Luteinizing hormone (LH) is secreted in low-amplitude pulses in sexually intact dogs to stimulate synthesis of estrogen and testosterone in females and males, respectively. LH is mainly considered a reproductive hormone, but LH receptors (LHR) have been identified in non-reproductive tissues, including in canine lymphoma and isolated canine T-cell lymphoma...
Osteosarcoma (OSA) is a primary malignant bone tumor sarcoma that occurs in dogs as well as people and has aggressive biologic behavior with devastating consequences. Because of the similarities in morphology and prognosis, OSA in dogs represents an effective model for the equivalent disease in humans. Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs)...
Menstrual health and hygiene insecurity is a global health issue people across the world face, particularly in developing countries. According to the World Bank, an estimated 500 million lack access to adequate menstrual products, and “to effectively manage their menstruation, women and girls require access to water, sanitation, and hygiene...
Surface-associated thrombosis is a critical concern in medical device development. Current extracorporeal circulation units require systemic anticoagulation to avoid thrombosis, which can cause adverse effects such as thrombocytopenia, hypertriglyceridemia, and hyperkalemia. To address this issue, we combine the technology of polydopamine (PDA) functionalization with slippery liquid infused porous surfaces (SLIPS)....
Reexamination of fossilized plant material from the westernmost Pennsylvanian-age wetland flora in North America reveals that material of Pecopteris oregonensis Arnold represents a filicalean fern frond with annulate sporangia and anatomically preserved vascular tissues of the rachis. The frond, which is redescribed as Senftenbergia oregonensis (Arnold) Hillier et Rothwell comb....
Translating research advances to natural systems using experimental laboratory studies is often difficult because of the variability between the natural environment and experimental conditions. Because environmental conditions have a large effect on an organism's physiology, responses to stressors like nutrient limitation, temperature, oxygen deprivation, predation, and parasite/pathogen infection are likely...
