Evolutionary biology and genetic techniques for insect control.

Evolutionary applications

Leftwich PT, Bolton M, Chapman T.
PMID: 27087849
Evol Appl. 2015 Jul 15;9(1):212-30. doi: 10.1111/eva.12280. eCollection 2016 Jan.

The requirement to develop new techniques for insect control that minimize negative environmental impacts has never been more pressing. Here we discuss population suppression and population replacement technologies. These include sterile insect technique, genetic elimination methods such as the...

Soluble Platinum Nanoparticles Ligated by Long-Chain N-Heterocyclic Carbenes as Catalysts.

Chemistry (Weinheim an der Bergstrasse, Germany)

Martínez-Prieto LM, Rakers L, López-Vinasco AM, Cano I, Coppel Y, Philippot K, Glorius F, Chaudret B, van Leeuwen PWNM.
PMID: 28612457
Chemistry. 2017 Sep 18;23(52):12779-12786. doi: 10.1002/chem.201702288. Epub 2017 Jul 26.

Soluble platinum nanoparticles (Pt NPs) ligated by two different long-chain N-heterocyclic carbenes (LC-IPr and LC-IMe) were synthesized and fully characterized by TEM, high-resolution TEM, wide-angle X-ray scattering (WAXS), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), and solution NMR. The surface chemistry of...

Wavelet-based LASSO in functional linear regression.

Journal of computational and graphical statistics : a joint publication of American Statistical Association, Institute of Mathematical Statistics, Interface Foundation of North America

Zhao Y, Ogden RT, Reiss PT.
PMID: 23794794
J Comput Graph Stat. 2012 Jul 01;21(3):600-617. doi: 10.1080/10618600.2012.679241.

In linear regression with functional predictors and scalar responses, it may be advantageous, particularly if the function is thought to contain features at many scales, to restrict the coefficient function to the span of a wavelet basis, thereby converting...

Protective Potential of Antioxidant Enzymes as Vaccines for Schistosomiasis in a Non-Human Primate Model.

Frontiers in immunology

Carvalho-Queiroz C, Nyakundi R, Ogongo P, Rikoi H, Egilmez NK, Farah IO, Kariuki TM, LoVerde PT.
PMID: 26082781
Front Immunol. 2015 Jun 02;6:273. doi: 10.3389/fimmu.2015.00273. eCollection 2015.

Schistosomiasis remains a major cause of morbidity in the world. The challenge today is not so much in the clinical management of individual patients, but rather in population-based control of transmission in endemic areas. Despite recent large-scale efforts, such...

Photosynthetic characteristics of two Cylindrospermopsis raciborskii strains differing in their toxicity.

Journal of phycology

Pierangelini M, Stojkovic S, Orr PT, Beardall J.
PMID: 26988186
J Phycol. 2014 Apr;50(2):292-302. doi: 10.1111/jpy.12157. Epub 2014 Jan 17.

We studied the growth and photosynthetic characteristics of a toxic (CS506) and a nontoxic strain (CS509) of the bloom-forming cyanobacterium Cylindrospermopsis raciborskii grown under identical experimental conditions. When exposed to light-saturating growth conditions (100 μmol photons · m(-2)  ·...

BACKGROUND: This article reports on a scabies outbreak among healthcare workers (HCW) in an acute care hospital. The outbreak was associated with a patient suffering from a chronic skin disease that was later diagnosed as crusted scabies.OBJECTIVE: The objective...

Adiponectin potentiates the acute effects of leptin in arcuate Pomc neurons.

Molecular metabolism

Mol Metab. 2016 Aug 18;5(10):882-891. doi: 10.1016/j.molmet.2016.08.007. eCollection 2016 Oct.

OBJECTIVE: Adiponectin receptors (AdipoRs) are located on neurons of the hypothalamus involved in metabolic regulation - including arcuate proopiomelanocortin (Pomc) and Neuropeptide Y/Agouti-related peptide (NPY/AgRP) neurons. AdipoRs play a critical role in regulating glucose and fatty acid metabolism by...

General Approaches to Structurally Diverse Isocyanoditerpenes.

The Journal of organic chemistry
