The focal adhesion: a regulated component of aortic stiffness. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2013
Increased aortic stiffness is an acknowledged predictor and cause of cardiovascular disease. The sources and mechanisms of vascular stiffness are not well understood, although the extracellular matrix (ECM) has been assumed to be a major component.

Tamoxifen and Src kinase inhibitors as neuroprotective/neuroregenerative drugs after spinal cord injury

Neural Regeneration Research, 2015
Spinal cord injury (SCI) is a devastating condition that produces significant changes in the lifestyle of patients. Many molecular and cellular events are triggered after the initial physical impact to the cord.

Correlated-electron description of the photophysics of thin films of $\pi$-conjugated polymers

, 2009
We extend Mulliken's theory of ground state charge transfer in a donor-acceptor complex to excited state charge transfer between pairs of identical $\pi$-conjugated oligomers, one of which is in the optically excited state and the other in the ground ...

Frequency of arboreality is correlated with longer hand skeletons in Gorilla: Analysis of a new skeletal sample of Bwindi mountain gorillas

Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
Variation in arboreality across gorilla populations is associated with systematic differences in manual digital lengths. Using a new dataset of linear metrics from the Bwindi mountain gorillas, we quantify metacarpal and phalangeal lengths in eastern and western gorilla populations across all five rays. Consistent with quantified behavioral differences,

A Family of PP2 Phosphatases in Plasmodium falciparum and Parasitic Protozoa: Reply [PDF]

Parasitology Today, 1999
The life cycle of Plasmodium is complex. Even within the sexual phase, there are a number of distinct developmental processes. These include: gametocytogenesis, formation of both male and female gametocytes, exflagellation (which results in the release of eight motile male gametes from a single male gametocyte); fertilization of the extracellular ...

Clinical Insights From a Case of Sifrim‐Hitz‐Weiss Syndrome With a CHD4 Variant: Expanding the Phenotypic Spectrum and Its Response to Growth Hormone Therapy

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, Volume 200, Issue 6, Page 1403-1410, June 2026.
ABSTRACT To enhance clinicians' understanding of Sifrim‐Hitz‐Weiss syndrome (SIHIWES), this study investigated the clinical phenotypes, genetic characteristics, and response to growth hormone therapy in a patient. A case of a patient with global developmental delay and distinctive facial features is presented.

Development and characterization of near‐isogenic lines for quantitative trait locus qDT.3B.1 underlying drought tolerance in wheat

The Plant Genome, Volume 19, Issue 2, June 2026.
Abstract Drought is a critical challenge to wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) productivity. The quantitative complexity of drought tolerance makes breeding for this trait difficult. Developing near‐isogenic lines (NILs) targeting quantitative trait locus (QTL) for 1000‐grain weight (TGW) under drought stress can effectively identify key mechanisms and genes.

Hindlimb functional morphology and locomotor biomechanics of the small Late Triassic pseudosuchian reptile Gracilisuchus stipanicicorum (Archosauria: Gracilisuchidae)

Journal of Anatomy, Volume 248, Issue 6, Page 1026-1063, June 2026.
A three‐dimensional biomechanical model of the musculoskeletal system is used to analyse the potential locomotor functions of the small (~1 kg) Late Triassic archosaurian reptile Gracilisuchus stipanicicorum. The study finds that, potentially like the ancestral archosaur, this taxon was probably quadrupedal, plantigrade and neither strongly sprawling ...

From Observations and Pictures to Images: Learning Lab@PP2 in Tourism Classes

The Qualitative Report, 2020
Learning Lab@PP2 is a pedagogical tool that has been applied in a degree course in tourism at the Polytechnic Institute of Beja, specifically in classes of Professional Practice II. It advocates that the learning process should occur in the complex context of society, organizations and professional relations that characterize the tourism industry.
