Skeletal porosity of a cold-water coral increases with decreasing aragonite saturation state along a depth gradient in the Mediterranean Sea [0.03%]
地中海海水深度梯度变化下冷泉珊瑚骨骼孔隙率随文石饱和度降低而增加
Fiorella Prada,Chiara Marchini,Paolo Montagna et al.
Fiorella Prada et al.
Background: Cold-water corals (CWCs) are key ecosystem engineers that create complex three-dimensional habitats much like tropical reefs, but in deep, cold seas. However, like other reef-building systems, they are increas...
Diet change reveals asymmetric response in gene expression and microbial composition across the digestive tract of two closely related herbivores [0.03%]
饮食变化揭示了两种密切相关草食动物消化道基因表达和微生物组成的非对称响应
Danny P Nielsen,Matthew L Holding,Robert E Del Carlo et al.
Danny P Nielsen et al.
Background: Understanding what shapes variation in organisms' capacity to utilize novel resources is essential to predicting how species will respond to environmental change. For herbivores, exposure to toxic phytochemica...
Immunomodulatory role and therapeutic potential of thrombospondin-1 during infectious diseases and autoimmunity [0.03%]
血栓素-1在感染性疾病和自身免疫病中的免疫调节作用及治疗潜力
Francisca Román,Aillairlyn Jara,Agnes Jara-Collao et al.
Francisca Román et al.
Infectious diseases and autoimmunity are leading causes of mortality worldwide. The lack of vaccines and resistance to current treatments by microbes highlight the importance of developing novel therapeutics. Similarly, treatments for autoi...
Evolutionary conservation and adaptability of cholecystokinin neuropeptide signaling in the sea cucumber Apostichopus japonicus [0.03%]
海参中胆囊收缩素神经肽信号的进化保守性和适应性研究——以 Apostichopus japonicus 为例
Huachen Liu,Hongliang Yang,Xiang Tian et al.
Huachen Liu et al.
Background: Food ingestion is fundamental for animal survival and growth, with the cessation of feeding upon nutrient fulfillment being tightly regulated by a variety of satiety factors. Notably, sulfakinin/cholecystokini...
Libo Zhu,Jiaying He,Xiaochun Xu et al.
Libo Zhu et al.
Background: Endometriosis is a chronic inflammatory disorder affecting ~ 10% of reproductive-age women, often causing pelvic pain and infertility. Despite its prevalence, diagnosis remains delayed due to non-specific symp...
Evidence for dual pathways of Tc1/mariner domestication in Drosophila [0.03%]
果蝇Tc1/马内里转座子的 Domestication 的两种途径的确证
Iuliia O Guseva,Alexander P Rezvykh,Elena S Zelentsova et al.
Iuliia O Guseva et al.
Background: The domestication of transposable elements is a key source of evolutionary innovation, yet the pathways by which their functional modules are repurposed by the host remain poorly understood. The Tc1/mariner su...
Satellitome analysis of the black soldier fly Hermetia illucens reveals genome organization, interstocks dynamics, and insights into centromeric and telomeric repeat composition [0.03%]
利用卫星DNA分析黑兵蝇(Hermetia illucens)基因组结构、种群间动态和着丝粒及端粒重复序列组成的新见解
Rhavenna Thais Alves-Gomes,Pablo Mora,José Manuel Rico-Porras et al.
Rhavenna Thais Alves-Gomes et al.
Background: Hermetia illucens (Diptera: Stratiomyidae), commonly known as the black soldier fly (BSF), is a species of growing industrial interest due to its efficiency in organic waste conversion and protein-rich biomass...
Junzhe Liu,Yonghui Lv,Zhihong Zhou et al.
Junzhe Liu et al.
Background: While the central dogma outlines DNA-to-protein information flow, existing gene regulators mainly target transcription. Here, we developed the λN-Guided RNA Targeting System (λGRTS), a CRISPR-independent pla...
