, 1993 “Which came first, the chicken or the egg?” For all its innocence, this is a question which, as this paper will show, obliges one to think deeply about the terms in which one ultimately seeks to explain biological systems. “A hen is only the egg’s way of making another egg”, in Butler’s (1878)1 apt phrase, sums up the view that organisms can most ...

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.Taxanes are widely used chemotherapeutics whose effects on cellular mechanics remain poorly understood. We show that paclitaxel induces rapid cellular contraction by promoting GEF‐H1 dissociation from microtubules and non‐muscle myosin II activation through RhoA/ROCK.

PathogensVery virulent plus Marek’s disease virus (vv+MDV) induces severe immunosuppression in commercial chickens. In this study, we evaluated how three Gallid alphaherpesvirus 2 (GaHV-2) vaccines (CVI-988, rMd5-BAC∆Meq, and CVI-LTR) protected against two ...

PLoS ONE, 2007 Hemangioblasts are bi-potential precursors for blood and endothelial cells (BCs and ECs). Existence of the hemangioblast in vivo by its strict definition, i.e. a clonal precursor giving rise to these two cell types after division, is still debated. Using a combination of mitotic figure analysis, cell labeling and long-term cell tracing, we show that ...

A redescription of Cryptosporidium galli Pavlasek, 1999 (Apicomplexa: Cryptosporidiidae) from birds [PDF]
, 2003 Clyptosporidium galli Pavlasek, 1999, described from the feces of birds, is redescribed with additional molecular and biological data. Oocysts are ellipsoidal, are passed fully sporulated, lack sporocysts, and measure 8.25 × 6.3 μm (range 8.0-8.5 × 6.2-6.

Network analysis of OTUs present in PM, PM-fed chickens and control chickens.
, 2012 PM-fed chickens (large red circles) and control chickens (large green circles) form distinct groups based on OTU (small black squares) abundance, although they still share many OTUs. PM (large yellow circles) was distinct from both groups of chickens. PM-

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.We established the avian chorioallantoic membrane (CAM) assay as a scalable in vivo model for studying circulating tumor cells (CTCs). Human gastrointestinal tumors spontaneously released genetically validated CTCs that were detected across multiple platforms, demonstrating that the CAM model provides an accessible tool for investigating early cancer ...
