Synaptic interactions to extract information about wavelength, and thus color, begin in the vertebrate retina with three classes of light-sensitive cells: rod photoreceptors at low light levels, multiple types of cone photoreceptors that va...
Passing the Vascular Barrier: Endothelial Signaling Processes Controlling Extravasation [0.03%]

A central function of the vascular endothelium is to serve as a barrier between the blood and the surrounding tissue of the body. At the same time, solutes and cells have to pass the endothelium to leave or to enter the bloodstream to maint...
Myelin in the Central Nervous System: Structure, Function, and Pathology [0.03%]

Sleep and immunity are bidirectionally linked. Immune system activation alters sleep, and sleep in turn affects the innate and adaptive arm of our body's defense system. Stimulation of the immune system by microbial challenges triggers an i...
Endothelial to Mesenchymal Transition: Role in Physiology and in the Pathogenesis of Human Diseases [0.03%]

Neutrophils have always been considered as uncomplicated front-line troopers of the innate immune system equipped with limited proinflammatory duties. Yet recently, the role of the neutrophil has been undergoing a rejuvenation of sorts. Neu...
The UDP-Glycosyltransferase (UGT) Superfamily: New Members, New Functions, and Novel Paradigms [0.03%]
UDP-糖基转移酶(UGT)超家族:新成员、新功能和新模式
