Marine silicon for biomedical sustainability
BMEMat, EarlyView.Schematic illustrating marine silicon for biomedical engineering. Abstract Despite momentous divergence from oceanic origin, human beings and marine organisms exhibit elemental homology through silicon utilization. Notably, silicon serves as a critical constituent in multiple biomedical processes.

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Three categories of explanations exist for why we age: mechanistic theories, which omit reference to evolutionary forces; weakening force of selection theories, which posit that barriers exist that prevent evolutionary forces from optimising fitness in ageing; and optimisation theories, which posit that evolutionary forces actually select for ...

RORγt‐APCs: The New Masters of Oral Tolerance
Barrier Immunity, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Oral tolerance is defined by the hypo‐responsiveness of our body to fed antigens, and its failure can lead to immune‐mediated diseases, such as allergy, chronic inflammation and autoimmune diseases. Decades of research have demonstrated that antigen‐presenting cells (APCs) promote oral tolerance by inducing regulatory T cells (Tregs) and/or ...

A comprehensive embryonic staging series of the turtle Trachemys scripta
Developmental Dynamics, EarlyView.Abstract Background Turtles hold a unique place in vertebrate evolutionary history, making them critical assets in embryology research. Yet, they remain understudied as potential model organisms in the field. Here, to support experimental manipulations with turtle embryos, we have created a complete normal table of development for comprehensive ...

Developmental Dynamics, EarlyView.Abstract Background Midline establishment is a fundamental process during early embryogenesis for Bilaterians. Midline morphogenesis in non‐amniotes can occur without mitosis, through Planar Cell Polarity (PCP) signaling. By contrast, amniotes utilize both cellular processes for developing the early midline landmark, the primitive streak (PS).

Forestry ResearchThe precise expression of transcription factors (TFs) is crucial for plant growth and development, especially during somatic embryogenesis. However, conventional overexpression approaches, commonly used for functional genetics, can lead to deleterious ...

Cloning crops in a CELSS via tissue culture: Prospects and problems [PDF]
Micropropagation is currently used to clone fruits, nuts, and vegetables and involves controlling the outgrowth in vitro of basal, axillary, or adventitious buds. Following clonal multiplication, shoots are divided and rooted.

Developmental Dynamics, EarlyView.Abstract Background Sporadic venous malformation (VM) is associated with the hyperactivating p.L914F mutation in TIE2, a receptor tyrosine kinase essential for vascular development. This mutation is not found in hereditary VM, suggesting incompatibility with life when expressed during early vascular development.

PlantsTranscription factors from the WOX family are well-known regulators of cell proliferation and differentiation in plants. Herein, we focused on several WOX genes from the intermediate clade and checked their impact on somatic embryogenesis using the model
