Loss, persistence and reversal of phenotypic traits

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The irreversibility of complex trait loss has long been a tenet of evolutionary biology. However, this idea is increasingly at odds with the numerous documented exceptions across the Tree of Life. We synthesise this growing body of evidence across a diverse array of taxa and traits, exploring the evolutionary conditions that enable ...

Intraosseous sarcoidosis imitating peri‐implantitis: A case study

Clinical Advances in Periodontics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Sarcoidosis is a multisystem granulomatous disorder of unknown cause, typically affecting the lungs and lymph nodes, but it can also involve the eyes, skin, heart, bones, and other organs. The exact cause is unclear, but genetic factors and environmental triggers like infections, chemicals, or dust may play a role.

Insights into the synthesis, engineering, and functions of microbial pigments in Deinococcus bacteria

Frontiers in Microbiology
The ability of Deinococcus bacteria to survive in harsh environments, such as high radiation, extreme temperature, and dryness, is mainly attributed to the generation of unique pigments, especially carotenoids.

Effect of Fruit Acid–Milk Protein–Polysaccharide Interactions on the Physicochemical Properties and Sensory Quality of Low‐Fat Frozen Yoghurt

ChemFoodChem, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Flavor plays a crucial role in determining consumer acceptance of frozen delicacies such as ice cream and frozen yoghurt. The type and level of flavoring matter used impart distinct sensory characteristics, and it is essential to identify the minimal amount that provides desirable flavor intensity without affecting the texture and ...

The Influence of Drosophila Spire and Myosin V During Mid‐Oogenesis Is Independent of Their Direct Interaction

Cytoskeleton, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Cooperativity between cytoskeletal proteins is crucial for spatiotemporal coordination in biological processes, like oogenesis. In mammalian and Drosophila oogenesis, proper assembly and function of actin networks require coordination between actin assembly factors Spire and formins, as well as actin‐associated proteins like myosins and Rab ...
