Zebra stripes: the questions raised by the answers
ABSTRACT Multiple hypotheses have been suggested to explain why the three zebra species (Equus quagga, E. grevyi and E. zebra) are striped. We review how well these theories explain the nature (rather than simply the existence) of the stripes. Specifically, we explore how well different theories explain (i) the form of zebra stripes (especially on ...

Exploring the role of cyclin D1 in the pathogenesis of multiple myeloma beyond cell cycle regulation
Cyclin D1 overexpression altered the cell adhesion pathway, while cyclin D2 upregulation had less impact on pathway enrichment analysis. Multiple myeloma (MM) patients with cyclin D1 overexpression showed reduced CD56 expression and increased circulating tumor cells (CTC) levels, suggesting that cyclin D1 may contribute to MM cell dissemination ...

ASD, a natural plant product screened from small molecule compound library, is an antiobesity agent in mice. ASD promotes BAT thermogenesis to inhibit body weight gain. USP4 was identified and validated as a direct molecular target of ASD. ASD‐induced thermogenesis is modulated by a USP4–PPARγ–UCP1 axis.
