Developmental Dynamics, EarlyView.Abstract The sea anemone, Nematostella vectensis, has been used as a model organism in developmental biology studies for many years. This estuarine species has the notable capacity to regenerate its full body plan from small pieces throughout life. Nematostella have been described as having a great degree of cellular plasticity.

Symbiotic immuno-suppression: is disease susceptibility the price of bleaching resistance? [PDF]
PeerJ, 2018 Accelerating anthropogenic climate change threatens to destroy coral reefs worldwide through the processes of bleaching and disease. These major contributors to coral mortality are both closely linked with thermal stress intensified by anthropogenic ...

Enhancing quality of mental health service for veterans with seizures
Epilepsia, EarlyView.Abstract Psychiatric disorders are commonly identified in people with seizures (PWS). Comorbid mood, anxiety, and trauma‐ and stressor‐related disorders are highly prevalent and not consistently recognized or treated promptly. Veterans with seizures are particularly vulnerable to neuropsychiatric comorbidities, including a higher prevalence of ...

Antibacterial Property Of A Coral-Associated Bacterium Pseudoalteromonas Luteoviolacea Against Shrimp Pathogenic Vibrio Harveyi(In Vitro Study) [PDF]
, 2004 A coral-associated bacterium was successfully screened for secondary metabolites production based on PCR amplification of the non-ribosomal peptide synthetase gene and was identified as closely related to Pseudoalteromonas luteoviolacea based on its 16S ...

Review of articular cartilage repair techniques and their application in the horse
Equine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.Abstract Articular cartilage lesions represent a significant career‐limiting problem in athletic horses. A healthy articular cartilage surface is vital for optimal joint function, and defects can result in irreversible degenerative changes. Successful treatment of cartilage lesions remains a long‐standing challenge for orthopaedic surgeons, prompting ...

Coral bleaching responses in Sodwana Bay, South Africa [PDF]
, 2013 This study assessed the bleaching response (BR) of coral colonies within the central reef complex in Sodwana Bay, South Africa. Bleach surveys were conducted at 16 sites on 8 reefs over the period of 2007 to 2013. A total of 12 858 coral colonies from 30

Food Safety and Health, EarlyView.Planned harvesting and processing of marine macroalgae could meet future global food needs and mitigate fuel‐originated carbon dioxide responsible for climate change. Microalgal foods are nutritious and safe. The utilization of macroalgae would avoid environmental problems arising from the release of overgrowing macroalgae caused by heatwaves, which ...

Environmental Impact of Silicic Magmatism in Large Igneous Province Events
Geophysical Monograph Series, Page 133-151., 2021 Exploring the links between Large Igneous Provinces and dramatic environmental impact
An emerging consensus suggests that Large Igneous Provinces (LIPs) and Silicic LIPs (SLIPs) are a significant driver of dramatic global environmental and biological changes, including mass extinctions.
