GHRHR Deficiency Enhances Retinal Ganglion Cell Survival and Visual Functions in Experimental Glaucoma by Inhibiting Ferroptosis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Glaucoma, a major cause of blindness, involves retinal ganglion cell (RGC) degeneration. This study shows growth hormone‐releasing hormone receptor (GHRHR) deficiency preserves RGC survival and restores vision, unlike activation which only aids survival.

Growth and grazing rates of a freshwater heterotrich ciliate Stentor roeselii on algal preys

, 2006
A heterotrich ciliate Stentor roeselii was isolated from Pal’tang reservoir in Korea and the strain was maintained successfully in laboratory. The optimal temperature and pH for S. roeselii growth were 25∼30 ℃ and pH 7∼9.

Spatiotemporal Control of Formation of Dynamic Protein Fiber Assemblies via Photophysical Effects of a Focused Laser Beam

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Tightly focused laser irradiation can accumulate tubulin proteins at/around the laser focus, which leads to the formation of highly ordered microtubule assemblies. The assemblies can exhibit various dynamic behaviors such as radial motion, bundling, and flagella‐like rotation with motor protein and chemical energy, highlighting as a unique tool for ...

Putative DNA-dependent RNA polymerase in Mitochondrial Plasmid of Paramecium caudatum Stock GT704

Hayati Journal of Biosciences, 2015
Mitochondria of Paramecium caudatum stock GT704 has a set of four kinds of linear plasmids with sizes of 8.2, 4.1, 2.8 and 1.4 kb. The plasmids of 8.2 and 2.8 kb exist as dimers consisting of 4.1- and 1.4-kb monomers, respectively.

Isolation and characterization of bacterial strains from a consortium associated to the Antarctic ciliate Euplotes focardii

, 2015
Ciliate (Alveolata,Ciliophora) possess a diverse association of symbiotic bacteria. They can be presenta s endosymbionts or localized in the outer as ectosymbionts. In a previous study we reported the characterization of a bacterial consortium associated

Single‐Cell Annotation and Localization via Integrating Spatial Transcriptomics Maps the Mouse Ocular Atlas and RAO Dynamics

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
We developed the ASCAL pipeline, integrating complementary spatial transcriptomics, to construct a high‐fidelity mouse whole‐eye single‐cell atlas. Applying ASCAL to a retinal artery occlusion (RAO) model revealed spatially restricted immune activation localized to the ganglion cell layer and the selective depletion of a translationally active, outer ...

Detection and functional analysis of horizontal gene transfer events in the ciliate Euplotes

Frontiers in Microbiology
BackgroundHorizontal gene transfer (HGT), the movement of heritable materials between distantly related organisms, is a key evolutionary force shaping eukaryotic genomes. Euplotes are free-living unicellular eukaryotes belonging to the phylum Ciliophora,

Morphology and morphogenesis of a novel stylonychid ciliate from India [PDF]

, 2018
The morphology and morphogenesis of a novel stylonychid ciliate isolated from a water sample collected from the Thane Creek, Mumbai, India, were investigated. The new species looked similar in morphology to the well known Tetmemena pustulata, however,

Expanded Hepatic Progenitor Cells Featured with Aggregation of α‐Synuclein Contribute to Pathologic Bile Duct Regeneration in Biliary Atresia

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Expanded NCAM1+EpCAM+ hepatic progenitor cells in biliary atresia are characterized by aggregation of α‐synuclein. This pathological protein potentiates cellular susceptibility to GSH‐dependent redox dyshomeostasis, induces unstable biliary cell fate specification, and subsequently drives aberrant biliary regeneration.
