Electrochromic displays are one of the most attractive candidates for paper-like
displays,[1±4] so called electronic paper, which will bring revolutionary advances in the …

Differentiating neurons must acquire many unique morphological and functional
characteristics in creating the precise neural circuits of the mature nervous system. The …

Dudai (1990) described that an ideal subject for studying the cellular and molecular bases of
learning should, probably, have ten large nerve cells, ten genes, a generation time of 1 …

Demyelination of the myelinated peripheral or central axon is a common pathophysiological
step in the clinical manifestation of several human diseases of the peripheral and the central …

Although classification of astrocytic tumors is standardized by the WHO grading system,
which is mainly based on microscopy‐derived, histomorphological features, there is great …

We examined the interior structure of exocytotic apertures in synaptic vesicles of
neuroblastoma× glioma hybrid cells using atomic force microscopy. The atomic force …

抄録 We observed the time-dependent morphological alteration of astrocytes during their
adhesion by atomic force microscopy (AFM) and investigated the relationships between this …

We examined the three-dimensional (3-D) arrangement of serotonin-like immunoreactive
neurons in the central nervous system (CNS) of the pond snail, Lymnaea stagnalis, by a …

Using the force modulation mode in atomic force microscopy (AFM), we have succeeded in
imaging elastic properties of agar gels immersed in water. The elastic images of agar have …

The present paper describes the applicability of atomic force microscopy (AFM) to the
observation of living cultured cells of an epithelial nature (human esophageal squamous cell …
