Drosophila male genitalia rotation depends on permissive remodeling of the posterior abdomen

Developmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background One of the most characteristic morphogenetic processes in Drosophila is the 360° rotation of the male pupal genital disc. This movement is driven by the myosin Myo1D, whose expression in the genital disc is controlled by the Hox gene Abdominal‐B (Abd‐B).

NF-κB Transcription Factor Role in Consolidation and Reconsolidation of Persistent Memories

Frontiers in Molecular Neuroscience, 2015
Transcriptional regulation is an important molecular process required for long-term neural plasticity and long-term memory formation. Thus, one main interest in molecular neuroscience in the last decades has been the identification of transcription ...

Synthesis of Naphthoquinones by Pd‐Catalyzed Heck–Matsuda Arylation of Lapachol

European Journal of Organic Chemistry, EarlyView.
Direct Heck–Matsuda arylation of lapachol enables the efficient synthesis of diverse naphthoquinones under homogeneous and heterogeneous palladium catalysis. The methodology features broad substrate scope, gram‐scale applicability, and provides a practical platform for quinone diversification.

Nucleoside triphosphate diphosphohydrolase1 (TcNTPDase-1) gene expression is increased due to heat shock and in infective forms of Trypanosoma cruzi

Parasites & Vectors, 2014
Background Ecto-Nucleoside Triphosphate Diphosphohydrolases (Ecto-NTPDases) are enzymes that hydrolyze tri- and/or di-phosphate nucleotides. Evidences point to their participation in Trypanosoma cruzi virulence and infectivity.

Scn1a‐mediated developmental regulation of prefrontal cortex plasticity and cognition

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective The voltage‐gated sodium channel Nav1.1, encoded by Scn1a, is essential for γ‐aminobutyric acid (GABA)ergic function, and its alteration is associated with neurological disorders such as Dravet syndrome and Alzheimer's disease. We previously demonstrated that local Nav1.1 dysfunction in the medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC) during ...

Biological Effects of Selenium‐Containing Ionic Liquids: Cytotoxicity, Mercury Interaction, and Antiproliferative Activity in Glioblastoma Cells

Journal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Selenium (Se) is an essential micronutrient that participates in redox regulation and cellular homeostasis. Selenium‐containing ionic liquids (ILsSe) have emerged as hybrid compounds combining the properties of organoselenium molecules with the tunable features of ionic liquids.

Biotechnological applications of D-xylose-fermenting autochthonous yeasts in lignocellulosic biorefineries

Biotechnology for Biofuels and Bioproducts
The efficient fermentation of D-xylose by yeasts remains a major bottleneck for the sustainable production of second-generation bioethanol, as this pentose represents a substantial fraction of hemicellulosic sugars in lignocellulosic biomass.

Exposure–Recovery Approach for Hepatic Toxicity Analysis of Pyrethroid Lambda‐Cyhalothrin: Histopathological, Histochemical, and Biochemical Responses in Oreochromis niloticus

Journal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Lambda‐cyhalothrin is a synthetic pyrethroid insecticide widely used in agriculture, but its potential to contaminate aquatic ecosystems and exert high toxicity on fish at low concentrations raises ecotoxicological concerns. While standard histopathological and biochemical assessments are common, the novel integration of pigment‐based ...

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

Journal 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 ...
