Ontogenetic Dietary Shifts and Microscopic Tooth Wear in Western Chimpanzees

open access: yesFrontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2019
Microscopic tooth wear studies on primates have largely focused on interspecific dietary comparisons, while few have addressed intraspecific variations, such as those among age groups.

Layers in the Fabric of Mind: A Critical Review of Cognitive Ontogeny [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
The essay is critically examines the conceptual problems with the influential modularity model of mind. We shall see that one of the essential characters of modules, namely informational encapsulation, is not only inessential, it ties a knot at a crucial

Gut microbiome and aging—A dynamic interplay of microbes, metabolites, and the immune system

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Age‐dependent shifts in microbial communities engender shifts in microbial metabolite profiles. These in turn drive shifts in barrier surface permeability of the gut and brain and induce immune activation. When paired with preexisting age‐related chronic inflammation this increases the risk of neuroinflammation and neurodegenerative diseases.

Are juveniles of the enigmatic deep-sea nematode Rhaptothyreus (Rhaptothyreida: Rhaptothyreidae) parasitic?

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Taxonomy, 2014
Rhaptothyreus is arguably the most enigmatic nematode taxon due to a combination of unusual morphological features (e.g., large feather-like amphids, vestigial mouth, trophosome, single spicule), unclear phylogenetic relationships (possible affinities ...

Feeding behaviour of larval European sea bass (Dicentrarchus labrax L.) in relation to temperature and prey density [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The feeding behaviour of larval European sea bass (Dicentrarchus labrax, L.) was analysed in relation to temperature and prey density under controlled laboratory conditions with the aim to assess the ability of larval fish to change the feeding tactic ...

Valosin‐containing protein counteracts ATP‐driven dissolution of FUS condensates through its ATPase activity in vitro

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Biomolecular condensates formed by fused in sarcoma (FUS) are dissolved by high ATP concentrations yet persist in cells. Using a reconstituted system, we demonstrate that valosin‐containing protein (VCP), an AAA+ ATPase, counteracts ATP‐driven dissolution of FUS condensates through its D2 ATPase activity.

Spatiotemporal ontogeny of brain wiring

open access: yesScience Advances, 2018
Common principles and developmental mechanisms characterize the brain connectome of diverse species, from flies to humans. The wiring of vertebrate and invertebrate brains provides the anatomical skeleton for cognition and behavior.

Ontogenia dos estratos parietais da antera de Tabebuia pulcherrima Sandw. (Bignoniaceae) Ontogeny of the anther parietal layers of Tabebuia pulcherrima Sandw. (Bignoniaceae)

open access: yesActa Botânica Brasílica, 1997
A ontogenia do tapete e dos demais estratos parietais, bem como o desenvolvimento do estômio e deiscência da antera de Tabebuia pulcherrima, foram presentemente estudados. O padrão de formação da parede do androsporângio é do tipo Dicotiledôneo. A camada

New World Order: Kauffman and Lonergan on the Emergence of Order in an Evolutionary Universe [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Stuart Kauffman argues that Darwinian natural selection cannot account for the spontaneous order of self-organized systems. This paper looks in detail at two of Kauffman s claims: (I ) that life is an emergent property of autocatalytic sets of chemicals;

Diversity and complexity in neural organoids

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Neural organoid research aims to expand genetic diversity on one side and increase tissue complexity on the other. Chimeroids integrate multiple donor genomes within single organoids. Self‐organising multi‐identity organoids, exogenous cell seeding, or enforced assembly of region‐specific organoids contribute to tissue complexity.
