New signaling pathways targeting IKK were revealed in MyD88-deficient and TRIF-deficient macrophages, and shown to be described by the coupled systems formed by 3- and 5-component or\u0000 5- and 10-component pathways, respectively. By comparing the temporal pattern of IKK in WT macrophages with those in MyD88-deficient and TRIF-deficient macrophages, two new signaling pathways, which were absent in the above defective macrophages, were found and described by a system formed\u0000 by coupling 9- and 10-component pathways. As a direct consequence of the above findings, a coupled system composed of six different 3-, 5-, 5-, 9-, 10- and 10-component pathways targeting IKK and describing its temporal pattern, IKK(f), in WT macrophages was constructed. This system\u0000 significantly modifies the canonical NF-κB signaling by introducing novel pathways of IKK activation. The expression of nuclear NF-κB in WT macrophages was found to depend on two different signaling pathways and to be modelled by a coupled system composed of 1- and\u0000 4-component or 2- and 8-component pathways, in dependence on sampling frequencies used in different experiments.

It was first described in 1983 and, since then, has been treated with the usage of colored spectral filters, either as Irlen overlays either\u0000 as lenses for symptoms relief. However, the limited options of overlays compromise the pursuit for the patient’s optimal filter so that a device that could provide a broader range of colors would improve achievements for both screeners and patients. The present work aims to develop a\u0000 micro-controlled RGB LED device whose goal is to reproduce Irlen overlays combinations chromaticities through colored light metamers. Such a device can open possibilities for better diagnosing Visual Stress (VS) by providing screeners a much more extensive range of colors than regular overlays\u0000 and glasses and, therefore, allowing more accurate scrutiny of the optimal chromatic point for the patient. For the pursuit of this goal, a LED controller based on PWM (Pulse Width Modulation) of currents was built, and a color reproduction methodology was developed to ensure chromaticity\u0000 matching. From the 47 filters considered, 22 showed a ratio ΔE/JND < 6 and, thus, laid within a range that could provide the reading performance associated with its corresponding filter. Reproduction methodology was effective and demanded 5 main inputs: LED individual and white\u0000 point color coordinates plus LED characterization curves. The controller proved to be effective for color manipulation inside the device’s gamut, which opens the possibility for both readjustment of the chromaticity, if it is found to vary with patient’s aging, and further connection\u0000 to an eye tracker to shorten the search for the optimal point.","PeriodicalId":7213,"journal":{"name":"Advanced Science, Engineering and Medicine","volume":"154 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"77886603","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
