De Novo Assembly of the Donkey White Blood Cell Transcriptome and a Comparative Analysis of Phenotype-Associated Genes between Donkeys and Horses. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
Prior to the mechanization of agriculture and labor-intensive tasks, humans used donkeys (Equus africanus asinus) for farm work and packing. However, as mechanization increased, donkeys have been increasingly raised for meat, milk, and fur in China.

Analysis of the Potential Molecular Mechanism of Donkey Bone Collagen Promoting Skin Wound Healing by High-throughput Sequencing

open access: yesShipin gongye ke-ji, 2022
To explore the effects of donkey bone collagen on the proliferation, migration and secretion of type I collagen of fibroblasts (NHDFs) and its possible signal pathways, the effects of donkey bone collagen on the proliferation and migration of fibroblasts

Coloration in Equine: Overview of Candidate Genes Associated with Coat Color Phenotypes

open access: yesAnimals
Variation in coat color among equids has attracted significant interest in genetics and breeding research. The range of colors is primarily determined by the type, concentration, and distribution of melanin pigments, with the balance between eumelanin ...

Elucidating the Role of Transcriptomic Networks and DNA Methylation in Collagen Deposition of Dezhou Donkey Skin

open access: yesAnimals
DNA methylation represents a predominant epigenetic modification with broad implications in various biological functions. Its role is particularly significant in the process of collagen deposition, a fundamental aspect of dermal development in donkeys ...

Semantic Unification A sheaf theoretic approach to natural language [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Language is contextual and sheaf theory provides a high level mathematical framework to model contextuality. We show how sheaf theory can model the contextual nature of natural language and how gluing can be used to provide a global semantics for a ...

Differentiation of primate primordial germ cell-like cells following transplantation into the adult gonadal niche. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
A major challenge in stem cell differentiation is the availability of bioassays to prove cell types generated in vitro are equivalent to cells in vivo. In the mouse, differentiation of primordial germ cell-like cells (PGCLCs) from pluripotent cells was ...

Mule trains to mountain roads: the role of working mules in supporting resilient communities in the Himalayas

open access: yesFrontiers in Veterinary Science
Working equids play a central role in mountainous communities, but their work often goes unnoticed by the wider world, with sparse documentation of their role, value, or welfare – a state which often extends to their human counterparts.

Urocortin 3 marks mature human primary and embryonic stem cell-derived pancreatic alpha and beta cells. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The peptide hormone Urocortin 3 (Ucn 3) is abundantly and exclusively expressed in mouse pancreatic beta cells where it regulates insulin secretion. Here we demonstrate that Ucn 3 first appears at embryonic day (E) 17.5 and, from approximately postnatal ...

Transrectal ultrasonography of the adrenal glands in donkeys (Equus asinus) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Little information is available for medical imaging in donkeys and no report about adrenal glands ultrasonography can be found in scientific literature. The feasibility of transrectal ultrasonography of the adrenal glands was tested on 30 healthy donkeys

The Roles of Membrane Rafts in CD32A-Mediated Phagocytosis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Membrane rafts are highly dynamic heterogeneous sterol- and sphingolipid-rich micro-domains on cell surfaces. They are generally believed to provide residency for cell surface molecules (e.g., adhesion and signaling molecules) and scaffolding to ...
