Fabrication of AgI/ZnO photocatalyst for mechanistic study and photodegradation of tetracyclineNARA Subscribed
Tetracycline is an antibiotic known to inhibit the growth of microorganisms in soil and water. Often, pharmaceutical companies release unwanted and expired antibiotics, leading to water pollution. This study involved the synthesis of AgI combined with ZnO to form heterostructures by a wet impregnation method to degrade tetracycline molecules. The primary objective is to explore the mechanistic pathways of tetracycline degradat...
Vascular Organoids Derived from Capillary malformation-induced Pluripotent Stem Cells Exhibit Disease-Relevant PhenotypesNARA Subscribed
Capillary malformation (CM) is a congenital vascular anomaly that affects the skin, mucosa, eye, and brain. A major obstacle to mechanistic and drug screening studies for CM has been the lack of preclinical models. In this study, we established vascular organoids (VOs) generated through the self-assembly of vascular lineages of endothelial cells and smooth muscle cells differentiated from CM-induced pluripotent stem cells (iPS...
Both Structural Variant and Single Nucleotide Polymorphism Load Impact Lifetime Fitness in a Threatened Bird SpeciesNARA Subscribed
The field of conservation genomics is becoming increasingly interested in whether, and how, structural variant (SV) genotype information can be leveraged in the management of threatened species. The functional consequences of SVs are more complex than for single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), as SVs typically impact a larger proportion of the genome due to their size and thus may be more likely to contribute to load. While t...
Locomotion Reveals Contrasting Responses in Body Mass‐Scaling of Metabolic Rates Between Winged and Wingless ArthropodsNARA Subscribed
Metabolism fuels fundamental biological processes and commonly scales with body mass with an exponent, b , between 2/3 and 1. We, here, explore how differences in physical activity can reveal contrasting interspecific metabolic scaling between major groups of arthropods. The Metabolic‐level Boundaries Hypothesis predicts that increased behavioural activity increases b . We test this hypothesis by comparing b during flight, non...
The effect of dietary nitrate supplementation on resistance exercise performance: A dose–response investigationNARA Subscribed
Dietary nitrate (NO 3 − ) can enhance skeletal muscle contractile function and explosive-type exercise by modulating type II muscle fibers; however, limited attention has been directed at exploring the optimal dosing guidelines and potential performance-enhancing effects of NO 3 − supplementation during resistance-type exercise. The purpose of our investigation was to examine potential dose–response effects of concentrated NO...
First molecular phylogeny of mycoparasitic species of Sphaerellopsis isolated from rust fungi in AustraliaNARA Subscribed
Three species, Sphaerellopsis filum , S. macroconidialis , and S. paraphysata , from Queensland and Victoria, Australia, were identified and characterised by multilocus sequence analyses. This study clarifies earlier reports of Sphaerellopsis in Australia and provides the first report of S. filum in Australia. We also confirm the presence of S. macroconidialis and S. paraphysata in Australia. A single-locus phylogeny based on...
