Additional information reveals that when individuals make the transition from recreational drug or impulsive use to compulsive drug abuse, which may result in a neuroanatomical change in areas of the brain from cognitive control guided by the hippocampus/dorsomedial striatum towards conditioned control of behavior managed by the dorsolateral striatum (DLS) [1]. This review also looked at studies that involved experiments with humans and lower animals, which suggested that the hippocampus mediates a cognitive/spatial type of memory, while the dorsal striatum manages stimulus-response (S-R) habit memory, and the amygdala governs the classical conditioning form of learning and stimulus-affective-associative relationships [1]. Overall, these studies utilize the hypothesis of the memory systems view of addiction, and the involvement of learning and memory in the context of drug addiction, which was proposed by them [2]. This theory has been proposed in response to drug addiction research and includes alcohol, amphetamine, and cocaine [1]. The research also explains how stress and anxiety can play a role in how strong emotional excitement can lead to dependent habit memory in rodents and humans [1]. .展开更多

It is difficult for DRAM (dynamic random access memory) based memory system to satisfy the memory capacity requirement due to its limited scalability and high energy consumption. Compared to DRAM, PCM (phase change memory) has better scalability, lower energy leakage, and non-volatility. PCM memory systems have become a hot topic of academic and industrial research. However, PCM technology has the following three drawbacks: long write latency, limited write endurance, and high write energy, which raises challenges to its adoption in practice. This paper surveys architectural research work to optimize PCM memory systems. First, this paper introduces the background of PCM. Then, it surveys research efforts on PCM memory systems in performance optimization, lifetime improving, and energy saving in detail, respectively. This paper also compares and summarizes these techniques from multiple dimensions. Finally, it concludes these optimization techniques and discusses possible research directions of PCM memory systems in future.展开更多

文摘Aerobic exercise facilitates synaptic plasticity,thereby improving cognitive functions such as learning and memory.The 5-hydroxytryptamine system has been indicated in these processes.5-Hydroxytryptamine type 3 receptors are necessary for exercise-induced hippocampal neurogenesis.Some antipsychotic drugs with 5-hydroxytryptamine type 3 receptor antagonistic properties may impede the amelioration of cognitive impairment and hippocampal plasticity induced by exercise.However,the mechanisms underlying the facilitation of synaptic plasticity by aerobic exercise have not yet been elucidated.In this study,we found that 5-hydroxytryptamine type 3 receptors played an important role in aerobic exercise-mediated improvement of hippocampal-dependent spatial and exploratory memory in mice.While 5-hydroxytryptamine type 3 receptors did not affect baseline neurogenesis in the hippocampal dentate gyrus,5-hydroxytryptamine type 3 receptors were required for aerobic exercise-induced neurogenesis and astrocyte proliferation in this region.In addition,5-hydroxytryptamine type 3 receptors were crucial for maintaining long-term potentiation in the CA1,dentate gyrus,and CA3 regions of the hippocampus.The long-term potentiation changes induced by aerobic exercise in sub-regions of the hippocampus were heterogeneous:5-hydroxytryptamine type 3 receptors were essential for aerobic exercise to enhance long-term potentiation in the CA3,but not the CA1 or dentate gyrus,regions of the hippocampus.Furthermore,aerobic exercise up-regulated 5-hydroxytryptamine type 3 receptor expression and increased brain-derived neurotrophic factor release in the hippocampus in a 5-hydroxytryptamine type 3 receptor-dependent manner.These results suggest that aerobic exercise increases hippocampal dentate gyrus neurogenesis and astrocyte proliferation via the up-regulation of 5-hydroxytryptamine type 3 receptors,leading to more brain-derived neurotrophic factor production and release from these cells,which results in long-term potentiation facilitation in the hippocampal CA3 region and help improve memory.Our findings provide insight into the mechanisms by which physical activity enhances memory and may have implications for improving memory through modulating 5-hydroxytryptamine type 3 receptor.

