Morphological differences and migration patterns of greater and lesser snow geese in New York State

open access: yesWildlife Society Bulletin, 2023
Lesser (Chen caerulescens caerulescens, LSGO) and greater snow goose (Chen caerulescens atlantica, GSGO) populations have increased substantially in the past 50 years.

Residual tail twisting in ascidian larvae is stabilized by asymmetric myofibrils that resist bilateral symmetry restoration

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Ascidian Ciona larvae initially show strong clockwise tail twisting, which is largely corrected during development. However, a small residual twist remains. This study shows that organized helical myofibrils in tail muscles mechanically stabilize this residual asymmetry, preventing complete restoration of bilateral symmetry and revealing how embryos ...

Acute and Long-Term Effects of Aortic Compliance Decrease on Central Hemodynamics: A Modeling Analysis

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2021
Aortic compliance is an important determinant of cardiac afterload and a contributor to cardiovascular morbidity. In the present study, we sought to provide in silico insights into the acute as well as long-term effects of aortic compliance decrease on ...

Septin 9 PB domains coordinate centrosome positioning and microtubule acetylation to control epithelial polarity

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Septin 9 polybasic domains couple phosphoinositide‐rich membrane binding to centrosome positioning, Golgi organization, and microtubule acetylation to control epithelial polarity. Their loss disrupts this axis, causing centrosome mispositioning, Golgi fragmentation, reduced microtubule acetylation, and polarity inversion via upregulation of the ...

Chromosome banding in sturgeons [PDF]

open access: yes, 1999
The article reviews the present knowledge of chromosome banding in sturgeons and summarizes recent findings obtained by both classical banding techniques (C-banding, fluorescent and silver staining) and molecular methods, such as fluorescent in situ ...

Banding with lesser trochanter fragment using nonabsorbable tape in trochanteric femoral fractures

open access: yesSICOT-J, 2021
Introduction: Trochanteric femoral fracture is one of the most common fractures in the elderly. Trochanteric femoral fracture with involvement of the lesser trochanter is considered unstable and recognized as having a poor prognosis. However, fixation of

Gastric Banding – to Band or Bypass [PDF]

open access: yesThe Annals of The Royal College of Surgeons of England, 2008
Whether to band or bypass is a controversial question and these two articles are timely. Interestingly, a ‘band all’ advocacy rarely comes from a bariatric surgeon who has ascended the difficult learning of laparoscopic gastric bypass surgery. In other words, based on their experience, there is little doubt in their minds that bypass surgery has better

Degradation mechanism of the von Willebrand factor A2 domain by nattokinase

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Nattokinase, a natto‐derived protease, exhibits potent antithrombotic effects. This study demonstrates that nattokinase directly cleaves the von Willebrand factor (vWF) A2 domain in vitro. Unlike the native regulator ADAMTS13, nattokinase degrades folded vWF independently of shear stress.

Effects of Aquaculture on Migration and Movement Patterns of Double-Crested Cormorants

open access: yesHuman-Wildlife Interactions, 2017
We analyzed 10,620 recovery records for double-crested cormorants (Phalacrocorax auritus) banded as nestlings from 1923 to 2006 to determine the population’s age structure, migration routes, dispersal patterns, and the possible influence of the expansion
