CAP2 is a regulator of actin pointed end dynamics and myofibrillogenesis in cardiac muscle
The precise assembly of actin-based thin filaments is crucial for muscle contraction. Dysregulation of actin dynamics at thin filament pointed ends...

Morphology, structure, and histochemistry of the inflorescences, fruit, and seed of the Ramón nut, Brosimum alicastrum Sw. subsp. alicastrum CC Berg (Moraceae)
Brosimum alicastrum Sw, known in Mexico as the Ramón nut, is a sustainable resource in the economy of Yucatan, Mexico; the pulp and seed are edible,...

Simple modeling of familial Alzheimer’s disease using human pluripotent stem cell-derived cerebral organoid technology
BackgroundCerebral organoids (COs) are the most advanced in vitro models that resemble the human brain. The use of COs as a model for Alzheimer’s...

Novel FFPE proteomics method suggests prolactin induced protein as hormone induced cytoskeleton remodeling spatial biomarker
Robotically assisted proteomics provides insights into the regulation of multiple proteins achieving excellent spatial resolution. However,...

Anther Wall Formation in Aeonium balsamiferum and A. ciliatum (Crassulaceae)
AbstractSimilarities (features of the family Crassulaceae) and differences in anther development and structure were observed between Aeonium...

MyBP-C: one protein to govern them all
The heart is an extraordinarily versatile pump, finely tuned to respond to a multitude of demands. Given the heart pumps without rest for decades its...

The cryo-EM 3D image reconstruction of isolated Lethocerus indicus Z-discs
The Z-disk of striated muscle defines the ends of the sarcomere, which repeats many times within the muscle fiber. Here we report application of...

Generation of Rabbit Chimeras by Eight-Cell Stage Embryo Injection
Pluripotent stem cell (PSC) injection to the blastocyst stage embryos is a widely used method to evaluate the pluripotency through chimeric...

Distribution of Na+/K+-ATPase-immunoreactive ionocytes varies between two superorders of ray-finned fish: Ostariophysi and Acanthopterygii
Ray-finned fishes of the superorder Ostariophysi are primarily freshwater (FW), and normally stenohaline. Differently, fishes of the superorder...

Morphology of the reproductive tract of females of leaf beetle Chrysomela populi (Chrysomelidae: Coleoptera)
In this study, oocyte development and vitellogenesis of the leaf beetle Chrysomela populi are described and illustrated using light and scanning...

Aging effects on the viscoelastic behaviour of products by fused deposition modelling (FDM) made from recycled and wood-filled polymer resins
In this work, we analyse the thermal aging effects on the thermo-mechanical properties of bio-based specimens realized using fused deposition...

Spermatogenesis in the carnivorous sponge Lycopodina hypogea (Porifera, Demospongiae)
Carnivorous sponges (family Cladorhizidae) lack the aquiferous system and choanocytes and, therefore, their reproduction and in particular...

Nestin expression in intact and hypertrophic myocardium of spontaneously hypertensive rats during aging
Nestin is a unique intermediate filament expressed for a short period in the develo** heart. It was also documented in several cell types of the...

Taxonomic Novelties in Sapranthus (Annonaceae): a new large-sized species endemic to the mountain cloud forest of Central America
Sapranthus (Annonaceae) is a Neotropical genus comprising ten small tree species, most of which inhabit the tropical dry forests of Mexico and...

Calcium-dependent titin–thin filament interactions in muscle: observations and theory
Gaps in our understanding of muscle mechanics demonstrate that the current model is incomplete. Increasingly, it appears that a role for titin in...

From amino-acid to disease: the effects of oxidation on actin-myosin interactions in muscle
Actin-myosin interactions form the basis of the force-producing contraction cycle within the sarcomere, serving as the primary mechanism for muscle...
