High‐Altitude Adaptation of Frogs (Case Study: Nanorana parkeri): From Physiological Phenotypes to AltitudeOmics

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
High altitudes are challenging for the animals that inhabit these environments. The Xizang plateau frog (Nanorana parkeri) survives in high‐altitude environments through a synergistic strategy of metabolic remodeling and protein expression adjustment to optimize energy efficiency and enhance cellular protection.

Model of RPE regeneration in larval zebrafish.

, 2019
(A) nfsB-eGFP is specifically expressed in mature RPE in the central two-thirds of the eye. (B) Application of MTZ leads to apoptosis (red) of RPE and PRs. (C) RPE ablation leads to degeneration of PRs and Bruch’s Membrane (dotted line).

Feasibility of a field-based submaximal stair ascent test for estimating aerobic capacity and lower-limb strength in middle-aged and older adults. [PDF]

Clin Physiol Funct Imaging
Abstract Background Assessing functional capacity is a key aspect of exercise testing and offers important insights into health in adult populations. However, accurate assessment often requires laboratory‐based maximal tests. This pilot study investigated whether a field‐based self‐paced submaximal stair ascent test could feasibly assess aerobic ...

Determinants of Corporate Carbon Disclosure: A Systematic Framework and Agenda for Future Research

Accounting &Finance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Companies are increasingly expected to act swiftly to reduce their environmental impact and disclose detailed information about their carbon emissions. This study develops a multidimensional framework that links external factors and internal organisational conditions shaping the adoption and promotion of carbon disclosure.

Characterization of hiPSC-RPE on a prosthetic Bruch's membrane

, 2016
Purpose\ud \ud The Bruch’s membrane is a multilayered collagenous structure, positioned at the basal side of the retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) cells, immediately apical to the choroidal vasculature in the eye. Disruption of the integral intra-cellular

Infection control in the brain and the eye

Acta Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract The Central Nervous System (CNS), comprising the brain and the eye, is considered to have a ‘privileged’ mechanism for dealing with immunological challenge (immune privilege, IP). CNS IP has been revealed through experiments using foreign protein antigens and cell and tissue alloantigens (grafts), but evidence for a role for IP in modulating ...

Mesopic microperimetry in Stargardt disease: Application and reliability

Acta Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Mesopic microperimetry (mMP) is a promising functional endpoint in clinical trials for Stargardt disease type 1 (STGD1). This study evaluated the test–retest variability of mMP and influencing factors, which is essential for ensuring reliability in future STGD1 trials.
