Article Abstract

Enlargement of the bulboventricular foramen (BVF) in double-inlet left ventricle or the ventricular septal defect (VSD) in tricuspid atresia with transposition of the great arteries is one approach for prevention or treatment of systemic ventricular outflow obstruction. Most often, BVF/VSD restriction is bypassed preemptively or addressed directly at the time of Glenn/Fontan procedures as part of staged univentricular palliation. We describe a patient who underwent enlargement of a restrictive VSD during Fontan completion and subsequently presented with an asymptomatic pseudoaneurysm of the right ventricle at the ventriculotomy site.

Plant evolution has been greatly influenced by polyploidization phenomena. Polyploid plants yield more and are more resistant to unfavorable environments than their diploid relatives. The triploid block, a postzygotic barrier that causes failure of endosperm development and thus seed arrest, often prevents polyploid breeding.

Interploidy hybridization between diploid and tetraploid has been an important approach to develop triploid hybrids in horticultural plants including citrus for seedless breeding. However, dysregulation of imprinted genes can lead to the failure of endosperm cellularization, resulting in abortion of triploid embryos before seed maturity, thereby impeding the efficiency of triploid generation. The identification of imprinted genes is essential for comprehending the impact of imprinting on endosperm cellularization and mitigating embryo abortion in interploidy hybridization.

Background: Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) repair has historically had poor outcomes and fell out of favor in the 1980s with the majority of surgeons opting to do an ACL reconstruction instead due to the high failure rate. The Bridge-Enhanced ACL Restoration or BEAR technique utilizes a de-cellularized, bovine-derived, type I collagen implant to aid in the ACL repair. The device is implanted to augment the healing of the ACL.

Speciation involves reproductive isolation, which can occur by hybridization barriers acting in the endosperm of the developing seed. The nuclear endosperm is a nutrient sink, accumulating sugars from surrounding tissues, and undergoes coordinated cellularization, switching to serve as a nutrient source for the developing embryo. Tight regulation of cellularization is therefore vital for seed and embryonic development.
