Abstract Background Mouse nodal immotile cilia mechanically sense the bending direction for left–right (L–R) determination and activate the left‐side‐specific signaling cascade, leading to increased Nodal activity. Asymmetric distribution of Pkd2, a crucial channel for L–R determination, on immotile cilia has been reported recently. However, the causal

Zooplankton act as cruise ships promoting the survival and pathogenicity of pathogenic bacteria
Abstract Bacteria in general interact with zooplankton in aquatic ecosystems. These zooplankton–bacterial interactions help to shape the bacterial community by regulating bacterial abundances. Such interactions are even more significant and crucially in need of investigation in the case of pathogenic bacteria, which cause severe diseases in humans and ...

Spatiotemporal distribution of neural crest cells in the common wall lizard Podarcis muralis
Abstract Background Neural crest cells (NCCs) are migratory embryonic stem cells that give rise to a diverse set of cell types. Here we describe the dynamic distribution of NCCs in developing embryos of the common wall lizard Podarcis muralis inferred from 10 markers.

Gender diversities and sex education
Abstract This article suggests that science‐based understandings of sex and gender can improve sex education by inviting students to consider what sex and gender mean and by encouraging recognition and respect in a gender‐diverse context. In addition, decolonising approaches to gender provide another route to sexuality education that is more attendant ...

Cilia are antenna-like organelles protruding from the surface of many cell types in the human body. Defects in ciliary structure or function often lead to diseases that are collectively called ciliopathies.

Abstract Due to the limited regenerative capacity in adult mammals, the loss of vestibular hair cells (HCs) leads to balance disorders. In this study, we chronologically reprogrammed adult vestibular supporting cells (SCs) via bimodal regulation of Notch signaling, mimicking dynamic changes in Notch signaling during inner ear development. We found that

Sweet Femininities: Women and the Confectionery Trade in Eighteenth‐Century Barcelona
Abstract This article examines the intersections between sweetness, femininity and the confectionery trade in eighteenth‐century Barcelona, at a time of growing consumption of sugar and slavery. Drawing on a range of underexplored archival material, this study traces the stories of women of different social groups, namely, elite housewives, nuns and ...
