Gender diversities and sex education

Journal of Philosophy of Education, Volume 56, Issue 5, Page 654-662, October 2022., 2022
Abstract This article suggests that science‐based understandings of sex and gender can improve sex education by inviting students to consider what sex and gender mean and by encouraging recognition and respect in a gender‐diverse context. In addition, decolonising approaches to gender provide another route to sexuality education that is more attendant ...

The Primary Cilium as a Biomarker in the Hypoxic Adaptation of Bone Marrow-Derived Mesenchymal Stromal Cells: A Role for the Secreted Frizzled-Related Proteins

Biomarker Insights, 2011
A pivotal role in guiding mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) differentiation has recently been attributed to the primary cilium. This solitary, non-motile microtubule-based organelle emerging from the cell surface acts as a sensorial membrane structure ...

Deciphering the skeletal interoceptive circuitry to control bone homeostasis

BMEMat, EarlyView.
This review introduces the skeletal interoceptive circuitry, covering the ascending signals from bone tissues to the brain (sensors), the central neural circuits that integrate this information and dispatch commands (CPU), and the descending pathways that regulate bone homeostasis (effectors).

Sweet Femininities: Women and the Confectionery Trade in Eighteenth‐Century Barcelona

Gender &History, Volume 34, Issue 3, Page 574-589, October 2022., 2022
Abstract This article examines the intersections between sweetness, femininity and the confectionery trade in eighteenth‐century Barcelona, at a time of growing consumption of sugar and slavery. Drawing on a range of underexplored archival material, this study traces the stories of women of different social groups, namely, elite housewives, nuns and ...

Primary Cilium-Mediated Retinal Pigment Epithelium Maturation Is Disrupted in Ciliopathy Patient Cells

Cell Reports, 2018
Summary: Primary cilia are sensory organelles that protrude from the cell membrane. Defects in the primary cilium cause ciliopathy disorders, with retinal degeneration as a prominent phenotype.

The use of biophysical approaches to understand ciliary beating [PDF]

arXiv, 2020
Motile cilia are a striking example of functional cellular organelle, conserved across all the eukaryotic species. Motile cilia allow swimming of cells and small organisms and transport of liquids across epithelial tissues. Whilst the molecular structure is now very well understood, the dynamics of cilia is not well established either at the single ...

The ductal network in the human testis and epididymis: What belongs to which?

Clinical Anatomy, EarlyView.
Abstract The testes and epididymis are traversed by a system of tubules in which sperm cells are generated, matured, nourished, and transported. Among these are the efferent ductules, which connect the rete testis to the duct of the epididymis. In the Terminologia Anatomica (TA), the efferent ductules are assigned to the testicles, while numerous ...

Return Fantasies: Martial Masculinity, Misogyny and Homosocial Bonding in the Aftermath of Second World War

Gender &History, EarlyView., 2023
Abstract This article explores male popular culture in Australia in the mid‐1940s, particularly men's magazines of the period, to illuminate aspects of the psycho‐sexual dimensions of Australian veterans returning to civil society. The sexual landscape of Australian society had undergone considerable transformation, especially through an increasing ...

Linking specification to differentiation:From proneural genes to the regulation of ciliogenesis [PDF]

, 2011
Much of developmental biology is concerned with the processes by which cells become committed to particular fates in a regulated fashion, whereas cell biology addresses, among other things, the variety of differentiated forms and functions that cells can

Synthesis and evaluation of pseudoglucosinolates (psGSLs) releasing isothiocyanates (ITCs) in the presence of azoreductases

ChemBioChem, Accepted Article.
Naturally occurring isothiocyanates (ITCs) display multiple interesting bioactivities, but their medicinal exploitation is very limited as ITCs are non‐druglike compounds with problematic pharmacokinetic properties. The concept of pseudoglucosinolates (psGSLs) provides a novel prodrug approach for the release of ITCs which can be adjusted to different ...
