Categorizing experience-based foraging plasticity in mites: age dependency, primacy effects and memory persistence [PDF]

Royal Society Open Science, 2018
Behavioural plasticity can be categorized into activational (also termed contextual) and developmental plasticity. Activational plasticity allows immediate contextual behavioural changes, whereas developmental plasticity is characterized by time-lagged ...

The conceptual structure of evolutionary biology: A framework from phenotypic plasticity [PDF]

, 2018
In this review, I approach the role of phenotypic plasticity as a key aspect of the conceptual framework of evolutionary biology. The concept of phenotypic plasticity is related to other relevant concepts of contemporary research in ...

Coordinated optimization of visual cortical maps (II) Numerical studies [PDF]

, 2012
It is an attractive hypothesis that the spatial structure of visual cortical architecture can be explained by the coordinated optimization of multiple visual cortical maps representing orientation preference (OP), ocular dominance (OD), spatial frequency,

Developmental defects in planarian hatchlings (Platyhelminthes: Rhabditophora) [PDF]

Zoologia (Curitiba)
Developmental plasticity of the planarians is well-illustrated by whole-body regeneration from any tissue fragments and body size scaling regulated by food intake.

Intertwined Signaling Pathways Governing Tooth Development: A Give-and-Take Between Canonical Wnt and Shh

Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2021
Teeth play essential roles in life. Their development relies on reciprocal interactions between the ectoderm-derived dental epithelium and the underlying neural crest-originated mesenchyme.

Effects of environmental perturbations during postnatal development on the phenotypic integration of the skull [PDF]

, 2011
Integration and modularity are fundamental determinants of how natural selection effects evolutionary change in complex multivariate traits. Interest in the study of the specific developmental basis of integration through experimental approaches is ...

Bifurcation in epigenetics: implications in development, proliferation and diseases

, 2014
Cells often exhibit different and stable phenotypes from the same DNA sequence. Robustness and plasticity of such cellular states are controlled by diverse transcriptional and epigenetic mechanisms, among them the modification of biochemical marks on ...

Feasibility and Preliminary Efficacy of Integrative Neuromuscular Training for Childhood Cancer Survivors: A Pilot Study

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Survivors of childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) often exhibit early deficits in muscle and movement competence, which can compromise long‐term health. Integrative neuromuscular training (INT), a multifaceted approach combining fundamental movement activities with strength exercises, may help address these deficits during ...

Single-cell transcriptome atlas of male mouse pituitary across postnatal life highlighting its stem cell landscape

iScience
Summary: The pituitary represents the master gland governing the endocrine system. We constructed a single-cell (sc) transcriptomic atlas of male mouse endocrine pituitary by incorporating existing and new data, spanning important postnatal ages in both ...
