    Description

    Previous studies showed that harnessing innate immunity via CpG oligodeoxynucleotides (ODNs) modulates age-related defects. This study used elderly female squirrel monkeys as model of sporadic Alzheimer’s disease pathology. Current immunotherapeutic trials for Alzheimer’s disease have amyloid-related imaging flaws, which are linked to the presence of cerebral amyloid angiopathy (CAA). Therefore, the...

    Description

    This study developed a scalable model for long-term vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) in mice. Male C57BL/6 mice were instrumented with implanted ECG electrodes to measure heart rate threshold in conscious animals. In awake experiments, animals implanted with ECG leads were gently restrained and connected to a commutator that interfaced with the stimulus generator and the bio-amplifier. The dataset includes...

    Description

    Oxytocin is a neuropeptide released in the central nervous system, which is involved in a wide range of behaviors including reproduction, parental care, and pair bonding. In addition, peripheral oxytocin is important for milk ejection during nursing and uterine contractions during labor. Oxytocin is produced mainly in the paraventricular nucleus (PVN) and supraoptic nucleus of the hypothalamus. This...

    Description

    Histomorphological Phenotype Learning (HPL) was developed as a self-supervised methodology to discriminatory features in microscopy images to aid in cancer diagnosis and management. The methodology partitions whole slide images (WSIs) into meaningful Histomorphological Phenotype Clusters (HPCs) that can be used to define and quantify morphological phenotypes which recur within and between cases. HPL...