文摘Near-infrared(NIR)light-responsive shape memory polymers(SMPs)show great promise for biomedical applications,but conventional photothermal agents suffer from high cost,complex preparation,or poor biocompatibility,while lignin-based alternatives exhibit insufficient photothermal conversion efficiency.Herein,we developed a novel strategy to enhance photothermal performance of lignin through sequential demethylation modification and Fe^(3+)complexation for constructing NIR light responsive SMPs.Dealkaline lignin(DL)was first demethylated using iodocyclohexane to produce demethylated lignin(DDL)with increased catechol content,which was then incorporated into polycaprolactone-based polyurethane synthesis followed by Fe^(3+)complexation.Results showed that DDL-Fe^(3+)complexes have significantly enhanced photothermal conversion performance,and the resulting PU-DDL+Fe^(3+)polyurethane with 0.5 wt%DDL content demonstrated a temperature increases of 39.8℃under 0.33 W·cm-2808 nm NIR irradiation.This excellent photothermal performance enables the shape-fixed PU-DDL+Fe^(3+)polyurethane to rapidly recover to its initial shape under NIR light irradiation.Additionally,PU-DDL+Fe^(3+)polyurethane exhibits good mechanical properties and biocompatibility,demonstrating significant biomedical application potential.

文摘Early life stress correlates with a higher prevalence of neurological disorders,including autism,attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder,schizophrenia,depression,and Parkinson's disease.These conditions,primarily involving abnormal development and damage of the dopaminergic system,pose significant public health challenges.Microglia,as the primary immune cells in the brain,are crucial in regulating neuronal circuit development and survival.From the embryonic stage to adulthood,microglia exhibit stage-specific gene expression profiles,transcriptome characteristics,and functional phenotypes,enhancing the susceptibility to early life stress.However,the role of microglia in mediating dopaminergic system disorders under early life stress conditions remains poorly understood.This review presents an up-to-date overview of preclinical studies elucidating the impact of early life stress on microglia,leading to dopaminergic system disorders,along with the underlying mechanisms and therapeutic potential for neurodegenerative and neurodevelopmental conditions.Impaired microglial activity damages dopaminergic neurons by diminishing neurotrophic support(e.g.,insulin-like growth factor-1)and hinders dopaminergic axon growth through defective phagocytosis and synaptic pruning.Furthermore,blunted microglial immunoreactivity suppresses striatal dopaminergic circuit development and reduces neuronal transmission.Furthermore,inflammation and oxidative stress induced by activated microglia can directly damage dopaminergic neurons,inhibiting dopamine synthesis,reuptake,and receptor activity.Enhanced microglial phagocytosis inhibits dopamine axon extension.These long-lasting effects of microglial perturbations may be driven by early life stress–induced epigenetic reprogramming of microglia.Indirectly,early life stress may influence microglial function through various pathways,such as astrocytic activation,the hypothalamic–pituitary–adrenal axis,the gut–brain axis,and maternal immune signaling.Finally,various therapeutic strategies and molecular mechanisms for targeting microglia to restore the dopaminergic system were summarized and discussed.These strategies include classical antidepressants and antipsychotics,antibiotics and anti-inflammatory agents,and herbal-derived medicine.Further investigations combining pharmacological interventions and genetic strategies are essential to elucidate the causal role of microglial phenotypic and functional perturbations in the dopaminergic system disrupted by early life stress.

文摘The highly dynamic nature,strong uncertainty,and coupled multiple safety constraints inherent in carrier aircraft recovery operations pose severe challenges for real-time decision-making.Addressing bolter scenarios,this study proposes an intelligent decision-making framework based on a deep long short-term memory Q-network.This framework transforms the real-time sequencing for bolter recovery problem into a partially observable Markov decision process.It employs a stacked long shortterm memory network to accurately capture the long-range temporal dependencies of bolter event chains and fuel consumption.Furthermore,it integrates a prioritized experience replay training mechanism to construct a safe and adaptive scheduling system capable of millisecond-level real-time decision-making.Experimental demonstrates that,within large-scale mass recovery scenarios,the framework achieves zero safety violations in static environments and maintains a fuel safety violation rate below 10%in dynamic scenarios,with single-step decision times at the millisecond level.The model exhibits strong generalization capability,effectively responding to unforeseen emergent situations—such as multiple bolters and fuel emergencies—without requiring retraining.This provides robust support for efficient carrier-based aircraft recovery operations.

文摘The distinctive feature of the adaptive immune system is its ability to generate immunological memory that can provide defense against subsequent infections.In the case of antibody-mediated immune responses,this memory comes in two cellular forms:plasma cells(PCs)and memory B cells(MBCs).PCs protect against reinfection by constitutively producing antibodies.The presence of a diverse pool of MBCs,which can expand and differentiate into PCs in secondary immune responses,is thought to be particularly important for defense against new pathogen variants.Recent studies have shown that the MBC compartment is far more heterogeneous than previously anticipated.This heterogeneity,among other factors,is shaped by their developmental pathway(germinal center(GC)vs non-GC-derived MBCs),the duration and strength of antigenic stimulation,anatomical and microanatomical localization,and the timing of generation in ontogeny.Combinations of these“layers”of MBC identities can define MBCs’properties and their fate in recall responses.Here,we review the mechanisms underlying MBC differentiation,maintenance,and reactivation and explore how the layered identity of MBCs contributes to the functions of these cells.

