Gut microbial ecology of Xenopus tadpoles across life stages

open access: yesPeer Community Journal, 2021
Background: The microorganism world living in amphibians is still largely under-represented and under-studied in the literature. Among anuran amphibians, African clawed frogs of the Xenopus genus stand as well-characterized models with an in-depth ...

Large Igneous Province Record Through Time and Implications for Secular Environmental Changes and Geological Time‐Scale Boundaries

open access: yesGeophysical Monograph Series, Page 1-26., 2021

Exploring the links between Large Igneous Provinces and dramatic environmental impact

An emerging consensus suggests that Large Igneous Provinces (LIPs) and Silicic LIPs (SLIPs) are a significant driver of dramatic global environmental and biological changes, including mass extinctions.

Comparisons of genetic constraints across life stages and across temperatures from Genetic independence between traits separated by metamorphosis is widespread but varies with biological function

open access: yes, 2023
Why is metamorphosis so pervasive? Does it facilitate the independent (micro)evolution of quantitative traits in distinct life-stages, like it enables some limbs and organs to develop at specific life-stages? We tested this hypothesis by measuring the expression of 6400 genes in 41 Drosophila melanogaster inbred lines at larval and adult stages.

Human development II: We Need an Integrated Theory for Matter, Life and Consciousness to Understand Life and Healing

open access: yesThe Scientific World Journal, 2006
For almost a decade, we have experimented with supporting the philosophical development of severely ill patients to induce recovery and spontaneous healing.

Comparative transcriptomic analysis reveals gene regulation mediated by caspase activity in a chordate organism

open access: yesBMC Molecular and Cell Biology, 2021
Background Apoptosis is a caspase regulated cell death present in all metazoans defined by a conserved set of morphological features. A well-described function of apoptosis is the removal of excessive cells during development and homeostasis.

Tumour–host interactions in Drosophila: mechanisms in the tumour micro‐ and macroenvironment

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This review examines how tumour–host crosstalk takes place at multiple levels of biological organisation, from local cell competition and immune crosstalk to organism‐wide metabolic and physiological collapse. Here, we integrate findings from Drosophila melanogaster studies that reveal conserved mechanisms through which tumours hijack host systems to ...

Genome-Wide Analysis of MicroRNAs in Relation to Pupariation in Oriental Fruit Fly

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2019
Insect metamorphosis is a complex process involving drastic morphological and physiological changes. microRNAs (miRNAs) are a class of endogenous small non-coding RNAs that play key roles in regulating various biological processes, including ...

miRNAs of Aedes aegypti (Linnaeus 1762) conserved in six orders of the class Insecta

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
Aedes aegypti L. is the most important vector of arboviruses such as dengue, Zika, chikungunya, Mayaro, and yellow fever, which impact millions of people’s health per year.

Dynamic Obstacle Avoidance of Metamorphic Microrobots Using Concentric Sector Navigator

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
Metamorphic magnetic microrobots are navigated using a concentric sector navigator for dynamic obstacle avoidance in both microroller and swarm states. After microroller transport, citrate‐triggered dissolution releases nanoparticles that reassemble into a controllable swarm.

Teleost fish metamorphosis under the influence of estrogenic hormones: targeting the thyroid axis – a literature review

open access: yesEnvironment International
Estrogens, whether naturally excreted by humans and livestock or introduced through pharmaceuticals, are endocrine-disrupting chemicals (EDCs) with strong estrogenic activity.
