Shear Wave Optical Coherence Elastography and Structural Analysis of the Postnatal Mouse Cornea through Development

open access: yesJournal of Biophotonics, EarlyView.
This paper investigates the geometrical and biomechanical properties of neonatal eyes at the early stages of development. We found that the corneal thickness is uncoupled from elastic wave speed and that the content and organization of the cornea primarily influence its mechanical properties.

Corticosterone and Mitochondrial Efficiency Are Associated With Changes in DNA Oxidative Damage During an Acute Stress Response in Leach's Storm‐Petrels (Hydrobates leucorhous)

open access: yesJournal of Experimental Zoology Part A: Ecological and Integrative Physiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The ability of organisms to effectively respond to challenges is critical for survival. We investigated how an acute stressor affected corticosterone, mitochondrial function, and DNA oxidative damage in a wild population of Leach's storm‐petrels (Hydrobates leucorhous).

Calpain Proteases and the Evolving Signaling Network in Insect Embryonic Patterning

open access: yesJournal of Experimental Zoology Part B: Molecular and Developmental Evolution, EarlyView.
Insect embryonic Dorsal‐Ventral (DV) patterning relies on the BMP and Toll pathways to different extents. Calcium‐dependent cystein proteases of the Calpain family also exert an important function to pattern the DV axis. In Drosophila, Calpain A cleaves the Cactus/IkappaB inhibitor and modifies Toll signals in ventral regions of the embryo. In Rhodnius

The Contribution of Zn Uptake and Grain Zn Loading Intensity to Achieving Zn Biofortification Breeding Targets in Rice

open access: yesJournal of Plant Nutrition and Soil Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Increasing Zinc (Zn) concentrations in rice grains is targeted in Zn‐biofortification breeding but most rice varieties have grain Zn concentrations far below breeding targets. Aims High‐Zn donors have been identified and our aim is to investigate whether higher grain Zn concentrations in these donors were the result of superior Zn ...
