Multi-modal locomotion robotic platform using leg-track-wheel articulations

…, F Gagnon, MA Legault, M Millette, JF Paré… - Autonomous …, 2005 - Springer
Other than from its sensing and processing capabilities, a mobile robotic platform can be
limited in its use by its ability to move in the environment. Legs, tracks and wheels are all …

Differential innervation of parvalbumin‐immunoreactive interneurons of the basolateral amygdaloid complex by cortical and intrinsic inputs

Y Smith, JF Paré, D Paré - Journal of Comparative Neurology, 2000 - Wiley Online Library
In the basolateral (BL) amygdaloid complex, the excitability of projection cells is regulated by
intrinsic inhibitory interneurons using γ‐aminobutyric acid (GABA) as a transmitter. A subset …

The α1-Fetoprotein Locus Is Activated by a Nuclear Receptor of the Drosophila FTZ-F1 Family

L Galarneau, JF Paré, D Allard, D Hamel… - … and cellular biology, 1996 - Taylor & Francis
The α 1 -fetoprotein (AFP) gene is located between the albumin and α-albumin genes and is
activated by transcription factor FTF (fetoprotein transcription factor), presumed to transduce …

The fetoprotein transcription factor (FTF) gene is essential to embryogenesis and cholesterol homeostasis and is regulated by a DR4 element

JF Paré, D Malenfant, C Courtemanche… - Journal of Biological …, 2004 - jbc.org
The fetoprotein transcription factor (FTF) gene was inactivated in the mouse, with a lacZ gene
inserted inframe into exon 4. LacZ staining of FTF+/- embryos shows that the mFTF gene is …

Endogenous gradients of resting potential instructively pattern embryonic neural tissue via notch signaling and regulation of proliferation

VP Pai, JM Lemire, JF Paré, G Lin, Y Chen… - Journal of …, 2015 - jneurosci.org
Biophysical forces play important roles throughout embryogenesis, but the roles of spatial
differences in cellular resting potentials during large-scale brain morphogenesis remain …

Nigral and pallidal inputs to functionally segregated thalamostriatal neurons in the centromedian/parafascicular intralaminar nuclear complex in monkey

M Sidibé, JF Paré, Y Smith - Journal of Comparative Neurology, 2002 - Wiley Online Library
In primates, thalamostriatal projections from the centromedian (CM) and parafascicular (Pf)
nuclei are strong and organized according to a strict pattern of functional connectivity with …

Cat intraamygdaloid inhibitory network: ultrastructural organization of parvalbumin‐immunoreactive elements

Y Smith, JF Paré, D Paré - Journal of Comparative Neurology, 1998 - Wiley Online Library
Projection neurons of the basolateral (BL) amygdaloid complex are regulated by an intrinsic
inhibitory network. To improve our understanding of this inhibitory circuit, we studied the …

[HTML][HTML] The mouse fetoprotein transcription factor (FTF) gene promoter is regulated by three GATA elements with tandem E box and Nkx motifs, and FTF in turn …

JF Paré, S Roy, L Galarneau, L Bélanger - Journal of Biological Chemistry, 2001 - Elsevier
Fetoprotein transcription factor (FTF) is an orphan nuclear receptor that activates the α 1 -fetoprotein
gene during early liver developmental growth. Here we sought to define better the …

Tauopathy with paired helical filaments in an aged chimpanzee

…, G Coppola, DH Geschwind, JF Paré… - Journal of …, 2008 - Wiley Online Library
An enigmatic feature of age‐related neurodegenerative diseases is that they seldom, if ever,
are fully manifested in nonhuman species under natural conditions. The neurodegenerative …

Mitochondrial biogenesis in the anticonvulsant mechanism of the ketogenic diet

…, J Wetherington, B Hassel, JF Pare… - Annals of Neurology …, 2006 - Wiley Online Library
Objective The full anticonvulsant effect of the ketogenic diet (KD) can require weeks to develop
in rats, suggesting that altered gene expression is involved. The KD typically is used in …
