INVESTIGATING THE ROLE OF HUMAN FRONTAL EYE FIELD IN THE PUPIL LIGHT REFLEX MODULATION BY SACCADE PLANNING AND WORKING MEMORY

Investigating the role of human frontal eye field in the pupil light reflex modulation by saccade planning and working memory

The pupil constricts in response to an increase in global luminance level, commonly referred to as the pupil light reflex.Recent research has shown that these reflex responses are modulated by high-level cognition.There is larger pupil constriction evoked by a bright stimulus when the stimulus location spatially overlaps with the locus of attention

AMPK inhibitor Compound C stimulates ceramide production and promotes Bax redistribution and apoptosis in MCF7 breast carcinoma cells

Compound C is commonly used as an inhibitor of AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK), which serves as a key energy sensor in cells.In this study, we found that Compound C treatment of Toothpaste MCF7 cells led to Bax redistribution from the cytoplasm to mitochondria and cell death.However, this effect does not involve AMPK.In addition, we found that
