Stress preconditioning of spreading depression in the locust CNS.
Cortical spreading depression (CSD) is closely associated with important Handheld Games Mattel New/Sealed pathologies including stroke, seizures and migraine.The mechanisms underlying SD in its various forms are still incompletely understood.Here we describe SD-like events in an invertebrate model, the ventilatory central pattern generator (CPG) of
Ancient Transcription Factors in the News
ABSTRACT In every cell from bacteria to mammals, NusG-like proteins bind transcribing RNA polymerase to modulate the rate of nascent RNA synthesis and to coordinate it with numerous cotranscriptional processes that ultimately determine the transcript fate.Housekeeping NusG factors regulate expression of the Display Figure bulk of the genome, wherea
Gendered exposure, vulnerability, and response: Malaria risk in a changing climate in Western Kenya
Climate change has been linked to increasing rates of malaria infection in Western Kenya.Projections show an increased risk of malaria infection under climate change scenarios, impacting vulnerable populations and placing millions of people at risk.Developing suitable risk management strategies requires understanding the hazard, exposure, vulnerabi
