Noncanonical Nucleotides in the Genome Around the Maternal‐Zygotic Transition

open access: yesJournal of Experimental Zoology Part B: Molecular and Developmental Evolution, EarlyView.
In this paper, Kazzazi et al. provide a comprehensive review of the dynamics of nonconventional nucleotides in the genome during early developmental stages, hypothesizing a potential role for these nucleotides in the activation of the zygotic genome. ABSTRACT From the very moment of fertilization and throughout development, the cells of animal embryos ...

Analysis of Gene Expression in Aedes aegypti Suggests Changes in Early Genetic Control of Mosquito Development

open access: yesJournal of Experimental Zoology Part B: Molecular and Developmental Evolution, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aedes aegypti, a critical vector for tropical diseases, poses significant challenges for studying its embryogenesis due to difficulties in removing its rigid chorion and achieving effective fixation for in situ hybridization. Here, we present novel methodologies for fixation, dechorionation, DAPI staining, and in situ hybridization, enabling ...

Escaping Constraints to Innovate: Maternal Neofunctionalization in a HoxB4 Duplicate

open access: yesJournal of Experimental Zoology Part B: Molecular and Developmental Evolution, EarlyView.
Whole‐genome duplication in Xenopus laevis generated duplicated Hox genes that are largely constrained in sequence and developmental expression. However, HoxB4L uniquely acquired maternal expression through cis‐regulatory and protein structural divergence, illustrating how gene duplication enables transcription factors to escape pleiotropic constraints

Mapping Intracellular Volume Fraction With Susceptibility Source Decomposition as a Marker for Tissue Cellularity

open access: yesJournal of Magnetic Resonance Imaging, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Pathophysiological changes affect tissue cell composition and density. For example, neurodegenerative disorders and brain tumors are associated with cell loss and abnormal accumulation, respectively. In these scenarios, if monitored and tracked, tissue cellularity might be used to inform clinical diagnosis and management. Purpose To

The use of edible insects in human food

open access: yesJournal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract The world population is expected to reach approximately 10 billion people by 2050, which will significantly increase global food demand and may lead to agricultural shortages and a higher risk of food insecurity. In this context, this review discusses the potential of insects as alternative sources of animal protein, addressing their ...

Potentially morally injurious events and posttraumatic stress symptom change across the military‐to‐civilian transition: A prospective study

open access: yesJournal of Traumatic Stress, EarlyView.
Abstract This prospective study examined whether exposure to potentially morally injurious events (PMIEs), specifically self‐attributed transgressions, other‐attributed transgressions, and experiences of betrayal, predicted change in posttraumatic stress symptoms (PTSS) and reintegration difficulty during the military‐to‐civilian transition (MCT). U.S.
