Abstract The organization and function of reptilian excurrent ducts remain poorly characterized, particularly in Neotropical snakes. We provide the first integrative morphological, histochemical, immunohistochemical, and ultrastructural analysis of the proximal post‐testicular ducts of Crotalus durissus across reproductive stages.

Concanavalin-A-induced transmembrane linkage of concanavalin A surface receptors to intracellular myosin-containing filaments. [PDF]
With normal rat kidney cells in monolayer culture, we have studied the distribution on the cell surface of receptors for concanavalin A, and the distribution of the smooth muscle myosin-like protein inside the same cell, using specific fluorescence microscopic methods.

ABSTRACT Background and Objectives Whole‐grain (brown) rice has superior nutritional quality but is prone to rancidity, primarily caused by endogenous lipases and oxidases. This study evaluated mild hydrothermal stabilization (MHS), comprising grain surface wetting, followed by short‐duration atmospheric‐pressure steaming, applied to two West African ...

Probing multivalency in ligand–receptor-mediated adhesion of soft, biomimetic interfaces
Many biological functions at cell level are mediated by the glycocalyx, a dense carbohydrate-presenting layer. In this layer specific interactions between carbohydrate ligands and protein receptors are formed to control cell–cell recognition, cell ...

Abstract BACKGROUND Arabinoxylans (AX), abundant in wheat bran, represent a valuable yet underutilized fraction of cereal milling by‐products. In this study, an AX‐enriched fraction obtained from durum wheat meal (DWM), produced from defatted durum wheat germ and debranning fractions, was incorporated at increasing levels (0–25%) into pea starch ...

ABSTRACT Background Mammalian sperm need to undergo hyperactivation, capacitation, and acrosome reaction to achieve fertilization competence. However, the female reproductive tract presents contrasting metabolic environments. The uterus is glucose‐rich, and the oviduct is lactate‐rich and glucose‐limited.
