CHELIDONICHTHYS LUCERNA (LINNAEUS, 1758) POPULATION STRUCTURE IN THE NORTHEAST ATLANTIC INFERRED FROM LANDMARK-BASED BODY MORPHOMETRY

Chelidonichthys lucerna (Linnaeus, 1758) Population Structure in the Northeast Atlantic Inferred from Landmark-Based Body Morphometry

The study of geometric morphometrics among stocks has proven to be a valuable tool in delineating fish spatial distributions and discriminating distinct population units.Variations in fish body morphology can be linked to genetic factors or to phenotypic adaptability in response to environmental variables.The tub gurnard (Chelidonichthys lucerna) i

Potential Use of 3D CORAGRAF-Loaded PDGF-BB in PLGA Microsphere Seeded Mesenchymal Stromal Cells in Enhancing the Repair of Calvaria Critical-Size Bone Defect in Rat Model

Our previous study evidenced that the 3D CORAGRAF loaded with PLGA microsphere constitutes PDGF-BB can support cell attachment and proliferation and can induce an osteogenic commitment of mesenchymal stromal cells in the in vitro condition.However, how this construct can perform in pathophysiological conditions in terms of repairing critical bone d

The mitochondrial T16189C polymorphism is associated with coronary artery disease in Middle European populations.

BackgroundThe pivotal role of mitochondria in energy production and free radical generation suggests that the mitochondrial genome could have an important influence on the expression of multifactorial age related diseases.Substitution of T to C at nucleotide position 16189 in the hypervariable D-loop of the control region (CR) of mitochondrial DNA
