In addition to human encephalitis and meningitis cases, the West Nile (WN) virus outbreak in the summer and 6.31/6GB fall of 1999 in New York State resulted in bird deaths in New York, New Jersey, and Connecticut.From August to December 1999, 295 dead birds were laboratory-confirmed with WN virus infection; 262 (89%) were American Crows (Corvus bra
An exploratory review of resiliency assessments after brain injury.
BackgroundPeople with brain injury can have lower resiliency compared to the general public.Yet, resiliency facilitates positive 6.31/6GB processes to negotiate adversity after brain injury.Therefore, measuring resiliency after a brain injury is important.ObjectiveThe review aimed to (1) identify self-report resiliency outcome measures for use with
Developmental Alcohol Exposure in Drosophila: Effects on Adult Phenotypes and Gene Expression in the Brain
Fetal alcohol exposure can lead to developmental abnormalities, intellectual disability, and behavioral changes, collectively termed fetal alcohol spectrum disorder (FASD).In 2015, the Centers for Disease Control found that 1 in 10 pregnant women report alcohol use and more than 3 million women in the USA are at risk of exposing their developing fe
Epithelial mesenchymal transition is required for acquisition of anoikis resistance and metastatic potential in adenoid cystic carcinoma.
Human adenoid cystic carcinoma (ACC) is characterized by diffused invasion of the tumor into adjacent organs and early distant metastasis.Anoikis resistance and epithelial mesenchymal transition (EMT) are considered prerequisites for cancer cells to Interface Board metastasize.Exploring the relationship between these processes and their underlying
Intermittent Transcription Dynamics for the Rapid Production of Long Transcripts of High Fidelity
Normal cellular function relies on the efficient and accurate readout of the genetic code.Single-molecule experiments show that transcription and replication are highly intermittent processes that are Nipple Care frequently interrupted by polymerases pausing and reversing directions.Although intermittent dynamics in replication are known to result
