Neuropeptide cholecystokinin:a key neuromodulator for hippocampal functions

Spatial memory is crucial for survival within external surroundings and wild environments.The hippocampus,a critical hub for spatial learning and memory formation,has received extensive investigations on how neuromodulators shape its functions(Teixeira et al.,2018;Zhang et al.,2024).However,the landscape of neuromodulations in the hippocampal system remains poorly understood because most studies focus on classical monoamine neuromodulators,such as acetylcholine,serotonin,dopamine,and noradrenaline.The neuropeptides,comprising the most abundant neuromodulators in the central nervous system,play a pivotal role in neural information processing in the hippocampal system.Cholecystokinin(CCK),one of the most abundant neuropeptides,has been implicated in regulating various physiological and neurobiological statuses(Chen et al.,2019).CCK-A receptor(CCK-AR)and CCK-B receptors(CCK-BR)are two key receptors mediating the biological functions of CCK,both of which belong to class-A sevenfold transmembrane G protein-coupled receptors(Nishimura et al.,2015).CCK-AR preferentially reacts to sulfated CCK,whereas CCK-BR binds both CCK and gastrin with similar affinities(Ding et al.,2022).The expression patterns of CCK-AR and CCK-BR are distinct,implying that CCK has various functions in target regions.For instance,CCK-AR is widely expressed in the GI and brain subregions and is hence implicated in the control of digestive function and satiety regulation.Conversely,CCK-BR is abundantly and widely distributed in the central nervous system,which majorly regulates anxiety,learning,and memory(Ding et al.,2022).However,the roles of endogenous CCK and CCK receptors in regulating hippocampal function at electrophysiological and behavioral levels have received less attention.

BOUNDARY VALUE PROBLEMS OF CONJUGATE AND GENERALIZED K-HOLOMORPHIC FUNCTIONS IN C^(2)

In this paper,conjugate k-holomorphic functions and generalized k-holomorphic functions are defined in the two-dimensional complex space,and the corresponding Riemann boundary value problems and the inverse problems are discussed on generalized bicylinders.By the characteristics of the corresponding functions and boundary properties of the Cauchy type singular integral operators with conjugate k-holomorphic kernels,the general solutions and special solutions of the corresponding boundary value problems are studied in a detailed fashion,and the integral expressions of the solutions are obtained.

Bibliographical Review on Rehabilitation of Executive Functions in Patients With Developmental Coordination Disorder(DCD)

The present study aims to establish a literature review on intervention programs for executive functions(EFs)through the use of fundamental motor skills,from a neuropsychopedagogical perspective in subjects with Developmental Coordination Disorder(DCD).An exploratory study was carried out through an integrative literature review.The research was carried out in the Scientific databases Electronic Library Online(SciELO),Latin American and Caribbean Literature in Health Sciences(LILACS),Virtual Health Library-Psychology Brazil(BVSPSI),Electronic Journals of Psychology(PePSIC),in the periodicals available in the Brazilian Digital Library of Theses and Dissertations(BDTD)and on the website of the Coordination for the Improvement of Higher Education Personnel(CAPES).The covering publications took place from 2018 to 2023,14 articles were selected for analysis.This literature review made it possible to create strategies for stimulating EF and Visuomotor Functions so that educators and other professionals can better deal with students with DCD.It was perceived the need to carry out and develop more empirical research regarding the intervention of EFs and Visuomotor Functions by educators and professionals,with a greater sampling amplitude,to increase the number of studies that enable interventions both in children and in teenagers with DCD.

A Set of Almost Automorphic Functions and Applications

For a set S of real numbers, we introduce the concept of S-almost automorphic functions valued in a Banach space. It generalizes in particular the space of Z-almost automorphic functions. Considering the space of S-almost automorphic functions, we give sufficient conditions of the existence and uniqueness of almost automorphic solutions of a differential equation with a piecewise constant argument of generalized type. This is done using the Banach fixed point theorem.

Coefficient Estimates for Certain Subclasses of Bi-Univalent Ma-Minda Mocanu-Convex Functions

In this paper, we introduce and investigate a new subclass of the function class ∑. of bi-univalent functions of the Mocanu-convex type defined in the open unit disk, satisfy Ma and Minda subordination conditions. Furthermore, we find estimates on the Taylor-Maclaurin coefficients ｜a2｜ and ｜a3｜ for functions in the new subclass introduced here. Further Application of Hohlov operator to this class is obtained. Several （known or new） consequences of the results are also pointed out.

