Social context prevents heat hormetic effects against mutagens during fish development
This study shows that sublethal heat stress protects fish embryos against ultraviolet radiation, a concept known as ‘hormesis’. However, chemical stress transmission between fish embryos negates this protective effect. By providing evidence for the mechanistic molecular basis of heat stress hormesis and interindividual stress communication, this study ...

OBSERVATIONS ON THE WATER CONTENT OF BONE [PDF]
1. A method is described by which the relative water contents of adjacent microscopic regions of bone can be assessed. 2. The water content is correlated with the inorganic and organic contents in regions of different age. 3. The results suggest that the age increase in the mineralisation of bone occurs at the expense of both the organic and water ...

The enzyme 5‐lipoxygenase (5‐LOX) catalyzes the first step in the biosynthesis of leukotrienes (LTs) involved in inflammatory pathophysiology. After cellular stimulation, 5‐LOX translocates to the nucleus, interacting with the 5‐LOX‐activating protein (FLAP) to form LTA4 from arachidonic acid (AA).

Comparison of the Mineral Content of Tap Water and Bottled Waters [PDF]
Because of growing concern that constituents of drinking water may have adverse health effects, consumption of tap water in North America has decreased and consumption of bottled water has increased. Our objectives were to 1) determine whether North American tap water contains clinically important levels of calcium (Ca2+), magnesium (Mg2+), and sodium (

Brucella NyxA and NyxB dimerization enhances effector function during infection
Brucella abortus thrives inside cells thanks to the translocation of effector proteins that fine‐tune cellular functions. NyxA and NyxB are two effectors that destabilize the nucleolar localization of their host target, SENP3. We show that the Nyx proteins directly interact with each other and that their dimerization is essential for their function ...

A novel surfactant of N–dodecanoyl–N–(2-hydroxyethyl)–β–alanine (coded as C12–EtOH–βAla) was synthesized by modifying the methyl group of N–dodecanoyl–N–methyl–β–alanine (coded as C12–Me–βAla).
