotemporal frequencies.
  • Developed a computational model with two distinct pathways: transient and sustained.
  • Analyzed open-loop responses and closed-loop eye velocity gains.

Main Results:

  • The biomimetic model successfully reproduced the observed OKRs.
  • Identified two pathways with differential spatiotemporal frequency tuning.
  • Demonstrated that distinct visual sensitivities in each pathway explain OKR dynamics.

Conclusions:

  • Two distinct neural circuitries/populations likely contribute to visual processing in OKR.
  • The model provides insights into the neural basis of visual motion perception and eye movement control.
  • This work advances our understanding of the neural computations underlying the optokinetic response.
