Tau Aggregate Imaging and Transcriptomics of Alzheimer's Disease Brain at Different Stages of Disease

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The protein aggregates and gene expression in the middle temporal gyrus (MTG) and somatosensory cortex (SOM) of the postmortem brains of 13 Alzheimer's disease patients were studied in detail, revealing that small hyperphosphorylated tau aggregates increase with Braak stage driven by microglial inflammation.

Calf performance in a cow-driven cow-calf contact system: Effect of 2 methods to gradually reduce cows' access to their calf

Journal of Dairy Science
: Knowledge is lacking on separation strategies that can best prepare calves to final separation from the dam in cow-calf contact (CCC) systems. This controlled trial compared the effects of 2 different methods to gradually reduce cows' access to their ...

A Gut‐Brain Axis Underlying Succinate‐Associated Compulsive‐Like Behavior

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Gut‐derived succinate is associated with an excitatory‐inhibitory imbalance in dmPFC glutamatergic neurons, involving microglial SUCNR1 activation and vagal afferent signaling via upregulated gut 5‐HT4 receptors along the DVC‐CeA‐dmPFC circuit, changes that are linked to excessive compulsive‐like behavior.

Merowe Dam and the inundation of paleochannels of the Nile [PDF]

, 2010
The course of the Nile in northern Sudan follows a contorted path through bedrocks, creating the Great Bend. Few years ago, the satellite images showed a fertile strip of land with villages, where paleochannels of the river hosted many fields with ...

Current Status and Challenges of Imaging‐Based Diagnosis of Lymph Node Metastasis in Colon Cancer: The Lymph Node Committee of the Japanese Society for Cancer of the Colon and Rectum

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
This review of the status and challenges of diagnosis of lymph node metastasis in colon cancer suggests that it is currently difficult to establish strict criteria for lymph node metastasis, indicating only moderate diagnostic performance. ABSTRACT Background Accurate pre‐treatment evaluation of lymph node metastasis (LNM) in colon cancer is important ...

Colonization of a temperate river by mobile fish following habitat reconnection

Ecosphere, 2023
Mobile species are particularly affected by artificial barriers requiring large investments to restore connectivity. However, few large‐scale, long‐term studies have investigated the ecological outcomes of restoring connectivity for these species.
