Neuroeconomically dissociable forms of mental accounting are altered in a mouse model of diabetes by Chinonso A. Nwakama, Romain Durand-de Cuttoli, Zainab M. Oketokoun, Samantha O. Brown, Jillian E. Haller, Adriana Méndez, Mohammad Jodeiri Farshbaf, Y. Zoe Cho, Sanjana Ahmed, Sophia Leng, Jessica L. Ables, Brian M. Sweis

“…These foraging behaviors were driven by impairments in multiple decision-making processes, including the ability to deliberate when engaged in conflict and cache the value of the passage of time as sunk costs. Surprisingly, diabetes-induced changes in motivation depended not only on the type of choice being made, but also on the salience of reward-scarcity in the environment. …”

Pathologically altered articular cartilage attracts intense chondrocyte invasion into the extracellular matrix: in vitro pilot study by Victoria A. Shestakova, Ilya D. Klabukov, Ilya V. Kolobaev, Longfeng Rao, Dmitry A. Atiakshin, Michael A. Ignatyuk, Mikhail E. Krasheninnikov, Bagavdin G. Ahmedov, Sergey A. Ivanov, Peter V. Shegay, Andrey D. Kaprin, Denis S. Baranovskii

“…Materials and methods Cartilage matrix was prepared by devitalization of articular cartilage samples obtained intraoperatively from an adult patient undergoing knee joint replacement. hNC were obtained from native tissues by enzymatic digestion with further expansion over two passages. The obtained nasal chondrocytes were used to seed decellularized scaffolds, which were then cultured in vitro for 7, 14, or 21 days in chondrogenic medium. …”

The Effect of A2E on the Ca2+-PKC Signaling Pathway in Human RPE Cells Exposed to Blue Light by Maomei Luo, Shu Wang, Yun Tang, Chun Zeng, Shanjun Cai

“…Primary human RPE cells were cultured, and the cells in the 4th–6th passages were used in this study. The cells were divided into 5 groups: control cells (no A2E, no blue light), blue light-treated cells, blue light + chloroquine-treated cells, blue light + A2E-treated cells, and blue light + A2E + chloroquine-treated cells. …”

Les deux ‘Corinnes’ des Amours d’Ovide by Jacqueline Fabre-Serris

“…Je fais la liste de toutes les allusions métalittéraires, non au contenu des poèmes mais à l’activité poétique (passée) de l’ancienne Corinne, en essayant de montrer qu’elles font sens, non pas globalement (pour comprendre dans leur totalité les poèmes où on les trouve), mais isolément (c’est-à-dire qu’on peut lire dans ce sens certains passages). C’est par accumulation que ces possibles allusions, parce qu’elles se confortent, peuvent être considérées comme éclairant, voire explicitant, le positionnement d’Ovide en tant que poète s’appropriant un nom célèbre de poétesse, en faisant une coquille vide… et la remplissant par d’autres contenus poétiques associées à une puella élégiaque à laquelle il a donné le même nom. …”
