Membrane biophysics define neuron and astrocyte progenitors in the neural lineage.
Neural stem and progenitor cells (NSPCs) are heterogeneous populations of self-renewing stem cells and more committed progenitors that differentiate into neurons, astrocytes, and oligodendrocytes. Accurately identifying and characterizing the different progenitor cells in this lineage has continued to be a challenge for the field. We found previously that populations of NSPCs with more neurogen...
متن کاملEnergy Efficient Neural Stimulation: Coupling Circuit Design and Membrane Biophysics
The delivery of therapeutic levels of electrical current to neural tissue is a well-established treatment for numerous indications such as Parkinson's disease and chronic pain. While the neuromodulation medical device industry has experienced steady clinical growth over the last two decades, much of the core technology underlying implanted pulse generators remain unchanged. In this study we pro...
متن کاملMembrane biophysics
In physics, we usually want to reduce the behavior of the system to fit it to a formula. In biology, however, all the details of the system are important; their organization makes for life. Thus the organization of proteins in the plasma membrane is critical for various biological processes that occur on membranes. My purpose here is to introduce readers first to the opportunities for learning ...

متن کاملNeuron-astrocyte signaling in the development and plasticity of neural circuits.
Emerging evidence indicates that signaling between perisynaptic astrocytes and neurons at the tripartite synapse plays an important role during the critical period when neural circuits are formed and refined. Cross-talk between astrocytes and neurons during development mediates synaptogenesis, synapse elimination and structural plasticity through a variety of secreted and contact-dependent sign...
