Organ Size Control: Lessons from Drosophila. [PDF]
Dev Cell, 2015 Of fundamental interest to biologists is how organs achieve a reproducible size during development. Studies of the developing Drosophila wing have provided many key insights that will help give a conceptual understanding of the process beyond the fly. In the wing, there is evidence for both "top-down" mechanisms, in which signals emanating from small ...

Review: Seasonal differences in the physiology of wild northern ruminants
Animal, 2020 Ruminants living in seasonal environments face a two-fold challenge during winter. The energetic cost of maintaining a high body temperature is higher at lower ambient temperatures, and this is compounded by poor availability and quality of feed.

SCFSAP controls organ size by targeting PPD proteins for degradation in Arabidopsis thaliana [PDF]
, 2016 Control of organ size by cell proliferation and growth is a fundamental process, but the mechanisms that determine the final size of organs are largely elusive in plants. We have previously revealed that the ubiquitin receptor DA1 regulates organ size by

Geographical variation of organ size in Andrew’s toad (Bufo andrewsi)
Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2022 Phenotypic variation of morphological and physiological traits is assumed to be generated from spatial heterogeneity in environments, and it has been regarded as an important concern domain in evolutionary biology.

A Feedback Loop Controlling Organ Size [PDF]
Developmental Cell, 2019 To maintain proper organ size, nature has devised trans-organ communication systems-involving both paracrine and circulating regulatory factors-to safeguard homeostasis. In this issue of Developmental Cell, Ji et al. (2019) now describe an enterohepatic feedback loop that balances tissue size and function in the mammalian liver.

Assessment of Breast Volume Change after Transverse Rectus Abdominis Myocutaneous Flap [PDF]
Archives of Plastic Surgery, 2012 Background The evaluation of a breast after breast reconstruction depends on a surgeon's subjective criteria. We used computed tomography (CT) scans to obtain an objective evaluation of the postoperative results by measuring the breast volume of ...

Electrochemical Sizing of Organic Nanoparticles
Angewandte Chemie International Edition, 2013 The size of organic nanoparticles (NPs) can be electrochemically determined by Faradaic charge transfer when nanoparticles strike an electrode. Indigo NPs were used as a model (see distribution of the NP diameter). This strategy could be used for monitoring the size of a wide range of organic nanoparticles.
