Optimizing stallion semen dilution based on hydrogen ion index [PDF]

open access: yesBIO Web of Conferences
The dependence of the results on the individual qualities of stallion semen is very high, which is an obstacle to the wider use of the cryopreservation method in practice.

Genetic Diversity in the Modern Horse Illustrated from Genome-Wide SNP Data

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
Horses were domesticated from the Eurasian steppes 5,000–6,000 years ago. Since then, the use of horses for transportation, warfare, and agriculture, as well as selection for desired traits and fitness, has resulted in diverse populations distributed ...

Development of Heat Engines Powered by Twisted and Coiled Polymer Fiber Actuators

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Continuously rotating engines driven by thermally responsive actuating materials can turn waste heat into useful energy. For the first time heat engines operated by twisted and coiled polymer fiber actuators are demonstrated with engine design guided by two simple analytical models.

Analysis of horse genomes provides insight into the diversification and adaptive evolution of karyotype

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2014
Karyotypic diversification is more prominent in Equus species than in other mammals. Here, using next generation sequencing technology, we generated and de novo assembled quality genomes sequences for a male wild horse (Przewalski's horse) and a male ...

Gait Analysis of Pak Biawak: A Necrobot Lizard Built using the Skeleton of an Asian Water Monitor (Varanus Salvator)

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Pak Biawak, a necrobot, embodies an unusual fusion of biology and robotics. Designed to repurpose natural structures after death, it challenges conventional boundaries between nature and engineering. Its movements are precise yet unsettling, raising questions about sustainability, ethics, and the untapped potential of biointegrated machines.

Allosteric Modulation of Pathological Ataxin‐3 Aggregation: A Path to Spinocerebellar Ataxia Type‐3 Therapies

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study uncovers a new allosteric site in the Josephin domain of ataxin‐3 targeted by the molecular tweezer CLR01, which modulates protein aggregation, improves synaptic function in neuronal cells, and delays motor dysfunction in animal models.

Identification of PKN2 and MOB4 as Coordinators of Collective Cell Migration

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Through a genetic screen, PKN2 and MOB4 are identified as two proteins regulating the healing of an epithelial model wound. PKN2 promotes collective cell migration by maintaining the cohesion of cell monolayers from their lateral junctions, whereas MOB4 restrains collective cell migration and provides a lamellipodial cue for front‐rear polarity in ...

Antibiofilm Effect of Octenidine Hydrochloride on Staphylococcus aureus, MRSA and VRSA

open access: yesPathogens, 2014
Millions of indwelling devices are implanted in patients every year, and staphylococci (S. aureus, MRSA and vancomycin-resistant S. aureus (VRSA)) are responsible for a majority of infections associated with these devices, thereby leading to treatment ...
