Antitumor effect of Melaleuca alternifolia essential oil and its main component terpinen-4-ol in combination with target therapy in melanoma models

Cell Death Discovery, 2021
Essential oils (EOs) have been recently emerging for their promising biological activities in preventing tumorigenesis or progression of different tumor histotypes, including melanoma.

PartitionFinder 2: New Methods for Selecting Partitioned Models of Evolution for Molecular and Morphological Phylogenetic Analyses.

Molecular biology and evolution, 2016
PartitionFinder 2 is a program for automatically selecting best-fit partitioning schemes and models of evolution for phylogenetic analyses. PartitionFinder 2 is substantially faster and more efficient than version 1, and incorporates many new methods and

Caffeine reduces deficits in mechanosensation and locomotion induced by L-DOPA and protects dopaminergic neurons in a transgenic Caenorhabditis elegans model of Parkinson’s disease

Pharmaceutical Biology, 2020
Context L-DOPA is the first-line drug for Parkinson’s disease (PD). However, chronic use can lead to dyskinesia. Caffeine, which is a known neuroprotectant, can potentially act as an adjunct to minimise adverse effects of L-DOPA.

Myopia disease mouse models: a missense point mutation (S673G) and a protein-truncating mutation of the Zfp644 mimic human disease phenotype

Cell & Bioscience, 2019
Zinc finger 644 (Zfp644 in mouse, ZNF644 in human) gene is a transcription factor whose mutation S672G is considered a potential genetic factor of inherited high myopia.

Lymphocryptovirus-dependent occurrence of lymphoma in SIV-infected rhesus macaques with particular consideration to two uncommon cases of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma [PDF]

Primate Biology, 2016
Despite combination antiretroviral therapy, high-grade malignant non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL) is still one of the most frequently acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS)-defining disorders in the end stage of infection with human immunodeficiency virus

Generation and Characterization of a Novel Angelman Syndrome Mouse Model with a Full Deletion of the Ube3a Gene

Cells, 2022
Angelman syndrome (AS) is a neurodevelopmental disorder caused by deficits in maternally inherited UBE3A. The disease is characterized by intellectual disability, impaired motor skills, and behavioral deficits, including increased anxiety and autism ...

Quaternions in molecular modeling [PDF]

Journal of Molecular Graphics and Modelling, 2007
Quaternions are an important tool to describe the orientation of a molecule. This paper considers the use of quaternions in matching two conformations of a molecule, in interpolating rotations, in performing statistics on orientational data, in the random sampling of rotations, and in establishing grids in orientation space.

The epigenetic modifier Fam208a is required to maintain epiblast cell fitness

Scientific Reports, 2017
Gastrulation initiates with the formation of the primitive streak, during which, cells of the epiblast delaminate to form the mesoderm and definitive endoderm.

Chimeric Antigen Receptor T Cells Targeting Cell Surface GRP78 to Eradicate Acute Myeloid Leukemia

Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2022
Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is a serious, life-threatening hematological malignancy. The treatment outcome of relapsed or refractory AML patients remains dismal, and new treatment options are needed.