文摘GABA_(A) receptors containingα5-subunits(GABA_(A)R-α5)cluster at both extrasynaptic and synaptic locations,interacting with the scaffold proteins radixin and gephyrin,respectively,and the re-localization of GABA_(A)R-α5 influences GABAergic transmission.Here,we found that when early spatial memory deficits occurred in aged mice at 24 h after sevoflurane anesthesia,there was a re-localization of GABA_(A)R-α5 that enhanced tonic inhibition and reduced the decay kinetics of miniature inhibitory postsynaptic currents in the hippocampal CA1 region.Mechanistically,increased phosphorylation of radixin at threonine 564(Thr564)mediates the re-localization of GABA_(A)R-α5.Acute treatment with the selective extrasynaptic GABA_(A)R-α5 antagonist S44819 restored the GABA_(A)R-α5-mediated inhibitory currents by reversing radixin phosphorylation-dependent GABA_(A)R-α5 re-localization,then improved the sevoflurane-induced spatial memory impairment in aged mice.Our results suggest that the localization of GABA_(A)R-α5 altered by sevoflurane is linked to unbalanced GABAergic transmission,which induces early memory impairment in aged mice.Modulating the GABA_(A)R-α5 localization might be a novel strategy to improve memory after sevoflurane exposure.

文摘Shape memory polymers used in 4D printing only had one permanent shape after molding,which limited their applications in requiring multiple reconstructions and multifunctional shapes.Furthermore,the inherent stability of the triazine ring structure within cyanate ester(CE)crosslinked networks after molding posed significant challenges for both recycling,repairing,and degradation of resin.To address these obstacles,dynamic thiocyanate ester(TCE)bonds and photocurable group were incorporated into CE,obtaining the recyclable and 3D printable CE covalent adaptable networks(CANs),denoted as PTCE1.5.This material exhibits a Young's modulus of 810 MPa and a tensile strength of 50.8 MPa.Notably,damaged printed PTCE1.5 objects can be readily repaired through reprinting and interface rejoining by thermal treatment.Leveraging the solid-state plasticity,PTCE1.5 also demonstrated attractive shape memory ability and permanent shape reconfigurability,enabling its reconfigurable 4D printing.The printed PTCE1.5 hinges and a main body were assembled into a deployable and retractable satellite model,validating its potential application as a controllable component in the aerospace field.Moreover,printed PTCE1.5 can be fully degraded into thiol-modified intermediate products.Overall,this material not only enriches the application range of CE resin,but also provides a reliable approach to addressing environmental issue.

文摘Programmable/reprogrammable magneto-responsive composites(MRCs)are highly desirable for applications in soft robotics,morphable actuators,and biomedical devices due to their capabilities of undergoing reversible,complex,untethered,and rapid deformations.However,current MRC-based devices primarily rely on soft matrices,which revert to their original shapes and cease functioning when external magnetic fields are removed.Moreover,their magnetization programming,deformations,and functioning need to alternate between encoding and actuation platforms,limiting the adaptability and efficiency.Here,we present a reprogrammable magnetic shape-memory composite(RM-SMC)integrating a shape-memory polymer(SMP)skeleton with phase-transition magnetic microcapsules.High-intensity laser melts microcapsules for magnetic realignment under programmed fields,while low-intensity laser softens SMP for structural reconfiguration without compromising integrity.This dual-laser strategy facilitates in situ magnetization programming,shape morphing,and function execution within a single material system.Our innovative approach enables unique applications,including omnidirectional multi-degree-of-freedom actuators that can activate light switches,solar trackers that optimize energy capture,and adaptive impellers that modulate fluid pumping.By eliminating platform alternation and enabling shape/function retention post-actuation,the RM-SMC platform overcomes critical limitations in conventional MRCs,establishing a paradigm for multifunctional devices requiring persistent configuration control and field-independent operation.

