Warming in combination with increased precipitation mediate the sexual and clonal reproduction in the desert steppe dominant species Stipa breviflora

BMC Plant Biology, 2023
Background Clonal plants can successfully adapt to various ecosystems. A trade-off between sexual and clonal reproduction is generally assumed in clonal plants, which may be influenced both by the characteristics of the plant itself and environmental ...

Genetic circuits that govern bisexual and unisexual reproduction in Cryptococcus neoformans. [PDF]

PLoS Genetics, 2013
Cryptococcus neoformans is a human fungal pathogen with a defined sexual cycle. Nutrient-limiting conditions and pheromones induce a dimorphic transition from unicellular yeast to multicellular hyphae and the production of infectious spores.

Fish farming systems diversity and implications in the Republic of Benin: Fish farm types and their economic performance

Aquaculture, Fish and Fisheries, Volume 2, Issue 6, Page 522-539, December 2022., 2022
Farm type delineation allows for simplifying the diversity in fish farming systems. Multivariate statistical techniques combined with the Calinski and Harabasz pseudo F statistic and bootstrapping were applied to determine the realistic number of fish farm types.

Robust acute myeloid leukemia engraftment in humanized scaffolds using injectable biomaterials and intravenous xenotransplantation

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Patient‐derived xenografts (PDXs) can be improved by implantation of a humanized niche. We tested different biomaterials and approaches, and demonstrate that the combination of an injectable biomaterial for scaffold creation plus an intravenous route for acute myeloid leukemia (AML) xenotransplantation provide the most convenient and robust approach to

Reevaluation of regional lymph nodes in patients with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma in the pancreatic body and tail

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, Volume 7, Issue 1, Page 147-156, January 2023., 2023
This study indicated that LN of both the CA and SMA systems should be dissected in patients with Pb‐PDAC. However, only those around the SPA and splenic hilus should be dissected routinely in those with Pt‐PDAC. Abstract Introduction In patients with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) in the pancreatic body (Pb) and tail (Pt), the appropriate area

Morphological and transcriptomic evidence for ammonium induction of sexual reproduction in Thalassiosira pseudonana and other centric diatoms. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2017
The reproductive strategy of diatoms includes asexual and sexual phases, but in many species, including the model centric diatom Thalassiosira pseudonana, sexual reproduction has never been observed.

Clinical significance of stratifying prostate cancer patients through specific circulating genes

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
We tested a specific panel of genes representative of luminal, neuroendocrine and stem‐like cells in the blood of prostate cancer patients, showing predictive value from diagnosis to late stages of disease. This approach allows monitoring of treatment responses and outcomes at specific time points in trajectories.

Identification of serum microRNAs as potential diagnostic biomarkers for detecting precancerous lesions of gastric cancer

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, Volume 7, Issue 1, Page 63-70, January 2023., 2023
We found that microRNA‐196b‐5p was significantly upregulated in precancerous lesions and that combining it with other microRNAs increased the accuracy of detection. Since endoscopy is associated with risk, the identification of high‐risk groups for gastric cancer is expected to make it possible to clearly identify groups that should undergo endoscopy ...
