LOW-INTENSITY FOCUSED ULTRASOUND STIMULATION ON FINGERTIP CAN EVOKE FINE TACTILE SENSATIONS AND DIFFERENT LOCAL HEMODYNAMIC RESPONSES

Low-Intensity Focused Ultrasound Stimulation on Fingertip Can Evoke Fine Tactile Sensations and Different Local Hemodynamic Responses

Low-intensity focused ultrasound stimulation (LIFUS) has been proved effective in eliciting vibrotactile in addition to warm, cold and nociceptive pain when applied to human peripheral endings.However, if it can evoke fine tactile sensations has been rarely investigated by far despite the importance of fine tactile feedback in motor control.To expl

Two discrete events, human T-cell leukemia virus type I Tax oncoprotein expression and a separate stress stimulus, are required for induction of apoptosis in T-cells

Abstract Background It is poorly understood why many transforming proteins reportedly enhance both cell growth (transformation) and cell death (apoptosis).At first glance, the ability to transform and the ability to engender apoptosis seem to be contradictory.Interestingly, both abilities have been widely reported in the literature for the HTLV-I T

Deformation Evaluation of the South-to-North Water Diversion Project (SNWDP) Central Route over Handan in Hebei, China, Based on Sentinel-1A, Radarsat-2, and TerraSAR-X Datasets

The South-to-North Water Diversion Project (SNWDP) is a megaproject which has been constructed to alleviate imbalanced water resource distribution between northern and southern China.It encompasses three routes distributed in the east, central, and west of China, respectively.The central route (CR) of the SNWDP starts from the Danjiangkou Reservoir
