OPTIMAL SHAPES OF WEIRS FOR TRAPPING MIGRATORY FISH

Jurnal Teknologi, 2016
Use of fishing weirs can be seen throughout the world to trap migratory fish in rivers. In rivers flowing into Lake Biwa, Shiga prefecture, Japan, a peculiar type of traditional fishing weir has been operated, targeting anadromous fish species such as Plecoglossus altivelis and Oncorhynchus masou rhodurus. That type of fishing weir has the advantage of

Identification of functional murine mitochondrial formyl peptides and their effects on myeloid‐derived suppressor cell generation

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
We first identified functional murine mitochondrial N‐formyl peptides (MT‐FPs) and investigated their effects on the in vitro myeloid‐derived suppressor cell (MDSC) generation from bone marrow cells. We demonstrated that MT‐FPs acted directly on bone marrow cells to promote MDSC generation and modulated the polymorphonuclear (PMN)‐MDSC/monocyte (M ...

Sentinels of environmental change: shifts in fish diversity through the lens of artisanal fishers [PDF]

Neotropical Ichthyology
River regulation has caused significant shifts in fish diversity, with severe impacts on small-scale artisanal fisheries, which depend on fishing resources for income, employment and food security.

Fixed and flexible: coexistence of obligate and facultative migratory strategies in a freshwater fish [PDF]

, 2014
Migration is an important event in many animal life histories, but the degree to which individual animals participate in seasonal migrations often varies within populations.

Exon 7 splicing of ERα predicts poor prognosis and increases phenotypic heterogeneity in luminal a subtype breast cancer

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
ERα splice variant ERα∆7 lacks the C‐terminus, and its expression may change phenotypes of breast cancers. Our results showed that ERα∆7 is found in the luminal A subtype, and elevated ERα∆7 levels are linked to improved cell survival with lower proliferation and migration.

Screening and epitope characterization of Nidogen‐2‐specific nanobodies

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Camel immunization and phage display were employed to generate high‐affinity VHH nanobodies against Nidogen‐2. After library construction, biopanning, ELISA screening, sequencing, and recombinant expression, selected nanobodies were purified and characterized, leading to the preliminary exploration of a nanobody‐based sandwich ELISA for specific ...

Flood‐irrigated agriculture mediates climate‐induced wetland scarcity for summering sandhill cranes in western North America

Ecology and Evolution
Information about species distributions is lacking in many regions of the world, forcing resource managers to answer complex ecological questions with incomplete data. Information gaps are compounded by climate change, driving ecological bottlenecks that

Distinct migratory and non-migratory ecotypes of an endemic New Zealand eleotrid (Gobiomorphus cotidianus) – implications for incipient speciation in island freshwater fish species

BMC Evolutionary Biology, 2008
Background Many postglacial lakes contain fish species with distinct ecomorphs. Similar evolutionary scenarios might be acting on evolutionarily young fish communities in lakes of remote islands.

Mass spectrometry based identification of AMP‐O‐Tris generated by Thermococcus onnurineus Cas10

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Isolated Thermococcus onnurineus Cas10 generates the noncanonical ATP‐derived product AMP‐O‐Tris while in Tris‐containing buffer as identified via mass spectrometry, revealing relaxed nucleophile selectivity under isolated conditions. These findings suggest that multiprotein Csm complex assembly restricts Cas10 reactivity toward canonical cyclic ...
