A Histological Study of the Skin of the Dorsal and Ventral Areas of the Flounder Boleophthalmus dussumieri (Teleostei: Oxudercidae) in Khor Musa (Northwest of the Persian Gulf) [PDF]
Mudskippers are members of the Oxudercidae family and are amphibious fishes that are able to spend long periods out of water. In the present study, Boleophthalmus dussumieri was sampled from Petroshimi and Jafari stations.

Fingertip skin models for analysis of the haptic perception of textiles [PDF]
This paper presents finite element models of the fingertip skin which have been created to simulate the contact of textile objects with the skin to gain a better understanding of the perception of textiles through the skin, the so-called hand of textiles.

Positive physiological benefits of several plant oils on the UV-induced photoaging have been reported in some cell lines and model mice, but perilla oil collected from the seeds of Perilla frutescens L. has not been investigated in this context. To study

Tissues contain diverse cell populations that, together, make up physiologically functional units. A remarkable example is the animal epidermis, where neuronal and non-neuronal cells intermingle to allow somatosensory perception.

Ceramides, which derive from the hydrolysis of glucosylceramide (GlcCer), are the predominant lipid species in the stratum corneum and are critical for epidermal permeability barrier homeostasis. UDP-glucose:ceramide glucosyltransferase (GlcCer synthase)

Epidermal keratinocytes are enriched with at least nine connexins that are key regulators of epidermal homeostasis. The role of Cx30.3 in keratinocytes and epidermal health became evident when fourteen autosomal dominant mutations in the Cx30.3-encoding ...

The homeodomain protein PAL-1 specifies a lineage-specific regulatory network in the C. elegans embryo [PDF]
Maternal and zygotic activities of the homeodomain protein PAL-1 specify the identity and maintain the development of the multipotent C blastomere lineage in the C. elegans embryo. To identify PAL-1 regulatory target genes, we used microarrays to compare

The Biology of Varicella-Zoster Virus Replication in the Skin
The replication of varicella-zoster virus (VZV) in skin is critical to its pathogenesis and spread. Primary infection causes chickenpox, which is characterised by centrally distributed skin blistering lesions that are rich in infectious virus.

Determination of biosorption mechanism in biomass of agave, using spectroscopic and microscopic techniques for the purification of contaminated water [PDF]
[Abstract] Lead (Pb2+) and copper (Cu2+) are polluting metals due to their toxicity; however, the extraction of these metals is essential for economic development, so it is important to look for efficient and low-cost alternatives that can remove heavy ...

Acceleration of Skin Wound-Healing Reactions by Autologous Micrograft Tissue Suspension
Background and objectives: Skin grafting is a method usually used in reconstructive surgery to accelerate skin regeneration. This method results frequently in unexpected scar formations. We previously showed that cutaneous wound-healing in normal mice is
