Distribution and population structure in the naked goby Gobiosoma bosc (Perciformes: Gobiidae) along a salinity gradient in two western Atlantic estuaries Citation metadata
(2018-08-07)Many species of fish produce larvae that undergo a prolonged dispersal phase. However, evidence from a number of recent studies on demersal fishes suggests that the dispersal of propagules may not be strongly correlated ... -
Divergent roles of superoxide and nitric oxide in liver ischemia and reperfusion injury
(2011)Liver ischemia and reperfusion-induced injury is a major clinical complication associated with hemorrhagic or endotoxin shock and thermal injury as well as liver transplantation and resectional surgery. Data obtained from ... -
Diverse Misfolded Conformational Strains and Cross-seeding of Misfolded Proteins Implicated in Neurodegenerative Diseases
(2019-07-09)Numerous neurodegenerative diseases including prion, Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s diseases are characterized by accumulation of protein aggregates in brain. Prion disease is unique in that the natively folded prion protein ... -
Diversity in warning coloration: selective paradox or the norm?
(2018-08-27)Aposematic theory has historically predicted that predators should select for warning signals to converge on a single form, as a result of frequency‐dependent learning. However, widespread variation in warning signals is ... -
Diversity of the arctic deep-sea benthos
(2011-02-11)A benthic species inventory of 1,125 taxa was compiled from various sources for the central Arctic deeper than 500 m, and bounded to the Atlantic by Fram Strait. The inventory was dominated by arthropods (366 taxa), ... -
DNA methylation analyses identify an intronic ZDHHC6 locus associated with time to recurrent stroke in the Vitamin Intervention for Stroke Prevention (VISP) clinical trial
(2021-07-12)Aberrant DNA methylation profiles have been implicated in numerous cardiovascular diseases; however, few studies have investigated how these epigenetic modifications contribute to stroke recurrence. The aim of this study ... -
Docosahexaenoic acid counteracts palmitate-induced endoplasmic reticulum stress in C2C12 myotubes: Impact on muscle atrophy
(2017-12)Lipid accumulation in skeletal muscle results in dysregulation of protein meta- bolism and muscle atrophy. We previously reported that treating C2C12 myo- tubes with palmitate (PA), a saturated fatty acid, increases the ... -
Does Land Degradation Increase Poverty in Developing Countries?
(2016-05-11)Land degradation is a global problem that particularly impacts the poor rural inhabitants of low and middle-income countries. We improve upon existing literature by estimating the extent of rural populations in 2000 and ... -

The Dopamine D3 Receptor Knockout Mouse Mimics Aging-Related Changes in Autonomic Function and Cardiac Fibrosis
(2013-08-30)Blood pressure increases with age, and dysfunction of the dopamine D3 receptor has been implicated in the pathogenesis of hypertension. To evaluate the role of the D3 receptor in aging-related hypertension, we assessed ... -
Dose-Dependent Effects of GLD-2 and GLD-1 on Germline Differentiation and Dedifferentiation in the Absence of PUF-8
(2020-01-24)PUMILIO/FBF (PUF) proteins have a conserved function in stem cell regulation. Caenorhabditis elegans PUF-8 protein inhibits the translation of target mRNAs by interacting with PUF binding element (PBE) in the 30 untranslated ... -
A double-blind, randomized, multicenter phase 2 study of prasugrel versus placebo in adult patients with sickle cell disease
(2013-02)Background Platelet activation has been implicated in the pathogenesis of sickle cell disease (SCD) suggesting antiplatelet agents may be therapeutic. To evaluate the safety of prasugrel, a thienopyridine antiplatelet ... -
Driving Decisions: Distinguishing Evaluations, Providers and Outcomes
(2018-05-11)Driving is a highly valued instrumental activity of daily living on which many older adults depend for access to their community. The demand to address driving is changing as older adults experience increasing longevity ... -
Driving innovation through big open linked data (BOLD): Exploring antecedents using interpretive structural modelling
(2016-07-13)Innovation is vital to find new solutions to prob- lems, increase quality, and improve profitability. Big open linked data (BOLD) is a fledgling and rapidly evolving field that creates new opportunities for innovation. ... -
Drosophila Ctf4 is essential for efficient DNA replication and normal cell cycle progression
(2011-04-06)Proper coordination of the functions at the DNA replication fork is vital to the normal functioning of a cell. Specifically the precise coordination of helicase and polymerase activity is crucial for efficient passage ... -
Drosophila Oocytes as a Model for Understanding Meiosis: An Educational Primer to Accompany “Corolla Is a Novel Protein That Contributes to the Architecture of the Synaptonemal Complex of Drosophila”
(2015-01)Achieving a thorough understanding of the events and ramifications of meiosis is a common learning objective for undergraduate introductory biology, genetics, and cell biology courses. Meiosis is also one of the most ... -
Drug-resistance in doxorubicin-resistant FL5.12 hematopoietic cells: elevated MDR1, drug efflux and side-population positive and decreased BCL2-family member expression
(2017-12-06)Chemotherapeutic drug treatment can result in the emergence of drug-resistant cells. By culturing an interleukin-3 (IL-3)-dependent cell line, FL5.12 cells in the presence of the chemotherapeutic drug doxorubicin, we ... -
Dynamic modeling of public and private decision-making for hurricane risk management including insurance, acquisition, and mitigation policy
(2022-06-08)We develop a computational framework for the stochastic and dynamic modeling of regional natural catastrophe losses with an insurance industry to support government decision-making for hurricane risk management. The analysis ... -
Early cell loss associated with mesenchymal stem cell cardiomyoplasty
(2012-03-01)Background: Human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs) show potential for therapeutic cellular cardiomyoplasty. However, a range of delivery methods, including direct intramyocardial injection, have resulted in poor engraftment ... -
