Genetic Biomarkers for Periodontal Diseases: A Systematic Review
ABSTRACT Aims To identify genetic biomarkers that may be used in the diagnosis, prevention or management of different forms of periodontal disease. Materials and Methods Following protocol registration and PICOTS (patient, intervention, comparison, outcome, time, studies) questions, a systematic search of the literature was conducted (PudMed, Ovid ...

Late blight pathogen targets host Rab‐G3 GTPases with an atypical GTPase‐activating protein
The Phytophthora infestans RXLR effector Pi17063 functions as an atypical GTPase‐activating protein of host positive immune regulators, specifically the small GTPase NbRab‐G3. Pi17063 promotes the relocalization of NbRab‐G3 proteins to the cytoplasm, where they are inactive, disrupting the balance of the NbRab‐G3 switch and thus leading to enhanced ...

ABSTRACT Background The use of ultrasound (US) makes it convenient to identify dysphagia or swallowing impairment. The aim of the study was to evaluate the validity and reliability of US measurements for swallowing function. Methods We conducted a systematic review and meta‐analysis.

Abstract Colour signals play pivotal roles in different communication systems, and the evolution of these characters has been associated with behavioural ecology, integumentary production processes and perceptual mechanisms of the species involved. Here, we present the first insight into the molecular and histological basis of skin colour polymorphism ...

ABSTRACT Genomic projections of (mal)adaptation under future climate change, known as genomic offset, faces limited application due to challenges in validating model predictions. Individuals inhabiting regions with high genomic offset are expected to experience increased levels of physiological stress as a result of climate change, but documenting such
