PEK14: A Kinesin‐4 Necessary for Male‐Derived Fertility in Arabidopsis thaliana

Cytoskeleton, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Of the 61 kinesins annotated in Arabidopsis thaliana, many are still without assigned function. Here, we have screened an insertional mutant library of Arabidopsis pollen‐expressed kinesins for fertility defects. Insertional mutants for three kinesins showed a significant reduction in seed set.

Ontogenetic Alteration of the Spindle Apparatus: Possible Relation to Chromosome Pairing

Caryologia, 1973
SUMMARYAs the monocot Ornithogalum virens matures from seed germination to flowering there is a progressive reduction in the diameter of mitotic spindle apparatuses at the metaphase plate, and poles become more distinct. Apparently one result of this constriction of the spindle is a closer association of chromosomes on the metaphase plate which could ...

Making Two out of One: Kinesin Motors Driving Plant Cell Division

Cytoskeleton, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Kinesin superfamily of microtubule dependent motors is present in all eukaryotes. Not all of the subfamilies are represented in all kingdoms, and the ones that are do not always show conserved functions. Tight control of the cytoskeleton is essential for proper progression and completion of mitosis and cytokinesis, and key functions are ...

Intravenous Lipopolysaccharide Challenge in Healthy Participants Reveals Pharmacodynamic Markers in Blood and Bone Marrow for Early‐Phase Oncology Drug Development

Clinical Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
Demonstrating pharmacological effects in early‐phase oncology clinical trials remains challenging, largely due to the lack of robust pharmacodynamic markers. Lipopolysaccharide (LPS) is used as an immune challenge agent in healthy participants to study drugs for autoimmune conditions.

Directional and gradient patterning from sub‐microliter colloidal droplet evaporation on inclined and stretched soft substrates

Droplet, EarlyView.
Instead of suppressing the ubiquitous “coffee‐ring” effect, we harness it by integrating stretching, inclination, and rotation of soft substrates. This sequential control allows manipulation of global pattern symmetry and local morphology. By incorporating substrate inclination and rotation of stretched soft substrates, we create diverse patterns that ...

Embryonic development of the Mediterranean starfish Hacelia attenuata

Developmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Starfish play essential ecological roles as predators and ecosystem regulators; however, detailed developmental descriptions exist for only a handful of species, none of which are from the Mediterranean Sea. Results In this study, we provide the first full account of the development of the Mediterranean starfish Hacelia attenuata ...

Nanofiber PVA‐Based Membranes Incorporating Functionalized Spanish Broom Derivatives for Sustainable Water Purification

ENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
This study investigates Spanish broom (Spartium junceum) as a renewable source for electrospun composite membranes in sustainable water purification. MCC and biochar were functionalized with eco‐friendly precursors and nanomaterials (i.e., HNT, β‐CDs) to develop hybrid PVA nanofiber composites.

Monitoring and assessment for obstructive sleep apnea

FlexMat, EarlyView.
This review systematically classifies Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) monitoring indicators into three categories: physical, biochemical, and electrophysiological indicators, and lists several methods for each category. Abstract Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a common chronic sleep‐disordered breathing disease characterized by recurrent upper airway ...
