Postoperative cardiac adhesions lead to numerous difficulties in reoperation procedures. Here, a thermo‐responsive in situ formed hydrogel is shown to can reliably cover the wounds after a convenient spraying or injection and significantly reduce adhesion formation in primary and recurrent cardiac injury adhesion models.

Diseases of sheep observed in Iowa. [PDF]
Owing to the increasing importance of the sheep industry and the frequent inquiries received concerning diseases of this animal, many of which are imperfectly understood by sheep raisers and veterinarians, it was deemed advisable to investigate and ...

The premature aging‐related progerin leads to defective nuclear morphology and is associated with disrupted molecular coupling between the extranuclear cytoskeleton and lamin‐associated nuclear envelope. It is discovered that progerin expression reduces nuclear tension, forms nuclear wrinkling, and enhances chromatin dynamics, thereby regulating ...

Functional activity of peptide ion channels in tethered bilayer lipid membranes: Review
Abstract Ion transport across biomembranes plays a major role in living cells. This fundamental function is normally carried out by molecules with both a hydrophobic and a hydrophilic side (amphiphilic molecules), which aggregate within the membrane forming a hydrophilic pore (the ion channel) permitting the selective translocation of permeant ions ...

Detection and Identification of Jaagsiekte Retrovirus Associated With Sheep Pulmonary Adenomatosis [PDF]
Sheep pulmonary adenomatosis (SPA) or jaagsiekte is a neoplastic disease of sheep, caused by jaagsiekte retrovirus (JSRV) infection in the lungs. In Malaysia, the disease was first observed in 1993, involving mainly the purebred imported sheep and their ...

The Structural Stability of Wild-type Horse Prion Protein - Molecular Dynamics Studies [PDF]
Prion diseases {\it (e.g. Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (CJD), variant CJD (vCJD), Gerstmann-Str$\ddot{\text{a}}$ussler-Scheinker syndrome (GSS), Fatal Familial Insomnia (FFI) and Kuru in humans, scrapie in sheep, bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE or `mad-cow' disease) and chronic wasting disease (CWD) in cattles)} are invariably fatal and highly ...

Bacterial cell walls (CWs) extracted from Porphyromonas gingivalis are nanofabricated to form the CW vesicles (CWV), which have intrinsic peroxidase‐mimicking and sonodynamic activities due to the presence of µ‐oxo bisheme and meanwhile retain a large amount of lipopolysaccharide.

Two major ruminant acute phase proteins, haptoglobin and serum amyloid A, as serum biomarkers during active sheep scab infestation [PDF]
Two ruminant acute phase proteins (APPs), haptoglobin (Hp) and serum amyloid A (SAA), were evaluated as serum biomarkers (BMs) for sheep scab–a highly contagious ectoparasitic disease caused by the mite Psoroptes ovis, which is a major welfare and ...

Sero-prevalence, risk factors and distribution of sheep and goat pox in Amhara Region, Ethiopia
Background Sheep pox and goat pox are contagious viral diseases of sheep and goats, respectively. The diseases result in substantial economic losses due to decreased milk and meat production, damage to hides and wool, and possible trade restriction.

Resilience of Small Beef Packers and the USDA Meat Supply Chain Initiative
ABSTRACT We focus on the plant‐size resilience relationship among small beef packers during COVID‐19. Defining resilience as the ability to maintain or increase slaughter and non‐resilience as otherwise, we use survey and secondary data to estimate a logit model where resilience is a function of a plant's capacity and age in addition to labor condition
