Mitochondrial fusion-fission model. by Zhi Yang Tam (469773)

“…In this case, the mixing time <i>τ</i> is defined as the time for the scaled COV of R_M^mito to reach −63.2%. A faster decrease in the mean COV of R_M^mito indicates a faster mixing and hence is indicated by a smaller mixing time constant <i>τ</i>. …”

Hypercoagulability promotes neutrophil intraplaque recruitment and severe plaque phenotype. by Julian I. Borissoff (280594)

“…Macrophage and neutrophil infiltration were expressed as the absolute number of Mac-2⁺ and Ly-6G⁺ cells per plaque. (A, B) Hypocoagulability in FII^−/+:ApoE^−/− mice promoted an anti-inflammatory plaque profile, indicated by a significant decrease in macrophage infiltration compared to control ApoE^−/− mice: 26±9 vs. 54±15 cells per plaque (n = 10 per group, p = 0.0067). …”

Short-term time-restricted feeding during the resting phase is sufficient to induce leptin resistance that contributes to development of obesity and metabolic disorders in mice by Katsutaka Oishi (278169)

“…The DF-induced increases in body weight gain, food efficiency, adipose tissue mass, lipogenic gene expression in metabolic tissues, and hepatic lipid accumulation were abolished in <i>db</i>/<i>db</i> mice, suggesting that the leptin resistance is a cause of DF-induced metabolic disorders. DF resulted in deep hypothermia in <i>db</i>/<i>db</i>, as well as in wild-type mice, suggesting that a decrease in energy expenditure was not the main cause of DF-induced obesity. …”
