Article Abstract

Two surveys of over 1,700 publications whose authors use quantitative real-time PCR (qPCR) reveal a lack of transparent and comprehensive reporting of essential technical information. Reporting standards are significantly improved in publications that cite the Minimum Information for Publication of Quantitative Real-Time PCR Experiments (MIQE) guidelines, although such publications are still vastly outnumbered by those that do not.

Background: Alzheimer's disease (AD) patients and animal models exhibit an altered gut microbiome that is associated with pathological changes in the brain. Intestinal miRNA enters bacteria and regulates bacterial metabolism and proliferation. This study aimed to investigate whether the manipulation of miRNA could alter the gut microbiome and AD pathologies.

Neurotoxic Effects of 4-Hydroxy-4'-Isopropoxydiphenylsulfone Exposure on Zebrafish Embryos.

Environ Pollut

The central nervous system (CNS) is particularly vulnerable to endocrine-disrupting chemicals, especially bisphenol analogues. Bisphenol A (BPA), a widely studied compound, has been associated with various neurological disorders, leading to restrictions on its use and the subsequent adoption of alternative chemicals such as 4-hydroxy-4'-isopropoxydiphenylsulfone (BPSIP). However, concerns regarding the potential neurotoxicity of BPSIP have emerged.

The ability of parasitoid wasps to precisely locate hosts in complex environments is a key factor in suppressing pest populations. Chemical communication plays an essential role in mediating insect behaviors such as locating food sources, hosts, and mates. Odorant receptors (ORs) are the key connection between external odors and olfactory nerves.

Background: We conducted a transcriptomic analysis to examine cerebellar transcriptional changes in a mouse model of chronic intermittent alcohol exposure.

Methods: We established a mouse model of chronic intermittent alcohol exposure and conducted a cerebellar transcriptomic analysis. After identifying differentially expressed genes, we analyzed pathway enrichment using the Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes and Gene Ontology.

Unlabelled: Passive Acoustic Mapping (PAM) is rapidly emerging as a ubiquitous tool for real-time localization and monitoring of therapeutic ultrasound treatments involving cavitation in the context of safety or efficacy. The ability of PAM to spatially quantify and resolve cavitation activity offers a unique opportunity to correlate the energy of cavitation phenomena with locally observed bioeffects.

Objective: We aim to develop methods of measuring and reporting spatio-temporally varying cavitation energies that are energy-preserving, device-independent, and adequately normalized to the volume of tissue being affected by the reported cavitation activity.
