Tumor Shape-Specific Brachytherapy Implants by 3D-Printing, Precision Radioactivity Painting, and Biomedical Imaging. [PDF]

open access: yesAdv Healthc Mater, 2023
Additive manufacturing of a hard and biocompatible polymer such as polyetheretherketone allows the fabrication of anatomically relevant applicators for brachytherapy (internal radiotherapy), and the application of radioactivity on these implants according to different patterns allows to modulate the energy dose profiles delivered to tumors.

Cranial osteology of Hypoptophis (Aparallactinae: Atractaspididae: Caenophidia), with a discussion on the evolution of its fossorial adaptations. [PDF]

open access: yesJ Morphol, 2022
We have thoroughly described the cranial osteology and inner ear of Hypoptophis wilsonii—the first μCT‐based description of the aspects of cephalic anatomy of any snake belonging to subfamily Aparallactinae. The skull bones and the inner ear of this species are adapted for burrowing, with many of these adaptations characterizing other aparallactines ...

Osteology of the enigmatic threadsnake species Epictia unicolor and Trilepida guayaquilensis (Serpentes, Leptotyphlopidae) with generic insights

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, Volume 304, Issue 10, Page 2183-2197, October 2021., 2021
Abstract Since the rearrangement of all leptotyphlopid species previously known as “Leptotyphlops” in Adalsteinsson et al. (2009)'s paper, several taxa have remained untested regarding their generic identity and have been assigned to different genera based on phenotypic data or, in some cases, without any clear justification.

Limb reduction in squamate reptiles correlates with the reduction of the chondrocranium: A case study on serpentiform anguids

open access: yesDevelopmental Dynamics, Volume 250, Issue 9, Page 1300-1317, September 2021., 2021
Abstract Background In vertebrates, the skull evolves from a complex network of dermal bones and cartilage—the latter forming the pharyngeal apparatus and the chondrocranium. Squamates are particularly important in this regard as they maintain at least part of the chondrocranium throughout their whole ontogeny until adulthood.

Micropropagation of Bioencapsulation and Ultrastructural Features of Sainfoin (Onobrychis viciifolia) Grown In Vivo and In Vitro

open access: yesThe Scientific World Journal, Volume 2014, Issue 1, 2014., 2014
To explore the potential of in vitro rapid regeneration, three varieties (Golpaygan‐181, Orumieh‐1763, and Gorgan‐1601) of sainfoin (Onobrychis viciifolia Scop. syn. Onobrychis sativa L.) were evaluated. For the first time, an encapsulation protocol was established from somatic embryogenic callus in torpedo and cotyledonary stages to create artificial ...

The Inter‐Cratonic Neoproterozoic Katangan Basin of Central Africa: Rift Basin Formation, Orogenic Inversion and Potential Fluid Pathways

open access: yesTectonics, Volume 44, Issue 7, July 2025.
Abstract The tectono‐stratigraphic development of continental basins is critical to an understanding of continental tectonics and the formation of metal deposits. The Neoproterozoic, inter‐cratonic Katangan copper basin of Central Africa records a tectono‐stratigraphic evolution and the generation of potential metal transporting fluid pathways ...
