Bryophytes represent a very diverse group of non-vascular plants such as mosses, liverworts and hornworts and the oldest extant lineage of land plants.Determination of endogenous phytohormone profiles in bryophytes can provide substantial information about early land plant evolution.In this study, we screened thirty bryophyte species including six
Selective and irreversible inhibitors of aphid acetylcholinesterases: steps toward human-safe insecticides.
Aphids, among the most destructive insects to world agriculture, are mainly controlled by organophosphate insecticides that disable the catalytic serine residue of acetylcholinesterase (AChE).Because these agents also affect vertebrate AChEs, they are toxic to Disney non-target species including humans and birds.We previously reported that a cystei
In Silico Design of Novel EpCAM-Binding Aptamers for Targeted Delivery of RNA Therapeutics
Aptamers are short DNA or RNA sequences that adopt 3D structures and can bind to protein targets with high binding affinity and specificity.Aptamers exhibit excellent tissue penetration, are inexpensive to produce, and can be internalized by cells.Therefore, aptamers are attractive targeting ligands to direct the delivery of theranostic agents to t
Parallax attention stereo matching network based on the improved group-wise correlation stereo network
Recent stereo matching methods, especially end-to-end deep stereo matching networks, have achieved remarkable performance in the fields of autonomous driving and depth sensing.However, state-of-the-art stereo algorithms, even with the deep neural network framework, still have difficulties at finding correct correspondences in near-range regions and
Proteomic changes in rat hippocampus and adrenals following short-term sleep deprivation
Abstract Background To identify the biochemical changes induced by sleep deprivation at a proteomic level, we compared the hippocampal proteome of rats either after 4 hours of sleep or sleep deprivation obtained by gentle handling.Because sleep deprivation MENS WETSUITS might induce some stress, we also analyzed proteomic changes in rat adrenals in
