Occurrence of LINE, gypsy-like, and copia-like retrotransposons in the clonally propagated sweet potato (Ipomoea batatas L.) [PDF]
Retrotransposons are a class of transposable elements that represent a major fraction of the repetitive DNA of most eukaryotes. Their abundance stems from their expansive replication strategies.

Piezo1 and Gq/G11 promote endothelial inflammation depending on flow pattern and integrin activation
The vascular endothelium is constantly exposed to mechanical forces, including fluid shear stress exerted by the flowing blood. Endothelial cells can sense different flow patterns and convert the mechanical signal of laminar flow into atheroprotective ...

Neckties and Cerebrovascular Reactivity in Young Healthy Males: A Pilot Randomised Crossover Trial
Background. A necktie may elevate intracranial pressure through compression of venous return. We hypothesised that a tight necktie would deleteriously alter cerebrovascular reactivity. Materials and Methods.

Small-scale bioacoustic sensors, such as antennae in insects, are often considered, biomechanically, to be not much more than the sum of their basic geometric features.

An X-ray/SDSS sample (II): outflowing gas plasma properties [PDF]
Galaxy-scale outflows are nowadays observed in many active galactic nuclei (AGNs); however, their characterisation in terms of (multi-) phase nature, amount of flowing material, effects on the host galaxy, is still unsettled.

Early Focal Segmental Glomerulosclerosis as a Cause of Renal Allograft Primary Nonfunction
Background. Primary focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS) is one of the commonest causes of glomerular disease and if left untreated will often progress to established renal failure.

The White Dwarfs within 25 Parsecs of the Sun: Kinematics and Spectroscopic Subtypes [PDF]
We present the fractional distribution of spectroscopic subtypes, range and distribution of surface temperatures, and kinematical properties of the white dwarfs within 25pc of the sun.

Commuting involutions of Lie algebras, commuting varieties, and simple Jordan algebras [PDF]
We study certain "\sigma-commuting varieties" associated with a pair of commuting involutions of a semisimple Lie algebra $\g$. The usual commuting variety of $\g$ and commuting varieties related to one involution are particular cases of our construction.
