Calluses are a diffuse area of hyperkeratosis occurring as a normal physiological response to chronic, excessive pressure or friction on the skin. They can be distinctive occupational stigmata when they occur on the hands. Herein we report the occurrence of calluses of the thumb in professional milkers as an occupational dermatosis.

Age-related changes to macrophages are detrimental to fracture healing in mice. [PDF]
The elderly population suffers from higher rates of complications during fracture healing that result in increased morbidity and mortality. Inflammatory dysregulation is associated with increased age and is a contributing factor to the myriad of age ...

Oriental lily hybrids engineered to resist aphid attack [PDF]
Establishing in vitro bulb scale cultures of lily cultivars followed by callusing and regeneration after gene transfer was found to be not very successful in our hands, except for ‘Snow Queen’.

Tissue culture of oil palm : finding the balance between mass propagation and somaclonal variation [PDF]
The oil palm (Elaeis guineensis Jacq.) is typically propagated in vitro by indirect somatic embryogenesis, a process in which somatic cells of an explant of choice are, via an intermediate phase of callus growth, induced to differentiate into somatic ...

Low Dose of Propranolol Does Not Affect Rat Osteotomy Healing and Callus Strength [PDF]
Experimental studies suggest that the β‐blocker propranolol stimulates bone formation but little work has investigated its effect on fracture healing. In this study, we examined if a low dose of propranolol, previously shown to be preventive against bone

Pattern formation during de novo assembly of the Arabidopsis shoot meristem [PDF]
Most multicellular organisms have a capacity to regenerate tissue after wounding. Few, however, have the ability to regenerate an entire new body from adult tissue. Induction of new shoot meristems from cultured root explants is a widely used, but poorly

Plants regenerated from tissue culture contain stable epigenome changes in rice. [PDF]
Most transgenic crops are produced through tissue culture. The impact of utilizing such methods on the plant epigenome is poorly understood. Here we generated whole-genome, single-nucleotide resolution maps of DNA methylation in several regenerated rice ...

Isolation of a transcriptionally active element of high copy number retrotransposons in sweetpotato genome [PDF]
Many plant retrotransposons have been characterized, but only three families (Tnt1, Tto1 and Tos17) have been demonstrated to be transpositionally competent.

Establishment of Hevea brasiliensis lines overexpressing genes involved in ethylene signalling pathway [PDF]
The gaseous plant hormone ethylene has a wide variety of applications in agriculture and horticulture. Ethylene Response Factors (ERF) are the last transcription factors of the ethylene signalling pathway and control a large number of ethylene-responsive
