MicroRNA-3906 regulates fast muscle differentiation through modulating the target gene homer-1b in zebrafish embryos. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 A microRNA, termed miR-In300 or miR-3906, suppresses the transcription of myf5 through silencing dickkopf-related protein 3 (dkk3r/dkk3a) during early development when myf5 is highly transcribed, but not at late stages when myf5 transcription is reduced.

Synthesis of Fe/Ti oxides from a single source alkoxide precursor under inert atmosphere [PDF]
, 2008 The heterometal alkoxide [FeCl{Ti2(OPr i)9}] (1) was employed as a single source precursor for the preparation of Fe/Ti oxides under inert atmosphere. Three different synthetic procedures were adopted in the processing of 1, either employing aqueous HNO3

Inactivation of presenilins causes pre-synaptic impairment prior to post-synaptic dysfunction [PDF]
, 2010 Synaptic dysfunction is widely thought to be a pathogenic precursor to neurodegeneration in Alzheimer’s disease (AD), and the extent of synaptic loss provides the best correlate for the severity of dementia in AD patients.
