A Three-Dimensional Skeletal Reconstruction of the Stem Amniote Orobates pabsti (Diadectidae): Analyses of Body Mass, Centre of Mass Position, and Joint Mobility. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2015
Orobates pabsti, a basal diadectid from the lower Permian, is a key fossil for the understanding of early amniote evolution. Quantitative analysis of anatomical information suffers from fragmentation of fossil bones, plastic deformation due to diagenetic

Future Contingents and the Logic of Temporal Omniscience [PDF]

, 2019
At least since Aristotle’s famous 'sea-battle' passages in On Interpretation 9, some substantial minority of philosophers has been attracted to the doctrine of the open future--the doctrine that future contingent statements are not true. But, prima facie,

Three-dimensional kinematic analysis of the pectoral girdle during upside-down locomotion of two-toed sloths (Choloepus didactylus, Linné 1758)

Frontiers in Zoology, 2010
Background Theria (marsupials and placental mammals) are characterized by a highly mobile pectoral girdle in which the scapula has been shown to be an important propulsive element during locomotion.

The proteome of extracellular vesicles of the lung fluke Paragonimus kellicotti produced in vitro and in the lung cyst

Scientific Reports, 2023
Paragonimiasis is a zoonotic, food-borne trematode infection that affects 21 million people globally. Trematodes interact with their hosts via extracellular vesicles (EV) that carry protein and RNA cargo.

Zwitterionic Mn(III)-Tetraphenyl Porphyrins: Water-Soluble MRI Contrast Agents with High Relaxivity. [PDF]

ChemMedChem
Mn(III)‐based contrast agents (MBCAs) are promising and potentially safer alternatives to the Gd(III)‐based contrast agents (GBCAs) currently used in MRI. This study reports the synthesis, physicochemical characterization and first in vivo application of novel Mn(III)‐tetraphenylporphyrin chelates, bearing zwitterionic sulfobetaine or N‐oxide groups ...