文摘Various factors,including weak tie-lines into the electric power system(EPS)networks,can lead to low-frequency oscillations(LFOs),which are considered an instant,non-threatening situation,but slow-acting and poisonous.Considering the challenge mentioned,this article proposes a clustering-based machine learning(ML)framework to enhance the stability of EPS networks by suppressing LFOs through real-time tuning of key power system stabilizer(PSS)parameters.To validate the proposed strategy,two distinct EPS networks are selected:the single-machine infinite-bus(SMIB)with a single-stage PSS and the unified power flow controller(UPFC)coordinated SMIB with a double-stage PSS.To generate data under various loading conditions for both networks,an efficient but offline meta-heuristic algorithm,namely the grey wolf optimizer(GWO),is used,with the loading conditions as inputs and the key PSS parameters as outputs.The generated loading conditions are then clustered using the fuzzy k-means(FKM)clustering method.Finally,the group method of data handling(GMDH)and long short-term memory(LSTM)ML models are developed for clustered data to predict PSS key parameters in real time for any loading condition.A few well-known statistical performance indices(SPI)are considered for validation and robustness of the training and testing procedure of the developed FKM-GMDH and FKM-LSTM models based on the prediction of PSS parameters.The performance of the ML models is also evaluated using three stability indices(i.e.,minimum damping ratio,eigenvalues,and time-domain simulations)after optimally tuned PSS with real-time estimated parameters under changing operating conditions.Besides,the outputs of the offline(GWO-based)metaheuristic model,proposed real-time(FKM-GMDH and FKM-LSTM)machine learning models,and previously reported literature models are compared.According to the results,the proposed methodology outperforms the others in enhancing the stability of the selected EPS networks by damping out the observed unwanted LFOs under various loading conditions.

文摘New electronic devices based on the physical properties of electrically driven skyrmions are promising for logic computing and nonvolatile memory applications.However,achieving efficient and practical compute-storage integration remains challenging owing to the structural complexity,limited functionality,and low flexibility observed in most skyrmion-based devices.In this study,we designed a novel device architecture that integrates seven basic logic gates into a unified physical structure.Their operation can be enabled by physical mechanisms,such as spin-orbit torque,spin-transfer torque,skyrmion-edge repulsions,and skyrmion-skyrmion interactions.Furthermore,by incorporating voltage-controlled magnetic anisotropy,the device achieved multi-input capability and reconfigurability functionality.Ultralow power consumption(<1 fJ/bit per logic function)and extremely high logic density were achieved.Significantly,the compatibility of this nanotrack design with existing skyrmion racetrack memory paves the way for advanced in-memory computing in spintronic architectures.

文摘Oxide semiconductors(OSs),introduced by the Hosono group in the early 2000s,have evolved from display backplane materials to promising candidates for advanced memory and logic devices.The exceptionally low leakage current of OSs and compatibility with three-dimensional(3D)architectures have recently sparked renewed interest in their use in semiconductor applications.This review begins by exploring the unique material properties of OSs,which fundamentally originate from their distinct electronic band structure.Subsequently,we focus on atomic layer deposition(ALD),a core technique for growing excellent OS films,covering both basic and advanced processes compatible with 3D scaling.The basic surface reaction mechanisms—adsorption and reaction—and their roles in film growth are introduced.Furthermore,material design strategies,such as cation selection,crystallinity control,anion doping,and heterostructure engineering,are discussed.We also highlight challenges in memory applications,including contact resistance,hydrogen instability,and lack of p-type materials,and discuss the feasibility of ALD-grown OSs as potential solutions.Lastly,we provide an outlook on the role of ALD-grown OSs in memory technologies.This review bridges material fundamentals and device-level requirements,offering a comprehensive perspective on the potential of ALD-driven OSs for next-generation semiconductor memory devices.

文摘As the scaling of applications increases, the demand of main memory capacity increases in order to serve large working set. It is difficult for DRAM (dynamic random access memory) based memory system to satisfy the memory capacity requirement due to its limited scalability and high energy consumption. Compared to DRAM, PCM (phase change memory) has better scalability, lower energy leakage, and non-volatility. PCM memory systems have become a hot topic of academic and industrial research. However, PCM technology has the following three drawbacks: long write latency, limited write endurance, and high write energy, which raises challenges to its adoption in practice. This paper surveys architectural research work to optimize PCM memory systems. First, this paper introduces the background of PCM. Then, it surveys research efforts on PCM memory systems in performance optimization, lifetime improving, and energy saving in detail, respectively. This paper also compares and summarizes these techniques from multiple dimensions. Finally, it concludes these optimization techniques and discusses possible research directions of PCM memory systems in future.
