The use of egg donation is a clue that there may be an abnormality in the pregnant woman's sex chromosomes Table 1 Considerations with regard to discordant sex-chromosome results Questions to ask the pregnant woman Diagnostic considerations Are you over 35 years old? Somatic loss of X ...

Innovation, the generation of a novel behaviour or use of a known behaviour in a novel context, is one form of behaviour that enables animals to respond to change. By deciphering the mechanisms underlying innovativeness, especially those that explain consistent differences between individuals, we can...
However, the latter has been little investigated. Psittaciformes (parrots and cockatoos) are a good model to investigate these topics, as they are known to use biological control against ectoparasites and to feed on toxic food. We investigated the presence of avian malaria parasites (Plasmodium),...
(Fig.1, far left). As resource density increases, the benefits of maintaining exclusive use of the resource outweigh the costs of defending it, and an individual may behave aggressively, resulting in territoriality (Fig.1, lower threshold). As resources become so plentiful that they can be ...
To investigate whether viruses use a new intracellular pathway recently described to be involved in the nuclear transfer of EV cargo34, we employed VSV-G-pseudotyped HIV-1 Gag-iGFP (hereafter HIV-Gag-iGFP) and HeLa cells as our first model system. Like EVs, it is well established that VS...
A limitation of this study is the use of cross-sectional data to model neurodevelopment. It is well documented that individual variability in neurodevelopment occurs at both the inter-individual and intra-individual level2, and characterizing the factors that explain the latter will be critical for ...

The use of other loci that map to the X chromosome is not recommended because of the sensitivity of methylation to various factors such as drugs, effects of mitosis, nutrition, and more [66]. Moreover, the double digestion with two methylation-sensitive restriction enzymes minimizes the slight ...
