Activation of Integrins01:15

Activation of Integrins

3.7K
Integrins bind ligands and transmit information from outside the cell to inside or vice-versa through an "outside-in signaling" or "inside-out signaling."
In "outside-in signaling," external factors in the extracellular space bind to exposed ligand binding sites on integrins. This causes the inactive protein to undergo a conformational change to become active. Integrins are often clustered on the cell membrane. Repetitive and regularly spaced ligand binding...

Hedgehog Signaling Pathway02:33

Hedgehog Signaling Pathway

7.7K
The Hedgehog gene (Hh) was first discovered due to its control of the growth of disorganized, hair-like bristles phenotype in Drosophila, much like hedgehog spines. Hh plays a crucial role in the development of organs and the maintenance of homeostasis in both invertebrates and vertebrates. However, while Drosophila has only one Hh protein, mammals have multiple functional Hedgehog proteins - Sonic (Shh), Desert (Dhh), and Indian Hedgehog (Ihh). All of these homologous proteins have adapted to...

Continuous Charge Distributions01:17

Continuous Charge Distributions

7.5K
Imagine a bucket of water. It contains many molecules, of the order of 1026 molecules. Thus, although it contains discrete elements (molecules) at the microscopic level, macroscopically, it can be considered continuous. Small volume elements of water, infinitesimal compared to the bulk of the bucket's volume, still contain many molecules. Under this framework, quantized matter is approximated as continuous for practical purposes.
The electric charge can also be subjected to an analogical...

Summary
This summary is machine-generated.

Broken connectivity in neuronal networks causes coherent chimera states to localize around anomalies. Altering oscillator frequencies shifts incoherent domains toward the anomaly, aiding in detecting brain network disruptions.

Area of Science:

  • Computational Neuroscience
  • Network Science
  • Nonlinear Dynamics

Background:

  • Coupled neuronal oscillators exhibit complex synchronization patterns, including chimera states (coexisting coherent and incoherent domains).
  • Real-world neural networks often feature imperfect connectivity due to biological factors or damage.
  • Understanding how network structure affects dynamics is crucial for diagnosing brain disorders.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate the impact of broken connectivity and frequency disorder on chimera states in coupled neuronal oscillators.
  • To explore the potential of these phenomena for detecting anomalies in brain networks.

Main Methods:

  • Simulations of nonlinear oscillator systems (e.g., Kuramoto, FitzHugh-Nagumo) with nonlocal coupling.
  • Analysis of network synchronization using the Kuramoto synchronization index.
  • Modeling scenarios with both disrupted connectivity and altered oscillator frequencies.

Main Results:

  • Destructed connectivity causes coherent chimera domains to symmetrically localize around the anomaly.
  • Network synchronization decreases as the size of the destructed region increases.
  • Altering oscillator frequencies, with intact connectivity, shifts incoherent chimera domains towards the anomaly.

Conclusions:

  • Network anomalies can be identified by observing the behavior of chimera states under connectivity disruptions or frequency alterations.
  • This approach shows promise for detecting small, subtle anomalies in brain network structures.
