A Nutrient Combination that Can Affect Synapse Formation
Brain neurons form synapses throughout the life span. This process is initiated by neuronal depolarization, however the numbers of synapses thus formed depend on brain levels of three key nutrients-uridine, the omega-3 fatty acid DHA, and choline. Given together, these nutrients accelerate formation of synaptic membrane, the major component of synapses. In infants, when synaptogenesis is maxima...
متن کاملCan Nutrient Synchrony Affect Performance of Forage-Fed Cattle?
Synchrony is defined as to represent or arrange to indicate coexistence or parallel occurrence. Thus nutrient synchrony would imply a parallel occurrence of nutrients for the ruminant animal to consume or be present in the diet and rumen. Thus by supplying energy and nitrogen sources concurrently, an increase or optimization of microbial efficiency should occur. The increase in microbial effici...
متن کاملAstrocytes Release Soluble Factors that Influence Synapse Formation
Introduction Glial cells comprise 90% of the human brain.1 Glia are divided into two subtypes, the microglia which function largely as scavengers to engulf apoptotic cell debris and the macroglia comprised of oligodendrocytes that myelinate axons, and astrocytes.2 Here we focus on the astrocyte which has many well-defined functions; astrocytes control ion homeostasis, uptake glutamate at the sy...
متن کاملImmunological synapse arrays: patterned protein surfaces that modulate immunological synapse structure formation in T cells.
T cells are activated by recognition of foreign peptides displayed on the surface of antigen presenting cells (APCs), an event that triggers assembly of a complex microscale structure at the T cell-APC interface known as the immunological synapse (IS). It remains unresolved whether the unique physical structure of the synapse itself impacts the functional response of T cells, independent of the...
متن کاملFACTORS THAT CAN AFFECT CONSUMERS’ AND PHYSICIANS’ USE OF VACCINES Factors That Can Affect Consumers’ Vaccine-Seeking Behavior
The demands of this poor public are not reasonable, but they are quite simple. lt dreads disease and desires to be protected against it. But it is poor and wants to be protected cheaply . . . What the public wants, therefore, is a cheap magic charm to prevent, and a cheap pill or potion to cure, all disease . . . Thus it was really the public and not the medical profession that took up uaccinat...
