“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 ...

Body patterning [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 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 ...

Body fat patterning and blood pressure levels: a comparative study between the Rai and the Lepcha in Sikkim

open access: yesAnthropological Review, 2021
We compared the perception of two ethnic groups in relation to health, obesity and blood pressure problems and its management, and to compare the body fat patterning and blood pressure levels between Rai and Lepcha ethnic groups.

Identification of Jmjd3 as an Essential Epigenetic Regulator of Hox Gene Temporal Collinear Activation for Body Axial Patterning in Mice

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2021
Body axial patterning develops via a rostral-to-caudal sequence and relies on the temporal colinear activation of Hox genes. However, the underlying mechanism of Hox gene temporal colinear activation remains largely elusive.

Antagonizing retinoic acid and FGF/MAPK pathways control posterior body patterning in the invertebrate chordate Ciona intestinalis. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
Vertebrate embryos exploit the mutual inhibition between the RA and FGF signalling pathways to coordinate the proliferative elongation of the main body axis with the progressive patterning and differentiation of its neuroectodermal and paraxial ...

Getting to the Heart of Left–Right Asymmetry: Contributions from the Zebrafish Model

open access: yesJournal of Cardiovascular Development and Disease, 2021
The heart is laterally asymmetric. Not only is it positioned on the left side of the body but the organ itself is asymmetric. This patterning occurs across scales: at the organism level, through left–right axis patterning; at the organ level, where the ...

A diploblastic radiate animal at the dawn of cambrian diversification with a simple body plan: distinct from Cnidaria? [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
Microfossils of the genus Punctatus include developmental stages such as blastula, gastrula, and hatchlings, and represent the most complete developmental sequence of animals available from the earliest Cambrian.

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 ...

Body size–fecal nutrient patterns of mammalian herbivores [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2021
In the recent article by le Roux et al. (1), the authors elegantly interlink several aspects of savanna ecology, one of which is a theoretically predicted positive relationship between herbivore body size and fecal N:P ratio. Their South African dataset supports this relationship, but our data from four other countries—including two other African ...
