ATF4 licenses C/EBPβ activity in human mesenchymal stem cells primed for adipogenesis.

abstract：:Cognitive functions such as working memory (WM) are emergent properties of large-scale network interactions. Synchronisation of oscillatory activity might contribute to WM by enabling the coordination of long-range processes. However, causal evidence for the way oscillatory activity shapes network dynamics and behavio...
