Abstract Background Telomeric small RNAs related to PIWI-interacting RNAs (piRNAs) have been described in various eukaryotes; however, their role in germline-specific telomere function remains poorly understood.Using a Drosophila model, we performed an in-depth study of the biogenesis of telomeric piRNAs and their function in telomere homeostasis i
Introduction: The majority of nasopharyngeal cysts are asymptomatic and rare.Nevertheless, these lesions are rarely discovered during regular endoscopies and imaging tests.An upper nasopharyngeal Thornwaldt cyst is a benign, mucosal congenital cyst.Even less frequently, they can cause unexplained sinonasal symptoms such as rhinorrhea, vision proble
Madecassoside (MAD), a pentacyclic triterpenoid saponin, and its source herb Centella asiatica are best known for their memory enhancing and neuroprotective properties.The effects of MAD- and similar secondary metabolite-encapsulated nanoparticles on brain are least explored.Henceforth, we have developed MAD encapsulated alginate chitosan nanoparti
Despite the heightened awareness of ocean acidification (OA) effects on marine organisms, few studies empirically juxtapose biological responses to CO2 A/C Adaptor manipulations across functionally distinct primary producers, particularly benthic algae.Algal responses to OA may vary because increasing CO2 has the potential to fertilize photosynthes
Numerous studies have suggested a substantial genetic contribution in the etiology of the primary form of restless legs syndrome (RLS) and periodic leg movements (PLM).We describe the symptoms, the sleep profiles and physiological parameters Coupe Glasses of two families in which several members present RLS/PLM.The proband of family 1 is a 70-year-
