Assessing small-mammal trapping design using spatially explicit capture recapture (SECR) modeling on long-term monitoring data. [PDF]
Few studies have evaluated the optimal sampling design for tracking small mammal population trends, especially for rare or difficult to detect species. Spatially explicit capture-recapture (SECR) models present an advancement over non-spatial models by ...

A New Paclitaxel Formulation Based on Secretome Isolated from Mesenchymal Stem Cells Shows a Significant Cytotoxic Effect on Osteosarcoma Cell Lines [PDF]
Background: Osteosarcoma (OS) represents a rare cancer with an unfavorable prognosis that needs innovative treatment. The aim was to isolate a secretome from mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) that are treated with paclitaxel (PTX)-containing microvesicles as

Impact of secretin receptor homo-dimerization on natural ligand binding [PDF]
Class B G protein-coupled receptors can form dimeric complexes important for high potency biological effects. Here, we apply pharmacological, biochemical, and biophysical techniques to cells and membranes expressing the prototypic secretin receptor (SecR)
