Neuronal encoding of texture in the whisker sensory pathway. by Ehsan Arabzadeh, Erik Zorzin, Mathew E Diamond

“…A major challenge of sensory systems neuroscience is to quantify brain activity underlying perceptual experiences and to explain this activity as the outcome of elemental neuronal response properties. Rats make extremely fine discriminations of texture by "whisking" their vibrissae across an object's surface, yet the neuronal coding underlying texture sensations remains unknown. …”

Massive-scale RNA-Seq analysis of non ribosomal transcriptome in human trisomy 21. by Valerio Costa, Claudia Angelini, Luciana D'Apice, Margherita Mutarelli, Amelia Casamassimi, Linda Sommese, Maria Assunta Gallo, Marianna Aprile, Roberta Esposito, Luigi Leone, Aldo Donizetti, Stefania Crispi, Monica Rienzo, Berardo Sarubbi, Raffaele Calabrò, Marco Picardi, Paola Salvatore, Teresa Infante, Piergiuseppe De Berardinis, Claudio Napoli, Alfredo Ciccodicola

“…Our analysis allowed us to detect differential expression of even low expressed genes crucial for the pathogenesis, to disclose novel regions of active transcription outside yet annotated loci, and to investigate a plethora of non-polyadenylated long as well as short non coding RNAs. Novel splice isoforms for a large subset of crucial genes, and novel extended untranslated regions for known genes--possibly novel miRNA targets or regulatory sites for gene transcription--were also identified in this study. …”

Genomic analysis suggests that mRNA destabilization by the microprocessor is specialized for the auto-regulation of Dgcr8. by Archana Shenoy, Robert Blelloch

“…<h4>Conclusion/significance</h4>We conclude that the Microprocessor's role in directly destabilizing coding mRNAs is likely specifically targeted to Dgcr8 itself, suggesting a specialized cellular mechanism for gene auto-regulation.…”

TWO-DIMENSIONAL CORRECTION OF ERASURES BY IDENTIFICATION OF MULTIPLICITY OF ERROR IN FORWARD AND INVERSE DECODING CHANNELS by N. A. Salas, B. K. Konopelko, A. E. Korolev

“…A method of correcting erasures based on the identification of the multiplicity of errors in two channels (forward and reverse) decoding in two-dimensional coding is proposed. Found that the proposed method makes full use of two-dimensional coding correction capability, by the use of identification errors in the forward and reverse channels, establishing a channel with a smaller number of errors and their correction by two-dimensional code.…”

Heterogeneous sensory innervation and extensive intrabulbar connections of olfactory necklace glomeruli. by Renee E Cockerham, Adam C Puche, Steven D Munger

“…Here we report that they can also differ in the strategies they use for stimulus coding. Necklace glomeruli are the sole main olfactory bulb (MOB) targets of an olfactory sensory neuron (OSN) subpopulation distinguished by its expression of the receptor guanylyl cyclase GC-D and the phosphodiesterase PDE2, and by its chemosensitivity to the natriuretic peptides uroguanylin and guanylin and the gas CO(2). …”