Na^(+)/K^(+)-ATPase:ion pump,signal transducer,or cytoprotective protein,and novel biological functions

Na^(+)/K^(+)-ATPase is a transmembrane protein that has important roles in the maintenance of electrochemical gradients across cell membranes by transporting three Na^(+)out of and two K^(+)into cells.Additionally,Na^(+)/K^(+)-ATPase participates in Ca^(2+)-signaling transduction and neurotransmitter release by coordinating the ion concentration gradient across the cell membrane.Na^(+)/K^(+)-ATPase works synergistically with multiple ion channels in the cell membrane to form a dynamic network of ion homeostatic regulation and affects cellular communication by regulating chemical signals and the ion balance among different types of cells.Therefo re,it is not surprising that Na^(+)/K^(+)-ATPase dysfunction has emerged as a risk factor for a variety of neurological diseases.However,published studies have so far only elucidated the important roles of Na^(+)/K^(+)-ATPase dysfunction in disease development,and we are lacking detailed mechanisms to clarify how Na^(+)/K^(+)-ATPase affects cell function.Our recent studies revealed that membrane loss of Na^(+)/K^(+)-ATPase is a key mechanism in many neurological disorders,particularly stroke and Parkinson's disease.Stabilization of plasma membrane Na^(+)/K^(+)-ATPase with an antibody is a novel strategy to treat these diseases.For this reason,Na^(+)/K^(+)-ATPase acts not only as a simple ion pump but also as a sensor/regulator or cytoprotective protein,participating in signal transduction such as neuronal autophagy and apoptosis,and glial cell migration.Thus,the present review attempts to summarize the novel biological functions of Na^(+)/K^(+)-ATPase and Na^(+)/K^(+)-ATPase-related pathogenesis.The potential for novel strategies to treat Na^(+)/K^(+)-ATPase-related brain diseases will also be discussed.

INITIAL COEFFICIENT ESTIMATES FOR SOME SUBCLASSES OF M-FOLD SYMMETRIC BI-UNIVALENT FUNCTIONS

In the present investigation, we consider two new general subclasses B∑m（T, λ; α）and B^∑m （τ λ;β） of Em consisting of analytic and m-fold symmetric bi-univalent functions in the open unit disk U. For functions belonging to the two classes introduced here, we derive non-sharp estimates on the initial coefficients [a-~＋ll and │a2＋1│. Several connections to some of the earlier known results are also pointed out.

Addition Formulas of Leaf Functions and Hyperbolic Leaf Functions

Addition formulas exist in trigonometric functions.Double-angle and half-angle formulas can be derived from these formulas.Moreover,the relation equation between the trigonometric function and the hyperbolic function can be derived using an imaginary number.The inverse hyperbolic function arsinher(r)■ro 1/√1+t^(2)dt p1tt2 dt is similar to the inverse trigonometric function arcsiner(r)■ro 1/√1+t^(2)dt p1t2 dt,such as the second degree of a polynomial and the constant term 1,except for the sign−and+.Such an analogy holds not only when the degree of the polynomial is 2,but also for higher degrees.As such,a function exists with respect to the leaf function through the imaginary number i,such that the hyperbolic function exists with respect to the trigonometric function through this imaginary number.In this study,we refer to this function as the hyperbolic leaf function.By making such a definition,the relation equation between the leaf function and the hyperbolic leaf function makes it possible to easily derive various formulas,such as addition formulas of hyperbolic leaf functions based on the addition formulas of leaf functions.Using the addition formulas,we can also derive the double-angle and half-angle formulas.We then verify the consistency of these formulas by constructing graphs and numerical data.

THE FEKETE-SZEG PROBLEM FOR CLOSE-TO-CONVEX FUNCTIONS WITH RESPECT TO THE KOEBE FUNCTION

An analytic function f in the unit disk D ：= {z ∈ C ： ｜z｜ 〈 1}, standardly normalized, is called close-to-convex with respect to the Koebe function k（z） ：= z/（1-z）2, z ∈ D, if there exists δ ∈ （-π/2,π/2） such that Re {eiδ（1-z）2f′（z）} 〉 0, z ∈ D. For the class C（k） of all close-to-convex functions with respect to k, related to the class of functions convex in the positive direction of the imaginary axis, the Fekete-Szego problem is studied.

The Theory of Higher-Order Types of Asymptotic Variation for Differentiable Functions. Part II: Algebraic Operations and Types of Exponential Variation

In this second part, we thoroughly examine the types of higher-order asymptotic variation of a function obtained by all possible basic algebraic operations on higher-order varying functions. The pertinent proofs are somewhat demanding except when all the involved functions are regularly varying. Next, we give an exposition of three types of exponential variation with an exhaustive list of various asymptotic functional equations satisfied by these functions and detailed results concerning operations on them. Simple applications to integrals of a product and asymptotic behavior of sums are given. The paper concludes with applications of higher-order regular, rapid or exponential variation to asymptotic expansions for an expression of type f(x+r(x)).

The Theory of Higher-Order Types of Asymptotic Variation for Differentiable Functions. Part I: Higher-Order Regular, Smooth and Rapid Variation

Motivated by a general theory of finite asymptotic expansions in the real domain for functions f of one real variable, a theory developed in a previous series of papers, we present a detailed survey on the classes of higher-order asymptotically-varying functions where “asymptotically” stands for one of the adverbs “regularly, smoothly, rapidly, exponentially”. For order 1 the theory of regularly-varying functions (with a minimum of regularity such as measurability) is well established and well developed whereas for higher orders involving differentiable functions we encounter different approaches in the literature not linked together, and the cases of rapid or exponential variation, even of order 1, are not systrematically treated. In this semi-expository paper we systematize much scattered matter concerning the pertinent theory of such classes of functions hopefully being of help to those who need these results for various applications. The present Part I contains the higher-order theory for regular, smooth and rapid variation.

