Development of a Zebrafish Embryo‐Based Test System for Thyroid Hormone System Disruption: 3Rs in Ecotoxicological Research

Environmental Toxicology and Chemistry, EarlyView.
Abstract There is increasing concern regarding pollutants disrupting the vertebrate thyroid hormone (TH) system, which is crucial for development. Thus, identification of TH system–disrupting chemicals (THSDCs) is an important requirement in the Organisation for Economic Co‐operation and Development (OECD) testing framework.

Knockdown of Sec16 causes early lethality and defective deposition of the protein Rp30 in the eggshell of the vector Rhodnius prolixus

Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology
In nearly every species of insect, embryonic development takes place outside of the mother’s body and is entirely dependent on the elements that the mother had previously stored within the eggs.

Making care audible: Musical gifts and affective reciprocity in the clinic

Feminist Anthropology, EarlyView.
Abstract In clinical settings, music therapy is frequently received as a gift—a voluntary offering that invites but does not demand participation. Drawing on ethnographic research with music therapists and patients in Canadian and American hospitals, this article examines how clinical care is co‐constituted through practices of giving, receiving, and ...

Autophagy Determines Distinct Cell Fates in Human Amnion and Chorion Cells

Autophagy Reports
Human fetal membranes (amniochorion) that line the intrauterine cavity consist of two distinct cell layers; single-layer amnion epithelial cells (AEC) and multilayer chorion trophoblast cells (CTC).

Anuran call properties as reliable indicators of environmental suitability for reproduction

Frontiers in Ecology and the Environment, EarlyView.
The onset of animal breeding activity is often accompanied by auditory signals, typically produced by males, that indicate reproductive status to potential mates and competitors. Here, using male anuran advertisement calls as a case study, we present the novel hypothesis that characteristics of ectotherm auditory signals that are modulated by ...

Synergistic effects of antimicrobial components of the human-derived composite amnion-chorion membrane on bacterial growth

Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology
IntroductionThe human-derived amnion-chorion membrane (ACM) has endogenous antimicrobial properties, which are important for preventing the colonization and survival of oral bacteria on exposed membranes.

Longitudinal changes in health‐related quality of life after a breast cancer diagnosis in sub‐Saharan Africa: Evidence from the prospective ABC‐DO cohort

International Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
What's New? Breast cancer is now the most common malignancy among women in sub‐Saharan Africa (SSA). Its impact on survivors’ quality of life and Global Health Status (GHS), however, remains inadequately studied in this setting. Here, using data from the African Breast Cancer‐Disparities in Outcomes (ABC‐DO) study, the authors examined GHS over time in

RISK FACTORS AND CYTOMORPHOLOGICAL CHARACTERISTICS OF THE CHORION IN THE GENESIS OF SPONTANEOUS ABORTION IN FIRST TRIMESTER

Акушерство, гинекология и репродукция, 2016
Cytomorphological features of the chorion and risk factors for spontaneous abortion in the first trimester are studied. A total of 98 pregnant women were divided into 2 groups: the 1st (main) group - 38 pregnant women with spontaneous abortion in 1 ...

Role of egg surface glycoconjugate in the fertilization of the rock shrimp Rhynchocinetes typus (Milne-Edwards, 1837) El rol de los glicoconjugados de las cubiertas ovocitarias en la fecundación del camarón de roca Rhynchocinetes typus (Milne-Edwards, 1837)

Latin American Journal of Aquatic Research, 2012
During first gamete interaction, oligosaccharides on the glycoproteins present in oocyte envelopes of the rock shrimp, Rhynchocinetes typus, play an important role in spermatozoon recognition prior to the onset of penetration. These oligosaccharides have
