An Unexplored Diversity for Adaptation of Germination to High Temperatures in <i>Brassica</i> Species. [PDF]

Evol Appl
ABSTRACT Elevated temperatures inhibit the germination of a concerning number of crop species. One strategy to mitigate the impact of warming temperatures is to identify and introgress adaptive genes into elite germplasm. Diversity must be sought in wild populations, coupled with an understanding of the complex pattern of adaptation across a broad ...

Comparing 3D imaging devices for the measurement of cutaneous neurofibromas in patients with Neurofibromatosis Type 1. [PDF]

Skin Res Technol
Abstract Background Cutaneous neurofibromas (cNFs) are a major cause of disfigurement in patients with Neurofibromatosis Type 1 (NF1). However, clinical trials investigating cNF treatments lack standardised outcome measures to objectively evaluate changes in cNF size and appearance.

Heterozygous NF1 dermal fibroblasts modulate exosomal content to promote angiogenesis in a tissue‐engineered skin model of neurofibromatosis type‐1

Journal of Neurochemistry, Volume 167, Issue 4, Page 556-570, November 2023., 2023
In this study, we investigated the influence of dermal fibroblast in modifying the surrounding microenvironment. Neovascularization plays a crucial role in neurofibromas formation, growth, and malignant transformation. Using NF1‐derived tissue‐engineered skins, we showed that NF1 heterozygosity in human dermal fibroblasts promoted angiogenesis through ...
