Soft Statistical Mechanics for Biology
2022The multilevel organization of nature is self-evident: proteins do interact among them to give rise to an organized metabolism and the same hierarchical organization is in action for gene expression, tissue and organ architectures, and ecological systems.The still more common approach to such state of affairs is to think that causally relevant events ...

Mechanical regulation of oligodendrocyte biology
Neuroscience Letters, 2020Oligodendrocytes (OL) are a subset of glial cells in the central nervous system (CNS) comprising the brain and spinal cord. The CNS environment is defined by complex biochemical and biophysical cues during development and response to injury or disease.

Molecular Mechanisms of Pollination Biology
Annual Review of Plant Biology, 2020Pollination is the transfer of pollen grains from the stamens to the stigma, an essential requirement of sexual reproduction in flowering plants. Cross-pollination increases genetic diversity and is favored by selection in the majority of situations. Flowering plants have evolved a wide variety of traits that influence pollination success, including ...

Synthetic Biology: A Challenge to Mechanical Explanations in Biology?
Perspectives in Biology and Medicine, 2012In their plans to modify organisms, synthetic biologists have contrasted engineering and tinkering. By drawing this contrast between their endeavors and what has happened during the evolution of organisms by natural selection, they underline the novelty of their projects and justify their ambitions.

Nitric Oxide, 2012
Nitroxyl (HNO) is the one-electron reduced and protonated congener of NO. It has been reported that HNO has numerous important and therapeutically useful biological properties. Although it has not been demonstrated that HNO is endogenously generated, developing HNO-donors as pharmacological agents has become an area of significant interest.

MOLECULAR MECHANISMS IN DEVELOPMENTAL BIOLOGY
Cell Biology International, 1996AbstractSome general molecular mechanisms underlying development are described. Namely: those involved in the differentiation of the R7 receptor inDrosophilaembryonic retina; those involved in the determination of embryonic axes and in polar cell differentiation, inDrosophila; those involved in the determination of the AB and P cell lineage and in ...

A neurocognitive mechanism for folk biology?
Behavioral and Brain Sciences, 1998Atran's putative module for folk biology is evaluated with respect to evidence from patients showing category-specific impairments for living kinds. Existing neuropsychological evidence provides no support for the primacy of categorization at the generic species level.
