OVEREXPRESSION OF MIR-30B IN THE DEVELOPING MOUSE MAMMARY GLAND CAUSES A LACTATION DEFECT AND DELAYS INVOLUTION.

Overexpression of miR-30b in the developing mouse mammary gland causes a lactation defect and delays involution.

BACKGROUND: MicroRNA (miRNA) are negative regulators of gene expression, capable of exerting pronounced influences upon the translation and stability of mRNA.They are potential regulators of normal mammary gland development and of the maintenance of mammary epithelial progenitor cells.This study was undertaken to determine the role of miR-30b on th

Wide Range of Brachyceran Fly Taxa Attracted to Synthetic and Semi-Synthetic Generic Noctuid Lures and the Description of New Attractants for Sciomyzidae and Heleomyzidae Families

During field tests implemented in Transcarpathia (West Ukraine) in 2015, 6501 specimens belonging to 26 Brachyceran fly families were collected with traps baited with generic lures (originally developed for noctuid moths) based on fermenting liquid and floral compounds.Isoamyl alcohol-based baits generally attracted more flies than phenylacetaldehy

Chloride equilibrium potential in salamander cones

Abstract Background GABAergic inhibition and effects of intracellular chloride ions on calcium channel activity have been proposed to regulate neurotransmission from photoreceptors.To assess the impact of these and other chloride-dependent mechanisms on release from cones, the chloride equilibrium potential (ECl) was determined in red-sensitive, la
