Plasticity and Information
In this chapter, I discuss developmental plasticity in relation to the concept of reaction norms. Standard treatments of reaction norms have been...

Transgenerational Phenotypic Plasticity in Fishes
Phenotypic plasticity, which is sometimes referred to as an environmental driven phenotypic variation, is the capacity of a genotype to create a...

Understanding and leveraging phenotypic plasticity during metastasis formation
Cancer metastasis is the process of detrimental systemic spread and the primary cause of cancer-related fatalities. Successful metastasis formation...

New perspective on sustained antidepressant effect: focus on neurexins regulating synaptic plasticity
Depression is highly prevalent globally, however, currently available medications face challenges such as low response rates and short duration of...
-
Signaling, cancer cell plasticity, and intratumor heterogeneity
Cancer’s complexity is in part due to the presence of intratumor heterogeneity and the dynamic nature of cancer cell plasticity, which create...

Bolder together: conformity drives behavioral plasticity in eastern gartersnakes
Personality traits drive individual differences in behaviour that are consistent across time and context. Personality limits behavioural plasticity,...

An energetic approach to the evolution of growth curve plasticity
Growth in individual body size amongst different species can to a greater or lesser extent depend on environmental factors such as resource...

Anti-Hebbian plasticity drives sequence learning in striatum
Spatio-temporal activity patterns have been observed in a variety of brain areas in spontaneous activity, prior to or during action, or in response...
-
Computational modelling of plasticity-led evolution
Plasticity-led evolution is a form of evolution where a change in the environment induces novel traits via phenotypic plasticity, after which the...

Cancer cell plasticity during tumor progression, metastasis and response to therapy
Cell plasticity represents the ability of cells to be reprogrammed and to change their fate and identity, enabling homeostasis restoration and tissue...

Neuron–astrocyte metabolic coupling facilitates spinal plasticity and maintenance of inflammatory pain
Long-lasting pain stimuli can trigger maladaptive changes in the spinal cord, reminiscent of plasticity associated with memory formation. Metabolic...

Mesorhizobia strain and chickpea variety drive phenotypic plasticity of plant growth and nodulation
Chickpea ( Cicer arietinum ) establishes symbiotic relationships with several Mesorhizobium species and the three-way interaction between chickpea...

Plasticity QTLs specifically contribute to the genotype × water availability interaction in maize
Key messageMulti-trial genome wide association study of plasticity indices allow to detect QTLs specifically involved in the genotype x water...

CD146, a therapeutic target involved in cell plasticity
Since its identification as a marker for advanced melanoma in the 1980s, CD146 has been found to have multiple functions in both physiological and...
-
Biophysical control of plasticity and patterning in regeneration and cancer
Cells and tissues display a remarkable range of plasticity and tissue-patterning activities that are emergent of complex signaling dynamics within...

Cellular geometry and epithelial-mesenchymal plasticity intersect with PIEZO1 in breast cancer cells
Differences in shape can be a distinguishing feature between different cell types, but the shape of a cell can also be dynamic. Changes in cell shape...

Metabolic plasticity drives mismatches in physiological traits between prey and predator
Metabolic rate, the rate of energy use, underpins key ecological traits of organisms, from development and locomotion to interaction rates between...

Adaptive phenotypic plasticity of mandibles with respect to host plants
Polyphagous butterflies, i.e., those that feed on multiple host plants, need to evolve adaptations against the defenses of many plants. Studies have...

KDM6A epigenetically regulates subtype plasticity in small cell lung cancer
Small cell lung cancer (SCLC) exists broadly in four molecular subtypes: ASCL1, NEUROD1, POU2F3 and Inflammatory. Initially, SCLC subtypes were...
