Synchrony of plant cellular circadian clocks with heterogeneous properties under light/dark cycles

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2017
Individual cells in a plant can work independently as circadian clocks, and their properties are the basis of various circadian phenomena. The behaviour of individual cellular clocks in Lemna gibba was orderly under 24-h light/dark cycles despite their ...

Expression and Purification of Cyanobacterial Circadian Clock Protein KaiC and Determination of Its Auto-phosphatase Activity

open access: yesBio-Protocol, 2017
Circadian rhythms are biological processes displaying an endogenous oscillation with a period of ~24 h. They allow organisms to anticipate and get prepared for the environmental changes caused mainly by the rotation of Earth. Circadian rhythms are driven

The Role of TASK-3 Two-Pore Domain Potassium Channels in the Entrainment of Mammalian Circadian Rhythms [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
In mammals light is the principal timing cue for alignment of physiology to the external environment. Illumination from the unrelenting 24-hour day-night cycle enters the biological system and is communicated to the master pacemaker, the suprachiasmatic

Animal models in molecular biology research: Challenges, ethical imperatives, and the path to human‐relevant translation

open access: yesAnimal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
The graphical abstract shows how molecular biology research has shifted from using traditional animal models toward using methods that are more relevant to humans. It points out the main problems, differences between species, difficulty in reproducing results, moral issues, and lack of infrastructure that make translational accuracy harder to achieve ...

Auditory Stimulation of Slow‐Wave Sleep Promotes Recovery after Brain Injury in an Animal Model

open access: yesAnnals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Objective Traumatic brain injury (TBI) significantly reduces the quality of life for millions of survivors worldwide, causing persistent brain tissue damage and cognitive impairments, with no established therapeutic interventions currently available.

Dual‐Channel Interdigitated Aptamer‐Based Sensors for Rapid Small‐Molecule Detection in Biofluids

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie International Edition, EarlyView.
An electrochemical aptamer sensing chip employs dual interdigitated electrodes and selective self‐assembled monolayer removal to convert small‐molecule recognition into robust “signal‐off/on” responses. This dual‐channel signal conversion minimizes background noise and accelerates probe diffusion, enabling rapid (as fast as 5–30 min), low‐volume ...

Light and the Human Circadian Clock

open access: yes, 2013
The circadian clock can only reliably fulfil its function if it is stably entrained. Most clocks use the light-dark cycle as environmental signal (zeitgeber) for this active synchronisation. How we think about clock function and entrainment has been strongly influenced by the early concepts of the field's pioneers, and the astonishing finding that ...

Real‐time monitoring of root dielectric properties for assessing crop plant damage caused by foliar application of glyphosate

open access: yesApplications in Plant Sciences, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise There is a knowledge gap regarding how foliar injury and restricted water uptake can be detected by measuring root dielectric response. This pot study nondestructively evaluated the efficiency of real‐time dielectric measurement to monitor the effects of glyphosate spraying.

Gut Health in Ostriches (Struthio camelus): Insights Into Intestinal Structure, Functions, Microbiome, and Improvement Strategies

open access: yesAnimal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
Our paper systematically reviews the intestinal structure, function, and microbiota of ostriches, along with strategies for improving their gut health. We analyze how these factors collectively influence intestinal homeostasis and ostrich welfare, emphasizing probiotics as a promising intervention to enhance gut health, boost population well‐being, and
