International Biological Flora: Trapa natans†
Journal of Ecology, Volume 112, Issue 10, Page 2386-2420, October 2024.The water caltrop (Trapa natans L.) was once widely distributed in its native range, but is in some part (i.e. Europe) nowadays very rare, highly threatened and of conservation concern for still unknown reasons. It has been introduced beyond its native range (e.g.

Journal of Biomedical Materials Research Part A, Volume 112, Issue 8, Page 1286-1304, August 2024.Abstract Cardiovascular disease (CVD) remains to be the leading cause of death globally today and therefore the need for the development of novel therapies has become increasingly important in the cardiovascular field. The mechanism(s) behind the pathophysiology of CVD have been laboriously investigated in both stem cell and bioengineering laboratories.

Type V collagen from macrophages regulates initial collagen assembly and alignment in post-infarcted hearts [PDF]
Previous work has revealed that macrophages directly contribute collagen to the fibrotic scar in the injured hearts of zebrafish and mice. However, the functional impact of this contribution has not been investigated.

Evolutionary Applications, Volume 17, Issue 6, June 2024.Abstract As an invaluable Chinese sheep germplasm resource, Hu sheep are renowned for their high fertility and beautiful wavy lambskins. Their distinctive characteristics have evolved over time through a combination of artificial and natural selection. Identifying selection signatures in Hu sheep can provide a straightforward insight into the mechanism

A study of intermediate filament formation using retrovirus-mediated gene transfer [PDF]
, 1991 Keratin filament formation is known to require the simultaneous presence of both type I and type II keratin proteins; type I and type II keratins are coexpressed in vivo as specific pairs, whose functions are unclear.
