Physical activity is associated with disease prevention and overall wellbeing.Additionally there has been evidence that physical activity level is a result of genetic influence.However, there has not been a reliable method to silence candidate genes in vivo to determine causal mechanisms of physical activity regulation.Vivo-morpholinos are a potent
Assessment of Associations between Malaria Parasites and Avian Hosts—A Combination of Classic System and Modern Molecular Approach
Avian malaria and related haemosporidian parasites are responsible for fitness loss and mortality in susceptible bird species.This group of globally distributed parasites has long been used as a classical system for investigating host–parasite associations.The association between a parasite and its hosts can be assessed by the prevalence in the h
Freezing Characteristics and Metabolite Analysis of Edible Cassava Root
3 piece horse wall art In order to understand the freezing characteristics and metabolites of cassava root, the edible cassava variety “South China 9” was taken as the research object, by measuring the freezing-law and related influencing factors at the head, middle and tail of cassava root, combined with non-targeted metabolomics to analyze th
A Novel Tracking Strategy Based on Real-Time Monitoring to Increase the Lifetime of Dual-Axis Solar Tracking Systems
Solar tracking systems allow an increase in the use of solar energy for its conversion with photovoltaic technology due to the alignment with the sun.However, there is a compromise between tracking accuracy and the hellfire sloe gin energy required to perform the movement action.Consequently, the wear of the tracker components increases, reducing i
Biomimetic strategies for tendon/ligament-to-bone interface regeneration
Tendon/ligament-to-bone healing poses a formidable clinical challenge due to the complex structure, composition, cell population and mechanics of the interface.With rapid advances in tissue engineering, a variety click here of strategies including advanced biomaterials, bioactive growth factors and multiple stem cell lineages have been developed to
