Evaluation of ram semen motility by a swim-up technique [PDF]

open access: yesReproduction, 1993
The turbidity formed as ram spermatozoa swam up into a clear medium was measured using a colorimeter and this was used as an objective index of sperm motility. Wavelengths of 470-475 nm yielded higher optical densities (OD) than did 520-640 nm. The recommended distance between the light beam and semen-medium interface, and operation temperature were 5 ...

Polar features in the flagellar propulsion of E. coli bacteria

open access: yes, 2015
E. coli bacteria swim following a run and tumble pattern. In the run state all flagella join in a single helical bundle that propels the cell body along approximately straight paths.

The role of cross-training in swim-related injuries in master’s swimmers [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Orthopedic injuries often interfere with Masters athletes’ pursuit of better performance and might place economic burden on these athletes. PURPOSE: We determined if the incidence of injuries increases with age and the economic burden associated with ...

Pregnancy outcome after IUI for male and idiopathic infertility using a new simplified method for sperm preparation

open access: yesMiddle East Fertility Society Journal, 2012
Introduction: Intrauterine insemination (IUI) is a valid treatment for infertility with a cumulative pregnancy rate of 40–90% after 3–10 treatment cycles.

On the distribution and swim pressure of run-and-tumble particles in confinement [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The spatial and orientational distribution in a dilute active suspension of non-Brownian run-and-tumble spherical swimmers confined between two planar hard walls is calculated theoretically. Using a kinetic model based on coupled bulk/surface probability

Modeling and Swimming Property Characterizations of Scaled-Up Helical Microswimmers [PDF]

open access: yesIEEE/ASME Transactions on Mechatronics, 2014
Micro- and nanorobots capable of controlled propulsion at low Reynolds number are foreseen to change many aspects of medicine by enabling targeted diagnosis and therapy, and minimally invasive surgery. Several kinds of helical swimmers with different heads actuated by a rotating magnetic field have been proposed in prior works.

Adenosine‐to‐inosine editing of miR‐200b‐3p is associated with the progression of high‐grade serous ovarian cancer

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
A‐to‐I editing of miRNAs, particularly miR‐200b‐3p, contributes to HGSOC progression by enhancing cancer cell proliferation, migration and 3D growth. The edited form is linked to poorer patient survival and the identification of novel molecular targets.

A synthetic benzoxazine dimer derivative targets c‐Myc to inhibit colorectal cancer progression

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Benzoxazine dimer derivatives bind to the bHLH‐LZ region of c‐Myc, disrupting c‐Myc/MAX complexes, which are evaluated from SAR analysis. This increases ubiquitination and reduces cellular c‐Myc. Impairing DNA repair mechanisms is shown through proteomic analysis.
