This, coupled with the deactivation of this region in previous studies of anesthesia [47], [48], suggests that propofol sedation not only suppresses processing of extrinsic stimuli [34], but may also obtund the intrinsic (de-afferented) cortical arousal associated with dreaming.
Visual search, like selective attention in general, often utilizes top-down control to direct attention to the relevant stimuli while simultaneously suppressing processing of irrelevant stimuli.
Within the N-glycan biosynthetic pathway, GnT-III (N-acetylglucosaminyltransferase-III) introduces bisecting GlcNAc (N-acetylglucosamine) and suppresses processing of branched or complex glycans catalyzed by GnT-V.
The β-Ga2O3 nanowires exhibited broad blue emission with a lifetime of 2.4 ns which was strongly suppressed after processing at 500 600 °C giving rise to red emission centered at 680 nm with a lifetime of 19 μs.
Spatial attention seems not only to enhance processing at attended locations but also to suppress processing at nonattended locations [ 35].
Load theory [2] proposes that increasing processing load associated with an attended target will suppress perceptual processing of distractors due to progressive exhaustion of fixed processing capacity.
The annotated functional roles of the affected genes suggested that virulent Francisella infection suppressed cellular processes including mRNA processing, antiviral responses, intracellular trafficking, and regulation of the actin cytoskeleton.
While gamma activity is thought to reflect functional processing, alpha oscillations are now thought to reflect functional inhibition in order to suppress the processing of distracting information.
The hypothesis that reward activation may suppress nociceptive processing at an early supraspinal or spinal stage is further supported by the wide range of pain processing regions that exhibited analgesia-correlated activity decrease.
In this system, frequency lowering is conditional; it suppresses the processing whenever the high-frequency portion (>400 Hz) of the speech signal is a periodic signal.
