COMPLETE MITOGENOME OF HAINAN MEDAKA ORYZIAS CURVINOTUS (TELEOSTEI: BELONIFORMES) AND TRANSCRIPTIONAL DIFFERENCES BETWEEN MALE AND FEMALE LIVER

Complete mitogenome of Hainan medaka Oryzias curvinotus (Teleostei: Beloniformes) and transcriptional differences between male and female liver

In this study, combining the liver transcripts from both sexes by RNA-Seq with DNA sequences by conventional PCRs, we have Laundry Basket determined the complete mitogenome of Hainan medaka Oryzias curvinotus collected from the mangrove seawater of the Leizhou Peninsula in tropical South China (Accession no.: KY364884).The mitochondrial genome is 1

The contribution of tephra constituents during biogenic silica determination: implications for soil and palaeoecological studies

Biogenic silica (BSi) is used as a proxy by soil scientists to identify biological effects on the Si cycle and by palaeoecologists to study environmental changes.Alkaline extractions are typically used to measure BSi in both terrestrial and aquatic environments.The dissolution properties of volcanic glass in tephra deposits and their nanocrystallin

Quantifying Podocyte Number in a Small Sample Size of Glomeruli with CUBIC to Evaluate Podocyte Depletion of db/db Mice

The loss of podocyte is crucial for diagnosis and prognosis of diabetic kidney disease, whereas commonly two-dimensional methods for quantifying podocyte number existed with issues of low fidelity and accuracy.In this study, clear, unobstructed brain imaging cocktails and computational analysis (CUBIC), one of three-dimensional optical clearing app
