The olfactory bulb contains the first synaptic relay in the olfactory pathway, the sensory system in which odorants
are detected enabling these chemical stimuli to be transformed into electrical signals and, ultimately, the perception
of odor. Acid-sensing ion channels (ASICs), a family of proton-gated cation channels, are widely expressed in...

(1) Background: The red seaweed Palmaria mollis (PM), which has a bacon-like taste, is increasingly being included in Western diets. In this study, we evaluate anti-obesity effects of PM using diet-induced obese (DIO) zebrafish and mice models. (2) Methods: We fed PM-containing feed to DIO-zebrafish and mice, and evaluated the...
Back pain is the leading cause of disability worldwide, entailing a significant socioeconomic impact. A primary source of back pain can be attributed to intervertebral disc (IVD) degeneration allowing nerve ingrowth, facet joint arthritis, disc bulging, and osteophyte formations that press on nearby nerve roots or the spinal cord. While...
Wood and wood-based composites are being used in either
new or more demanding applications. A means is needed to
successfully analyze new materials and to predict their long-term
performance. Two techniques, dynamic mechanical
analysis (DMA) and time-temperature superposition (TTS) offer
a means to accomplish this objective. The outcome of this...
Environmental DNA (eDNA) is an emerging biological monitoring tool that can aid in assessing the effects of forestry and forest manufacturing activities on biota. Monitoring taxa across broad spatial and temporal scales is necessary to ensure forest management and forest manufacturing activities meet their environmental goals of maintaining biodiversity. Our...
