Recently, from the cellular forms of memory in the brain concurrently as both homosynaptic long-term potentiation (LTP) and heterosynaptic long-term depression (LTD), it was hypothesized by Cai a new mechanism for the formation of stable remote memory in the brain as heterosynaptic LTD-mediated irreversible neuronal degeneration. This chapter aims to further support such a hypothesis. It has recently been shown that LTD, including heterosynaptic LTD, proceeded with the intracellular clearance of...

It was suggested by Cai a theory that the nutrient gradient differentiate the cellular living states to form the three germ layers of animal embryonic gastrula differential developing to three different subsequent fates, with the endoderm manifesting cellular living states in nutritious condition and forming the epithelium of digestive and respiratory system; the ectoderm manifesting cellular living states of nutrient dependence and environmental effects, and giving rise to the nervous and epith...

It was recently added by Cai to neuropsychoanalysis the ascending noradrenergic (NA), serotonergic (5-HT) and acetylcholinergic (ACh) systems, differentiating the emotions/memories/conscious balance in waking and sleep for depression, as well as the ascending dopaminergic (DA) and ACh systems to motivation/selfishness/knowledge balance for schizophrenia. For psychiatric diagnosis, it is just delineated the psychological unbalance resulting from the detected pathologies by neuropsychoanalytic int...

Background: It was suggested by the limbic-reticular coupling theory that the hippocampus and amygdala regulate such descending limbic structures as the mammillary bodies, septum, hypothalamus and habenula, and in turn regulate the ascending noradrenergic, serotonergic, dopaminergic and cholinergic systems to consolidate and recall declarative memory, while the anterior and mediodorsal thalamic nuclei of Wernicke-Korsakoff syndrome beyond limbic-reticular coupling be related else to familiarity....

According to career education and learning research, role models can significantly influence others’ decision-making processes and career choices. Such effects may be particularly relevant for potential entrepreneurs and future teachers, as much learning in these professions relies heavily on role models. Thus, educating students who desire to work in these fields might profit from a more role model-centered approach. However, research has shown that university educators rarely serve as role mod...

The trade or exchange of products has changed from the face-to-face format to a virtual one. Commerce then starts from a traditional environment to a virtual environment in the face of the growing impact of the internet, giving space to electronic commerce. Derived from the COVID-19 pandemic, face-to-face purchases were limited due to confinement, special days and hours, thereby causing an economic crisis throughout the globe. The MSMEs in search of virtual means to advertise th...

Cold atmospheric plasma (CAP) has received great attention due to its noteworthy ability, and has also been widely studied over few decades in physics, biology and medicine. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the cold atmospheric pressure plasma effects on the proliferation of breast cancer cells. MDAMB-231 was used for this experiment. MDA-MB-231 cells were cultured in 24-well plate and treated with non-thermal plasma. The viability of the cancer cells was determined by MTT assay. Differe...

Real-time monitoring of the gastrointestinal tract in a safe and comfortable manner is valuable for the diagnosis and therapy of many diseases. Within this realm, our review captures the trends in ingestible capsule systems with a focus on hardware and software technologies used for capsule endoscopy and remote patient monitoring. We introduce the structure and functions of the gastrointestinal tract, and the FDA guidelines for ingestible wireless telemetric medical devices. We survey the advanc...

We report a nematode electrotactic-response valve (NERV) to control the locomotion of Caenorhabditis elegans (C. elegans) in microfluidic devices. This nonmechanical, unidirectional valve is based on creating a confined region of lateral electric field that is switchable and reversible. We observed that C. elegans do not prefer to pass through this region if the field lines are incident to its forward movement. Upon reaching the boundary of the NERV, the incident worms partially penetrate the fi...

We describe a planar MEMS silicon structure to record ion channel currents in biological cells. The conventional method of performing an electrophysiological experiment, 'patch-clamping', employs a glass micropipette. The micropipette tip is a source of thermal noise because of its inherent, tapered, conical structure, giving rise to a large pipette resistance. This pipette resistance, when coupled with the biological cell capacitance, limits the available bandwidth of single ion channel recordi...