A data-adaptive network design for the regional gravity field modelling using spherical radial basis functions

A high-precision regional gravity field model is significant in various geodesy applications.In the field of modelling regional gravity fields,the spherical radial basis functions(SRBFs)approach has recently gained widespread attention,while the modelling precision is primarily influenced by the base function network.In this study,we propose a method for constructing a data-adaptive network of SRBFs using a modified Hierarchical Density-Based Spatial Clustering of Applications with Noise(HDBSCAN)algorithm,and the performance of the algorithm is verified by the observed gravity data in the Auvergne area.Furthermore,the turning point method is used to optimize the bandwidth of the basis function spectrum,which satisfies the demand for both high-precision gravity field and quasi-geoid modelling simultaneously.Numerical experimental results indicate that our algorithm has an accuracy of about 1.58 mGal in constructing the gravity field model and about 0.03 m in the regional quasi-geoid model.Compared to the existing methods,the number of SRBFs used for modelling has been reduced by 15.8%,and the time cost to determine the centre positions of SRBFs has been saved by 12.5%.Hence,the modified HDBSCAN algorithm presented here is a suitable design method for constructing the SRBF data adaptive network.

Strain concentration factor of heterogeneous materials and analytical influence functions based on Eshelby tensor

In this manuscript,Eshelby tensor is employed to assess the strain concentration that arises in the matrix phase at the interface,offering precise values and locations of maximum strain under specific loading conditions for both spherical and cylindrical inclusions.When compared to numerical simulation results,the analytical predictions grounded in the Eshelby tensor exhibit satisfactory accuracy.Then an analytical calculation method based on Eshelby tensor for the elastic strain influence functions of reduced-order homogenization(ROH)method is developed and adopted on particle-reinforced and fibrous composites,presenting its feasibility and advantage on off-line stage calculation of ROH method.The error analyses between analytical and numerical results are conducted.The numerical results also exhibit the necessity of finer interface partitioning to obtain the response on micro-scale with higher resolution.

FROM WAVE FUNCTIONS TO TAU-FUNCTIONS FOR THE VOLTERRA LATTICE HIERARCHY

For an arbitrary solution to the Volterra lattice hierarchy,the logarithmic derivatives of the tau-function of the solution can be computed by the matrix-resolvent method.In this paper,we define a pair of wave functions of the solution and use them to give an expression of the matrix resolvent;based on this we obtain a new formula for the k-point functions for the Volterra lattice hierarchy in terms of wave functions.As an application,we give an explicit formula of k-point functions for the even GUE(Gaussian Unitary Ensemble)correlators.

Image Splicing Forgery Detection Using Feature-Based of Sonine Functions and Deep Features

The growing prevalence of fake images on the Internet and social media makes image integrity verification a crucial research topic.One of the most popular methods for manipulating digital images is image splicing,which involves copying a specific area from one image and pasting it into another.Attempts were made to mitigate the effects of image splicing,which continues to be a significant research challenge.This study proposes a new splicing detectionmodel,combining Sonine functions-derived convex-based features and deep features.Two stages make up the proposed method.The first step entails feature extraction,then classification using the“support vector machine”(SVM)to differentiate authentic and spliced images.The proposed Sonine functions-based feature extraction model reveals the spliced texture details by extracting some clues about the probability of image pixels.The proposed model achieved an accuracy of 98.93% when tested with the CASIA V2.0 dataset“Chinese Academy of Sciences,Institute of Automation”which is a publicly available dataset for forgery classification.The experimental results show that,for image splicing forgery detection,the proposed Sonine functions-derived convex-based features and deep features outperform state-of-the-art techniques in terms of accuracy,precision,and recall.Overall,the obtained detection accuracy attests to the benefit of using the Sonine functions alongside deep feature representations.Finding the regions or locations where image tampering has taken place is limited by the study.Future research will need to look into advanced image analysis techniques that can offer a higher degree of accuracy in identifying and localizing tampering regions.

Let T_(ϕ,a)be a Fourier integral operator with amplitude a and phase functions ϕ.In this paper,we study the boundedness of Fourier integral operator of rough amplitude a∈L^(∞)S_(ρ)^(m)and rough phase functionsϕ∈L^(m)ϕ^(2)with some measure condition.We prove the global L^(1)boundedness for T_(ϕ,a),when 1/<ρ≤1 and m<ρ-n+1/2.Our theorem improves some known results.

AGGREGATE SPECIAL FUNCTIONS TO APPROXIMATE PERMUTING TRI-HOMOMORPHISMS AND PERMUTING TRI-DERIVATIONS ASSOCIATED WITH A TRI-ADDITIVEψ-FUNCTIONAL INEQUALITY IN BANACH ALGEBRAS
