Electrokinetic properties of the mammalian tectorial membrane by Ghaffari, Roozbeh, Page, Scott Lawrence, Farrahi, Shirin, Sellon, Jonathan Blake, Freeman, Dennis M.

“…Here, we measure the fixed charge density of the TM and show that this density of fixed charge is sufficient to affect mechanical properties and to generate electrokinetic motions. In particular, alternating currents applied to the middle and marginal zones of isolated TM segments evoke motions at audio frequencies (1–1,000 Hz). …”

Somatic accumulation of GluA1-AMPA receptors leads to selective cognitive impairments in mice by Bannerman, DM, Borchardt, T, Jensen, V, Rozov, A, Haj-Yasein, NN, Burnashev, N, Zamanillo, D, Bus, T, Grube, I, Adelmann, G, Rawlins, JNP, Sprengel, R

“…These immunohistological changes were accompanied by a strong reduction of somatic AMPAR currents in CA1, and a reduction of plasticity (short-term and long-term potentiation, STP and LTP, respectively) in the CA1 subfield following tetanic and theta-burst stimulation. …”

Emerging applications of nanocatalysts synthesized by flame aerosol processes by Sheng, Yuan, Kraft, Markus, Xu, Rong

“…It is believed that interfacing the two large fields of combustion and materials application will further motivate the advancement of combustion field, and benefit the materials community with an alternative and practical synthesis option. With this in mind, this article presents the most recent progress pertaining to such a linkage, which we hope to stimulate further and deeper interest in such cross-disciplinary efforts.…”
