A comparative study of Zinc (II) ions removal by a locally produced Granular activated carbon [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Physiochemical properties of wastewater effluent from the plants of a brewery in Lagos, Nigeria were analyzed. The adsorption capacity of Granular activated carbon from animal horns when compared with the available commercial Granulated ...

Animal models of pheochromocytoma.

open access: yesHistology and histopathology, 2004
Pheochromocytomas are neuroendocrine tumors of adrenal chromaffin cells. They are rare in all species except rats but occur with increased frequency in several human familial tumor syndromes. Concurrence of pheochromocytoma with other tumors sometimes parallels these human syndromes in rats, bovines, horses and dogs but a shared genetic basis for human

The cytoskeletal control of B cell receptor and integrin signaling in normal B cells and chronic lymphocytic leukemia

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
In lymphoid organs, antigen recognition and B cell receptor signaling rely on integrins and the cytoskeleton. Integrins act as mechanoreceptors, couple B cell receptor activation to cytoskeletal remodeling, and support immune synapse formation as well as antigen extraction.

Capping Enzyme mRNA-cap/RNGTT Regulates Hedgehog Pathway Activity by Antagonizing Protein Kinase A

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2017
Hedgehog (Hh) signaling plays a pivotal role in animal development and its deregulation in humans causes birth defects and several types of cancer. Protein Kinase A (PKA) modulates Hh signaling activity through phosphorylating the transcription factor ...

Animal Models for Sars [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
In 2002–2003, severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) was a newly identified illness that emerged in Southern China, spread to involve more than 30 countries, and affected more than 8000 people and caused nearly 800 deaths worldwide. Although the etiologic agent was rapidly identified to be a previously unknown coronavirus (named SARS coronavirus or ...

Animal models of amblyopia [PDF]

open access: yesVisual Neuroscience, 2018
AbstractUnquestionably, the last six decades of research on various animal models have advanced our understanding of the mechanisms that underlie the many complex characteristics of amblyopia as well as provided promising new avenues for treatment.

A stepwise emergence of evolution in the RNA world

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
How did biological evolution emerge from chemical reactions? This perspective proposes a gradual scenario of self‐organization among RNA molecules, where catalytic feedback on random mixtures plays the central role. Short oligomers cross‐ligate, and self‐assembly enables heritable variations. An event of template‐externalization marks the transition to

Caspase-1 cleaves PPARγ for potentiating the pro-tumor action of TAMs

open access: yesNature Communications, 2017
Tumor associated macrophages (TAMs) promote cancer progression. Here, the author show that caspase-1 promotes TAMs differentiation by attenuating medium-chain acyl-CoA dehydrogenase activity and that inhibition of this axis results in suppression of ...

Long-Range Acoustic Interactions in Insect Swarms: An Adaptive Gravity Model [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The collective motion of groups of animals emerges from the net effect of the interactions between individual members of the group. In many cases, such as birds, fish, or ungulates, these interactions are mediated by sensory stimuli that predominantly ...
