FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Obesity raises blood levels of PAI‐1, a protein linked to metabolic dysfunction‐associated steatotic liver disease in people with obesity. In female mice fed a high‐fat diet, partially lowering PAI‐1 led to smaller subcutaneous fat cells and lower liver cholesterol, without changing body weight or insulin sensitivity.

Simultaneous failure of two sex-allocation invariants : implications for sex-ratio variation within and between populations [PDF]
, 2015 This research was supported by Wolfson College Cambridge (A.M.M.R.) and the Natural Environment Research Council (grant no. NE/K009524/1) (A.G.).Local mate competition (LMC) occurs when male relatives compete for mating opportunities, and may favour the ...

Sex Determination of Superorder Neognathae (class Aves) by Molecular Genetics Methods
Scientific Papers Animal Science and Biotechnologies, 2023 The aim of this study was optimization molecular genetic method for sex determination of superorder Neognathae from class Aves. The basis of the molecular-genetic methods was the amplification of a chromo-helicase DNA binding 1 (CHD) gene region, which ...

G3: Genes, Genomes, Genetics, 2018 The fern Ceratopteris richardii is an important model for studies of sex determination and gamete differentiation in homosporous plants. Here we use RNA-seq to de novo assemble a transcriptome and identify genes differentially expressed in young ...

Tumour–host interactions in Drosophila: mechanisms in the tumour micro‐ and macroenvironment
Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.This review examines how tumour–host crosstalk takes place at multiple levels of biological organisation, from local cell competition and immune crosstalk to organism‐wide metabolic and physiological collapse. Here, we integrate findings from Drosophila melanogaster studies that reveal conserved mechanisms through which tumours hijack host systems to ...

Conflict over condition-dependent sex allocation can lead to mixed sex-determination systems [PDF]
, 2014 Theory suggests that genetic conflicts drive turnovers between sex-determining mechanisms, yet these studies only apply to cases where sex allocation is independent of environment or condition.

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.In this explorative study, the abundance of circular RNA molecules in bone marrow stem cells was found to be elevated in patients with high‐risk myelodysplastic neoplasms, and to be associated with an increased risk of progression to acute myeloid leukemia.
