The aim of this study was genotyping and identification of collection of 164 Bacillus spp. isolates, from samples of soil, manure, and straw gathered from across Serbia, using Pulse field gel electrophoresis (PFGE) combined with sequencing of tuf gene, one ...
Taxonomic, functional and phylogenetic diversities can respond differently to biotic and abiotic filters. However, biodiversity management tends to focus on a single index, generally taxonomic diversity, assuming a strong positive correlation among biodive ...
Background and aims - Recent methodological and theoretical advances in community ecology have allowed more robust exploration of complementary facets of biodiversity in plant communities. Focusing on semi-natural permanent grasslands of the French Jura Mo ...
We introduce a novel in vitro rainbow trout intestinal barrier model and demonstrate its suitability for investigating nanoparticle transport across the intestinal epithelium. Rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) intestinal cells (RTgutGC) were grown as mon ...

Background: In cell differentiation, a cell of a less specialized type becomes one of a more specialized type, even though all cells have the same genome. Transcription factors and epigenetic marks like histone modifications can play a significant role in ...
BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVES: The vitamin E derivative, alpha-tocopheryl acetate, is often included in formulations used in enteral nutrition. In this respect, we compared alpha-tocopherol and alpha-tocopheryl acetate absorption under 'maldigestion' conditions, s ...
Background: Large-scale sequencing of genomes has enabled the inference of phylogenies based on the evolution of genomic architecture, under such events as rearrangements, duplications, and losses. Many evolutionary models and associated algorithms have be ...
Macrophages are important for maintaining intestinal immune homeostasis. Here, we show that PPAR beta/delta (peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor beta/delta) directly regulates CD300a in macrophages that express the immunoreceptor tyrosine based-inhi ...
Background Impaired 5-HT3 receptor function is likely involved in the pathogenesis of functional gastrointestinal disorders (FGID) and 5-HT3 receptor antagonists are effective treatments for chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting (CINV) and irritable bow ...
