Arabidopsis HAP2/GCS1 is a gamete fusion protein homologous to somatic and viral fusogens

bioRxiv, 2016
Cell-cell fusion is inherent to any form of sexual reproduction. Loss of HAPLESS 2/GENERATIVE CELL SPECIFIC 1 (HAP2/GCS1) proteins results in gamete fusion failure in different organisms but their exact role is unclear. Here we show that Arabidopsis HAP2/

Bridging maternal effects and epitranscriptomics: A novel perspective in developmental biology

Developmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Maternal effects, encompassing both genetic (maternally expressed gene products) and non‐genetic (maternal state) influences, are powerful determinants of offspring phenotype, yet their RNA‐level mechanisms remain incompletely resolved. In parallel, epitranscriptomics, an emerging field centered on chemical modifications to RNA, has revealed ...

Causal correlations between inflammatory proteins and heart failure: A two‐sample Mendelian randomization analysis

ESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 1374-1385, April 2025.
Abstract Aims Inflammation plays a critical role in both the development and progression of heart failure (HF), which is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. However, the causality between specific inflammation‐related proteins and HF risk remains unclear.

A multicountry, multicenter report to identify nutritional risks in female populations using the FIGO Nutrition Checklist

International Journal of Gynecology &Obstetrics, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective To identify potential nutritional risks for women using the FIGO Nutrition Checklist in relation to region, age and pregnancy/intention. Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted using 1515 responses from the online version of the FIGO Nutrition Checklist available on the FIGO website. Participants who responded “No” to at least

Improvement of gamete quality by stimulating and feeding the endogenous antioxidant system: mechanisms, clinical results, insights on gene-environment interactions and the role of diet

Journal of Assisted Reproduction and Genetics, 2016
Oxidative damage triggers extensive repair in gametes and thereafter in the zygote but it results in clinically relevant damage when affecting the maturation of the gametes chromatin, i.e. padlocking and epigenetic marking.

Organoids and organ‐on‐a‐chip models for investigating the pathophysiology of the human reproductive system

Interdisciplinary Medicine, EarlyView.
Organoids and organ‐on‐a‐chips are advancing reproductive system research. In the female reproductive system, applications include cancer organoid models, placental chips, and hormone simulation models. For the male reproductive system, research focuses on drug resistance mechanisms, co‐culture platforms, and infertility studies. These refined in vitro

Effects of 17α‐Ethinylestradiol on Development and Gonadal Differentiation in the Estuarine Mummichog, Fundulus heteroclitus

Journal of Experimental Zoology Part A: Ecological and Integrative Physiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In fish, sex determination and gonadal development are controlled by various genetic and environmental factors. In this study, experiments were conducted on the estuarine mummichog (Fundulus heteroclitus) to investigate gonadal differentiation following exposure to the synthetic estrogen, 17α‐ethinylestradiol (EE2).

Environmental Risk Assessment and Anti‐Corrosion Efficacy of Safe‐by‐Design Nitrite‐Based Nanomaterials for Maritime Applications

Nano Select, EarlyView.
The environmental behavior and impact of anti‐corrosion nanoadditives, ZnAl‐NO2 and MgAl‐NO2 layered double hydroxides (LDH), are assessed under marine conditions. These nanomaterials show instability in water but exhibit no or low toxicity to most tested marine species.

A survey of community opinion and perceptions toward gamete donation in north central Nigeria

Nigerian Journal of Medicine, 2020
Background: Gamete donation supports in vitro fertilization services. Donation of gametes began in the developed world in 1884, but there is no documentation of when it started in Nigeria. The donors may be sourced from the community where such services
