a, Time course of regeneration following cryoinjury. Acid fuchsin orange G (AFOG) staining of the ventricular apex post cryoinjury.b, The size of the ventricular wound decreased with time. Data are the mean ± s.e.m. ofn = 6 (7 d.p.ci.), 4 (14 and 210 d.p.ci.)...
characteristics of different TE families might confer them with different potential to be exapted. TEs can contain different functional ORFs encoding proteins with various properties such as endonucleases, integrases, transposases, reverse transcriptases and other proteins with DNA/RNA/protein-binding domain...
Since the discovery ofXist(Brown et al.1992), a long noncoding RNA that directs inactivation of the mammalian X chromosome, our understanding of the role RNAs play in chromosome biology has expanded well beyond the fundamental “RNA codes for proteins” dogma. The vast majority of RNAs produce...
Phenotypic sex was assessed using secondary sex characteristics (dorsal and anal fin shape) and confirmed with gonad biopsy of 6-month adult fish. Genotyping was performed with PCR and primers of PG17.5–17.6 to amplify a dmy-specific fragment and a fragment from dmrt1 of medaka (Matsuda et ...
CQDs, an emerging class of zero-dimensional carbonaceous nanomaterials less than 10 nm in size, are attractive alternatives to semiconductor photocatalysts as they offer strong photoresponsiveness, redox properties, stability, nontoxic characteristics, and facile tunability16. CQDs typically consist of a...
Male zebrafish from our selectively bred High Stationary Behavior line (see [29] for line characteristics) were subjected to one of four treatments: a racemic mixture of fluoxetine (n = 30), R-fluoxetine (n = 12), S-fluoxetine (n = 12), or our solvent (water) as a control (n = 42...
From these data, it is evident that BBS-GC molecules partially occlude the SBA-15 pores, introducing severe modifications on the surface characteristics of the final system but adding new properties due to the BBS-GC functional groups. In order to identify these new behaviours, BBS-SBA was empl...
Therefore, ZnO has always been a popular material in the research of metal oxide semiconductors. Numerous studies have shown that doping, noble metal mod- ification and the establishment of heterostructures can effectively improve the gas sensing characteristics of zinc oxide [19–22]. Among them, ...
Current research has focused on increasing the specific surface area (SSA) and controlling the pore size distribution (PSD), since the adsorption capacity is closely related to the textural characteristics of the carbon materials [22–24]. For example, Leventis et al. [25,26] reported that ...
