Astrocytic Mitochondria Transplantation Rescues Neuron Loss and Dendritic Injuries in Acute Cerebral Ischemic Stroke Mouse Model by Flexibly Regulating Mitochondria Dynamics

open access: yesAnnals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Objective Cerebral ischemic stroke causes neuronal oxygen/energy deprivation, disrupting mitochondrial function including reduced membrane potential and bioenergetics, exacerbating neuronal injury. Mitochondrial defects are, therefore, a central neuropathological node and potential therapeutic target.

Linking density, productivity and trends of an endangered species: The Bonelli's eagle in Spain [PDF]

open access: yesActa Oecologica, 2009
Whether regional population density is a good indicator of environmental quality according to demographic variables such as breeding success or short-term population trends is controversial. In this paper we analyze the interrelationships among regional population density, breeding success and recent population trends of an endangered species, Bonelli ...

Synthesis and Characterization of Ag–Fe Bimetallic Nanoparticles and Nanocomposites (Alloys and Core–Shells) for Photocatalytic Degradation of Bromophenol Blue Dye Using Grewia optiva Leaf Extract

open access: yesAsia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Ag–Fe bimetallic nanoparticles (alloy and core–shell structures) were synthesized using Grewia optiva leaf extract through a green, phytochemical‐mediated approach. The effects of pH, temperature, extract concentration, and Ag:Fe molar ratio on nanoparticle formation were systematically optimized, enabling size‐controlled and morphologically ...

Variation in parrot jaw musculature

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Interspecific morphological differences in some superficial jaw muscles of parrots. Abstract Psittaciformes, the order encompassing parrots and their relatives, are highly diverse and generally known for having a strong beaks used for multiple behaviors. The muscles related to the masticatory apparatus should reflect this functional complexity; however,

Functional models from limited data: A parametric and multimodal approach to anatomy and 3D kinematics of feeding in basking sharks (Cetorhinus maximus)

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Basking sharks, Cetorhinus maximus (Gunnerus, Brugden [Squalus maximus], Det Kongelige Norske Videnskabers Selskabs Skrifter, 1765, vol. 3, pp. 33–49), feed by gaping their mouths and gill slits, greatly reorienting their cranial skeletons to filter food from water.
