Seed Coatings Containing Capsaicin Reduce Seed Removal In Temperate Woody Species, Brian M. Connolly, Francesca Lanni, John L. Orrock, Peter W. Guiden

Biology Faculty Scholarship

Coating seeds in taste-averting chemical defenses (e.g., capsaicin from Capsicum spp.) can reduce rodent seed predation, and thus might promote plant establishment and forest regeneration. However, the efficacy of such seed coatings remains unknown for many woody plant species, and seed coatings have not been evaluated across different habitats where forest managers might seek to promote forest regeneration. We used two complementary seed-removal experiments in closed-canopy forests (Michigan) and an old field undergoing reforestation (New York) to examine whether coating seeds of four native tree species (Acer rubrum, Fagus grandifolia, Pinus banksiana, and Pinus resinosa) with chili …

An Intrinsically Disordered Region Controlling Condensation Of A Circadian Clock Component And Rhythmic Transcription In The Liver, Kun Zhu, Isaac J Celwyn, Dongyin Guan, Yang Xiao, Xiang Wang, Wenxiang Hu, Chunjie Jiang, Lan Cheng, Rafael Casellas, Mitchell A Lazar

Faculty, Staff and Students Publications

Circadian gene transcription is fundamental to metabolic physiology. Here we report that the nuclear receptor REV-ERBα, a repressive component of the molecular clock, forms circadian condensates in the nuclei of mouse liver. These condensates are dictated by an intrinsically disordered region (IDR) located in the protein's hinge region which specifically concentrates nuclear receptor corepressor 1 (NCOR1) at the genome. IDR deletion diminishes the recruitment of NCOR1 and disrupts rhythmic gene transcription in vivo. REV-ERBα condensates are located at high-order transcriptional repressive hubs in the liver genome that are highly correlated with circadian gene repression. Deletion of the IDR disrupts transcriptional …

Faculty, Staff and Student Publications

Congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH) is a relatively common and genetically heterogeneous structural birth defect associated with high mortality and morbidity. We describe eight unrelated families with an X-linked condition characterized by diaphragm defects, variable anterior body-wall anomalies, and/or facial dysmorphism. Using linkage analysis and exome or genome sequencing, we found that missense variants in plastin 3 (PLS3), a gene encoding an actin bundling protein, co-segregate with disease in all families. Loss-of-function variants in PLS3 have been previously associated with X-linked osteoporosis (MIM: 300910), so we used in silico protein modeling and a mouse model to address these seemingly disparate clinical …

D-Shaped Nematode Eggs In The Feces Of Rangifer Tarandus: A Story In Pictures, Olga A. Loginova

MANTER: Journal of Parasite Biodiversity

D-shaped nematode eggs in the feces of Rangifer tarandus are expected to be oxyurid nematodes (Nemata: Oxyurida) of the genus Skrjabinema. The species S. tarandi is considered species-specific for this host. There is no consensus regarding the cross-infection of reindeer and sheep with S. ovis and S. tarandi. The drawings proposed by descriptors complicate differential diagnostics. Micrographs of S. tarandi eggs obtained via light microscopy and scanning electron microscopy as well as photographs of S. ovis eggs and drawings made on their basis are proposed to confidently distinguish between representatives of these two species, taking into account morphometric data. Thus, …

In-Utero Exposure To Antibiotics And Risk Of Colorectal Cancer In A Prospective Cohort Of 18 000 Adult Offspring, Caitlin C Murphy, Piera M Cirillo, Nickilou Y Krigbaum, Amit G Singal, Dean P Jones, Timothy Zaki, Barbara A Cohn

Faculty, Staff and Student Publications

BACKGROUND: Incidence rates of colorectal cancer (CRC) are increasing among younger adults and in mid-life, implicating exposures in early life as risk factors. We examined the association between in-utero exposure to antibiotics and risk of CRC in adult offspring.

METHODS: The Child Health and Development Studies is a prospective cohort of women receiving prenatal care between 1959 and 1966 in Oakland, California, with deliveries through June 1967. Diagnosed conditions and all prescribed medications were abstracted from mothers' medical records beginning 6 months prior to pregnancy through delivery. We identified mothers who received antibiotics in pregnancy, including penicillins, tetracyclines, short-acting sulfonamides …

Dermatophyte Resistance – On The Rise, Ivan R. Bristow, Lovleen Tina Joshi

Peninsula Dental School

Dermatophytes are group of filamentous fungi which have adapted to living on the skin of humans and other animals. In the last decade, reports have emerged from Asia of new dermatophyte strains showing resistance to the commonly used antifungal agent terbinafine and others. The spread of these resistant strains has been noted in many other countries globally. Little is known about the mechanisms or management of this emerging problem. Urgent research and changes to current practice are required if the spread of the infection is to be contained and managed effectively.

Relative Risks Of Adverse Perinatal Outcomes In Three Australian Communities Exposed To Per- And Polyfluoroalkyl Substances: Data Linkage Study, Hd Law, Da Randall, Bk Armstrong, C D’Este, Et Al

School of Health Professions

Introduction: Firefighting foams containing per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) have caused environmental contamination in several Australian residential areas, including Katherine in the Northern Territory (NT), Oakey in Queensland (Qld), and Williamtown in New South Wales (NSW). We examined whether the risks of adverse perinatal outcomes were higher in mothers living in these exposure areas than in selected comparison areas without known contamination. Methods: We linked residential addresses in exposure areas to addresses collected in the jurisdictional Perinatal Data Collections of the NT (1986–2017), Qld (2007–2018), and NSW (1994–2018) to select all pregnancies from mothers who gave birth while living in …

A Review Of Cooling And Lubrication Techniques For ‎Machining Difficult-To-Cut Material, Mayar Ashmawy

Journal of Engineering Research

Superalloys have magnificent properties which make them widely applied in various industrial fields. They possess high mechanical properties such as high strength, high rupture resistance, and high resistance to corrosion and oxidation. Since they can maintain these properties even at elevated temperatures, they face some problems during the cutting and machining process. They are classified as difficult-to-cut alloys, which means that high heat is generated in the cutting zone due to their poor thermal conductivity. In addition, high friction takes place between the tool and the chip. To overcome these problems during their machining process, different cooling and lubrication techniques …

Antioxidant Dimethyl Fumarate Temporarily But Not Chronically Improves Intracortical Microelectrode Performance, George F. Hoeferlin, Tejas Bajwa, Hannah Olivares, Jichu Zhang, Lindsey N. Druschel, Michael Sobota, Pierce E. Boucher, Jonathan L. Duncan, Jeffrey R. Capadona

Faculty Scholarship

Intracortical microelectrode arrays (MEAs) can be used in a range of applications, from basic neuroscience research to providing an intimate interface with the brain as part of a brain-computer interface (BCI) system aimed at restoring function for people living with neurological disorders or injuries. Unfortunately, MEAs tend to fail prematurely, leading to a loss in functionality for many applications. An important contributing factor in MEA failure is oxidative stress resulting from chronically inflammatory-activated microglia and macrophages releasing reactive oxygen species (ROS) around the implant site. Antioxidants offer a means for mitigating oxidative stress and improving tissue health and MEA performance. …
