The mesoglea buffers the physico-chemical microenvironment of photosymbionts in the upside-down jellyfish Cassiopea sp

Anders Meibom, Niclas Heidelberg Lyndby, Michael Kühl

IntroductionThe jellyfish Cassiopea has a conspicuous lifestyle, positioning itself upside-down on sediments in shallow waters thereby exposing its photosynthetic endosymbionts (Symbiodiniaceae) to light. Several studies have shown how the photosymbionts b ...

Multiple scanning electrochemical microscopy mapping of tyrosinase in micro-contact printed fruit samples on polyvinylidene fluoride membrane

Hubert Girault, Andreas Stephan Lesch, Liang Qiao, Fernando Cortes Salazar, Tzu-En Lin, Alexandra Bondarenko

Herein, we introduce three orthogonal and compatible methods for detecting tyrosinase, a key factor in fruit browning and skin disorders, with high spatial resolution by means of scanning electrochemical microscopy (SECM). All methods are performed subsequ ...

Photodynamic therapy for polypoidal choroidal vasculopathy

Hubert van den Bergh, Patrycja Nowak-Sliwinska

The first effective therapy for exudative macular degeneration (AMD) was Photodynamic Therapy (PDT). Diagnosis of the disease was to a large extent by fluorescein angiography (FA). Distinguishing between the leaky choroidal neovessels (CNV) associated with ...

Coat color dilution in mice because of inactivation of the melanoma antigen MART-1

Friedrich Beermann, Iraz Toprak Aydin

Melanoma antigen recognized by T cells 1 (MART-1) is a melanoma-specific antigen, which has been thoroughly studied in the context of immunotherapy against malignant melanoma and which is found only in the pigment cell lineage. However, its exact function ...

Evidence Of Adaptation From Ancestral Variation In Young Populations Of Beach Mice

Jeffrey David Jensen

To understand how organisms adapt to novel habitats, which involves both demographic and selective events, we require knowledge of the evolutionary history of populations and also selected alleles. There are still few cases in which the precise mutations ( ...

Drosophila Serpin-28D regulates hemolymph phenoloxidase activity and adult pigmentation

Bruno Lemaitre

In insects the enzyme phenoloxidase (PO) catalyzes melanin deposition at the wound site and around parasitoid eggs. Its proenzyme prophenoloxidase (proPO) is proteolytically cleaved to active phenoloxidase by a cascade consisting of serine proteases and in ...
