Cellular distribution of estrogen receptors alpha in the rabbit ovary during pregnancy and lactation [PDF]

Scientific Reports
Pregnancy and lactation is a critical period for rabbit production. Estrogen (E2) and estrogen receptors alpha (ERA) are essential during pregnancy and lactation and their importance stems from their role in ovarian activities. Despite extensive research

Ontogeny of RSPO1, FOXL2, and RUNX1 during ovarian differentiation in the marsupial tammar wallaby. [PDF]

Dev Dyn
Abstract Background RSPO1 and FOXL2 are female sex‐determining genes involved in the differentiation and organization of the ovary in some eutherian mammals. Mutations or loss of function of these genes are associated with partial to full sex reversal in mice, humans, and goats.

Immunolocalization of matrix polysaccharides during wood decay by white rot fungus: evidence for specific interaction between hemicellulose and lignin in the wood fibre cell wall of Dalbergia sissoo Roxb [PDF]

Frontiers in Plant Science
Alterations in the structure and chemistry of cell wall polymers during wood decay by white-rot fungi could be one of the best experimental systems to studying the association between different cell wall polymers and the biology of plant-microbe ...

Protective activity of galacto-oligosaccharides against intestinal damage and inflammation induced by enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli F4+ and evaluation of prebiotic potential [PDF]

Frontiers in Veterinary Science
Post-weaning diarrhea in piglets is frequently caused by enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli (ETEC) F4+. The objective of this study was to examine the possible protective effect of galacto-oligosaccharides (GOS) on ETEC F4+-induced intestinal injury ...

Schistosoma mansoni Fibroblast Growth Factor Receptor A Orchestrates Multiple Functions in Schistosome Biology and in the Host-Parasite Interplay

Frontiers in Immunology, 2022
Stem cells play significant roles in driving the complex life cycle of Schistosoma mansoni. Fibroblast growth factor (FGF) receptor A (SmFGFRA) is essential for maintaining the integrity of schistosome stem cells.

Cry4Aa and Cry4Ba Mosquito-Active Toxins Utilize Different Domains in Binding to a Particular Culex ALP Isoform: A Functional Toxin Receptor Implicating Differential Actions on Target Larvae

Toxins, 2022
The three-domain Cry4Aa toxin produced from Bacillus thuringiensis subsp. israelensis was previously shown to be much more toxic to Culex mosquito larvae than its closely related toxin—Cry4Ba.

Immunolocalization and role of an olfactory co-receptor in chemosensory organs of Aedes albopictus [PDF]

Archives of Biological Sciences, 2015
An olfactory co-receptor gene AalbOrco was isolated and described from Aedes albopictus using the RACE technique. AalbOrco contained typical structures of seven transmembrane domains and Nin-Cout.

General Patterns and Species-Specific Differences in the Organization of the Tubulin Cytoskeleton in Indeterminate Nodules of Three Legumes

Cells, 2021
The tubulin cytoskeleton plays an important role in establishing legume–rhizobial symbiosis at all stages of its development. Previously, tubulin cytoskeleton organization was studied in detail in the indeterminate nodules of two legume species, Pisum ...

Identification and Characterization of α-Actinin 1 of Histomonas meleagridis and Its Potential Vaccine Candidates against Histomonosis

Animals, 2023
Histomonas meleagridis is a protozoan parasite that causes histomonosis in gallinaceous birds such as turkeys and chickens. Since the banning and restricted usage of effective drugs such as nitarsone, 80–100% morbidity and mortality occur in turkeys and ...

Root ABA Accumulation Delays Lateral Root Emergence in Osmotically Stressed Barley Plants by Decreasing Root Primordial IAA Accumulation

International Journal of Plant Biology, 2023
Increased auxin levels in root primordia are important in controlling root branching, while their interaction with abscisic acid (ABA) likely regulates lateral root development in water-deficient plants.
