The following information is about Alpha Channel.

Alpha Channel Defined

An optional channel in the texture file that usually defines the transparency of the texture’s pixels, but can also be used for other things like a height map. The alpha can be anywhere from 1bit up to 8bits, depending on the amount of detail you need. Generally, the lower the bit depth you use, the more memory you save, but the lower the image quality of the transparency.

This definition is in context to Real Time 3D. See more contextual defintions for Alpha Channel.

  • Parkinson's: Neurons Destroyed By Three Simultaneous Strikes: three molecules ? dopamine, a calcium channel, and a alpha-synuclei n ? act together to kill the neurons. neurons die because calcium channels lead to an increase of dopamine inside the cell; excess dopamine then reacts with alpha-synuclei n to form inactive complexes; the complexes gum up the cell's ability to dispose of toxic waste that builds up. The waste eventually kills the cell. neurons will survive if just one of the three factors is missing. It may be possible to save neurons and stop Parkinson' ;s disease by interfering with just one of the three factors. Most of dopamine inside the neurons is packaged into compartments that are shipped to the edge of the cell where the dopamine is released. The motor symptoms arise when the amount of dopamine released by the cells declines. L-DOPA improves symptoms by boosting the amount of dopamine released by the cells. Outside the compartments in the cell's cytoplasm, dopamine - in concert with calcium and alpha-synuclei n ? is toxic.
