The development of antibiotic-resistant microorganisms prompted the investigation of possible antibiotic substitutes. As a result, the purpose of the current study is to assess the effect of dietary Spirulina platensis extract as an antibiotic altern...
O-linked β--acetylglucosamine (O-GlcNAc) is a post-translational modification (i.e., O-GlcNAcylation) on serine/threonine residues of proteins, regulating a plethora of physiological and pathological events. As a dynamic process, O-GlcNAc functions i...
In early 2016, we had the opportunity to test a pair of sprawling posture robots, one designed to mimic a crocodile and another designed to mimic a monitor lizard, along the banks of the Nile River in Uganda, Africa. These robots were developed uniqu...
A flexible spine is critical to the motion capability of most animals and plays a pivotal role in their agility. Although state-of-the-art legged robots have already achieved very dynamic and agile movement solely relying on their legs, they still ex...
Reading out neuronal activity from three-dimensional (3D) functional imaging requires segmenting and tracking individual neurons. This is challenging in behaving animals if the brain moves and deforms. The traditional approach is to train a convoluti...
Three-dimensional (3D) cell culture is emerging for drug design and drug screening. Skin toxicity is one of the most important assays for determining the toxicity of a compound before being used in skin application. Much work has been done to find an...
Sandflies (Diptera; Psychodidae) are medical and veterinary vectors that transmit diverse parasitic, viral, and bacterial pathogens. Their identification has always been challenging, particularly at the specific and sub-specific levels, because it re...
Renal pathologies often manifest as alterations in kidney size, providing a valuable avenue for employing dynamic parametric MRI as a means to derive kidney size measurements for the diagnosis, treatment, and monitoring of renal disease. Furthermore,...
INTRODUCTION: Synthetic lethality (SL) provides an opportunity to leverage different genetic interactions when designing synergistic combination therapies. To further explore SL-based combination therapies for cancer treatment, it is important to ide...
