Impact of resistant starch on body fat patterning and central appetite regulation. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2007
BackgroundAdipose tissue patterning has a major influence on the risk of developing chronic disease. Environmental influences on both body fat patterning and appetite regulation are not fully understood. This study was performed to investigate the impact

Antero-posterior patterning in the brittle star Amphipholis squamata and the evolution of echinoderm body plans

open access: yesEvoDevo
Although the adult pentaradial body plan of echinoderms evolved from a bilateral ancestor, identifying axial homologies between the morphologically divergent echinoderms and their bilaterian relatives has been an enduring problem in zoology.

Investigating body patterning in aquarium-raised flamboyant cuttlefish (Metasepia pfefferi) [PDF]

open access: yesPeerJ, 2016
Cuttlefish are known for their ability to quickly alter their total appearance, or body pattern, to camouflage or to communicate with predators, prey and conspecifics.

Body patterning [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2001
Early patterning of the body during animal development is a fundamental process to subsequent events including cell differentiation, tissue and organ formation, and correct function of the adult body. We focused on two major topics: body segmentation and brain patterning, both of which are essential for conferring a functional complexity to the body ...

Archetypal Architecture Construction, Patterning, and Scaling Invariance in a 3D Embryoid Body Differentiation Model

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2022
Self-organized patterning and architecture construction studying is a priority goal for fundamental developmental and stem cell biology. To study the spatiotemporal patterning of pluripotent stem cells of different origins, we developed a three ...

Centrin diversity and basal body patterning across evolution: new insights from Paramecium [PDF]

open access: yesBiology Open, 2017
First discovered in unicellular eukaryotes, centrins play crucial roles in basal body duplication and anchoring mechanisms. While the evolutionary status of the founding members of the family, Centrin2/Vfl2 and Centrin3/cdc31 has long been investigated ...

Brachiopod genome unveils the evolution of BMP signalling in bilaterian body patterning [PDF]

open access: yesNature Communications
The molecular control and ancestral state of dorsal–ventral patterning within spiralians remain unclear due to the remarkable diversity across species.

“Drop the Body”: Body Disposal Patterns in Sexual Homicide [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Offender Therapy and Comparative Criminology, 2020
The current study investigates body disposal patterns in sexual homicide and examines whether offender’s behavior differ between solved and unsolved cases. To address these two research questions in line with rational choice perspective, a series of logistic regression analyses was conducted on a sample of 250 solved, and 100 unsolved sexual homicide ...

Where does the cranial base flexion take place in humans? [PDF]

open access: yesAnais da Academia Brasileira de Ciências, 2020
The modern human has the most flexed cranial base among all living animals. The flexure allowed a larger cranial volume to accommodate a greater brain. Spheno-occipitalis synchondrosis (SOS) has been largely responsible for cranial base flexion, between ...
