Larvicidal Activity of Phytochemicals From Handroanthus impetiginosus Seeds Against Culex quinquefasciatus

open access: yesChemistry &Biodiversity, EarlyView.
The hexane extract was obtained from the seeds of H. impetiginosus, from which fatty acids and FAMEs were obtained. The three samples were tested on C. quinquefasciatus larvae, promoting mortality with moderate LC50 values. The hexane extract was analyzed by gas chromatographymass spectrometry (GC‐MS), and the most abundant compounds were ethyl oleate (

Discovery of an Atypical Arp2/3 Complex in Malaria Parasites Sheds New Light on Nuclear Actin

open access: yesCytoskeleton, EarlyView.

ABSTRACT Objective Walking capacity declines prematurely in individuals with ataxia telangiectasia. However, granular data on walking capacity loss in ataxia telangiectasia are scarce. In this large cross‐sectional cohort, we describe age‐related walking capacity loss reported by participants and compare categories of a subjective walking capacity ...
