Cyclic nucleotide signaling as a drug target in retinitis pigmentosa
Disruptions in cGMP and cAMP signaling can contribute to retinal dysfunction and photoreceptor loss in retinitis pigmentosa. This perspective examines the mechanisms and evaluates emerging evidence on targeting these pathways as a potential therapeutic strategy to slow or prevent retinal degeneration.

The yield and post-yield behavior of high-density polyethylene [PDF]
An experimental and analytical evaluation was made of the yield and post-yield behavior of high-density polyethylene, a semi-crystalline thermoplastic. Polyethylene was selected for study because it is very inexpensive and readily available in the form ...

The nonlinear viscoelastic behavior of polypropylene [PDF]
A series of tensile relaxation tests is performed on isotactic polypropylene in the sub-yield and post-yield regions at room temperature. Constitutive equations are derived for the time-dependent response of a semicrystalline polymer at isothermal ...

TRAF2 binds to TIFA via a novel motif and contributes to its autophagic degradation
TRAF family members couple receptor signalling complexes to downstream outputs, but how they interact with these complexes is not always clear. Here, we show that during ADP‐heptose signalling, TRAF2 binding to TIFA requires two short sequence motifs in the C‐terminal tail of TIFA, which are distinct from the TRAF6 binding motif.

Hevea brasiliensis: results from the cambodian large scale clone trials in 2011 [PDF]
In order to update the clonal recommendations in Cambodia, a set of 14 Large Scale Clonal Trials (LSCT) was analysed globally for 36 clones, based on linear adjustments of the data from each trial. Although this method was statistically not very powerful,

Exposure to common noxious agents (1), including allergens, pollutants, and micro‐nanoplastics, can cause epithelial barrier damage (2) in our body's protective linings. This may trigger an immune response to our microbiome (3). The epithelial barrier theory explains how this process can lead to chronic noncommunicable diseases (4) affecting organs ...

Characterization of the potential yield of clone IRCA230 [PDF]
The experiment on Yield Potential Comparison on S/2 d3 and S/2d4 Tapping Systems of Clones IRCA230 were practiced on farm research at Chup Rubber Research Station of Cambodian Rubber Research Institute (CRRI). The experimental design was the RCBD with 8

Global pattern for the effect of climate and land cover on water yield
Research results on the effects of land cover change on water resources vary greatly and the topic remains controversial. Here we use published data worldwide to examine the validity of Fuh’s equation, which relates annual water yield (R) to a wetness ...
