The proteome of extracellular vesicles released by clastic cells differs based on their substrate
(2019-07-10)
Extracellular vesicles (EVs) from osteoclasts are important regulators in intercellular communication. Here, we investigated the proteome of EVs from clastic cells plated on plastic
(clasts), bone (osteoclasts) and dentin ...
Understanding the Loss of Maternal Care in Avian Brood Parasites Using Preoptic Area Transcriptome Comparisons in Brood Parasitic and Non-parasitic Blackbirds
(2019-02-13)
Parental care is critical for offspring survival in many species. However, parental behaviors have
been lost in roughly 1% of avian species known as the obligate brood parasites. To shed light on molecular
and neurobiological ...
Tissue stiffness at the human maternal–fetal interface
(2019-10-03)
STUDY QUESTION:
What is the stiffness (elastic modulus) of human nonpregnant secretory phase endometrium, first trimester decidua, and placenta?
SUMMARY ANSWER:
The stiffness of decidua basalis, the site of placental ...
Trends and Costs Associated With Suboptimal Physical Activity Among US Women With Cardiovascular Disease
(2019-04-12)
IMPORTANCE: Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the leading cause of death and disability among
women. Achievement of recommended physical activity (PA) levels is an essential component of
CVD management.
OBJECTIVE: To ...
The variability of song variability in zebra finch (Taeniopygia guttata) populations
(2019-05-15)
Birdsong is a classic example of a learned social behaviour. Song behaviour is also influenced by genetic factors, and understanding the relative contributions of genetic and environmental influences remains a major goal. ...
α-Klotho Expression in Mouse Tissues Following Acute Exhaustive Exercise
(2019-12-10)
α-Klotho, a multifunctional protein, has been demonstrated to protect tissues from
injury via anti-oxidation and anti-inflammatory effects. The expression of α-klotho is
regulated by several physiological and pathological ...
What Do Program Directors Look for in an Applicant?
(2019-05-01)
Program directors (PDs) are faced with an
increasing number of applicants to emergency medicine
(EM) and a limited number of positions. This article will provide candidates with insight to what PDs look for in an applicant. ...
Neuroleptanalgesia for acute abdominal pain: a systematic review
(2019-02-26)
Background: Acute abdominal pain (AAP) comprises up to 10% of all emergency department (ED) visits. Current pain management practice is moving toward multi-modal analgesia
regimens that decrease opioid use.
Objective: ...
Mitsui-7, heat-treated, and nitrogen-doped multi-walled carbon nanotubes elicit genotoxicity in human lung epithelial cells.
(2019-10-07)
Background:
The unique physicochemical properties of multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNT) have led to many industrial applications. Due to their low density and small size, MWCNT are easily aerosolized in the workplace ...
Kinetics and Identities of Extracellular Peptidases in Subsurface Sediments of the White Oak River Estuary, North Carolina
(2019-09-17)
Anoxic subsurface sediments contain communities of heterotrophic microorganisms that metabolize organic carbon at extraordinarily low rates. In order to assess the mechanisms by which subsurface microorganisms access ...
