Plasticity, plasticity, plasticity…and the rigid problem of sex [PDF]
Why is popular understanding of female–male differences still based on rigid models of development, even though contemporary developmental sciences emphasize plasticity? Is it because the science of sex differences still works from the same rigid models?

Pancreas homeostasis is based on replication of differentiated cells in order to maintain proper organ size and function under changing physiological demand. Recent studies suggest that acinar cells, the most abundant cell type in the pancreas, are facultative progenitors capable of reverting to embryonic-like multipotent progenitor cells under injury ...

Plasticity of Inhibition [PDF]
Until recently, the study of plasticity of neural circuits focused almost exclusively on potentiation and depression at excitatory synapses on principal cells. Other elements in the neural circuitry, such as inhibitory synapses on principal cells and the synapses recruiting interneurons, were assumed to be relatively inflexible, as befits a role of ...

Sensory plasticity in a socially plastic bee [PDF]
AbstractThe social Hymenoptera have contributed much to our understanding of the evolution of sensory systems. Attention has focussed chiefly on how sociality and sensory systems have evolved together. In the Hymenoptera, the antennal sensilla are important for optimizing the perception of olfactory social information.

Liver Tissue Regeneration using Nano Silver impregnated Sodium Alginate/PVA Composite Nanofibres
Liver regeneration is a highly organized tissue regrowth process and is the most important reaction of the injured liver. The present study endeavors towards the preparation and characterization of nanoporous Sodium Alginate (SA)/ Poly Vinyl Alcohol (PVA)

Being difficult to degrade, latex compound waste (LCW) should be handled carefully. In this study the possibility of application of LCW for shoe sole was evaluated. LCW was derived from latex-based industry from local factory. It was blended with natural
