Activation of the periaqueductal gray controls respiratory output through a distributed brain network by Mitchell Prostebby, Jashan Saini, Vivian Biancardi, Vivian Biancardi, Vivian Biancardi, Clayton T. Dickson, Clayton T. Dickson, Clayton T. Dickson, Clayton T. Dickson, Silvia Pagliardini, Silvia Pagliardini, Silvia Pagliardini

“…In contrast, stimulating PAG terminals in either preBötC or pFL with long or shorter timescale stimuli could not completely replicate the effects of direct PAG stimulation and also did not produce any respiratory reset.ConclusionsOur results show that the effects of PAG activity on respiration are not mediated solely by PAG inputs to either the preBötC or pFL and more likely involve integration across a larger network of brainstem areas.…”

Effect of tree size attributes on fruit production and animal-mediated seed dispersal web in Melia azedarach L. (Chinaberry) in north-west Himalaya, India by Sukumaran Arun, Sasidharan Sarath, Khanduri Vinod Prasad, Suraj, Rawat Shweta, Chand Vaisakhy Prem

“…Insights into the relationships between tree species and their potential seed dispersers in a specific region are vital for determining spatial distribution and population dynamics that rely solely on natural regeneration. Several factors influence fruit production in trees, and the fluctuations in fruit output directly affects the population and diversity of frugivores in that area. …”

Hydrophobic deep eutectic solvents as novel, sustainable aids for intracellular protein release from Saccharomyces cerevisiae by Tjalling Gijsbert Tjalsma, Yannick Patrice Didion, Ziran Su, Magdalena Malankowska, Pablo Torres-Montero, José Luis Martínez, Manuel Pinelo

“…Despite the similar structures of the hydrogen bond acceptor (HBA) and hydrogen bond donor (HBD), DESs with L-menthol and lidocaine as HBA and a fatty acid as HBD exhibited superior performance compared to DESs consisting solely of L-menthol and lidocaine or those derived from fatty acids only. …”

Evaluation of targeting accuracy of cone beam CT guided histotripsy in an in vivo porcine model by Martin G. Wagner, Grace M. Minesinger, Katrina L. Falk, Ayca Z. Kutlu, Meridith A. Kisting, Michael A. Speidel, Timothy J. Ziemlewicz, J. Louis Hinshaw, John F. Swietlik, Fred T. Lee, Paul F. Laeseke

“…Purpose The application of histotripsy, an emerging noninvasive, non-ionizing, and non-thermal tumor treatment, is currently limited by the inherent limitations of diagnostic ultrasound as the sole targeting modality. This study evaluates the feasibility and accuracy of cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) guidance for histotripsy treatments in an in vivo porcine model.Materials and methods Histotripsy treatments were performed in the liver of seven healthy swine under the guidance of a C-arm CBCT system that was calibrated to the robotic arm of the histotripsy system. …”

Evaluation of various RNA-seq approaches for identification of gene outrons in the flatworm Opisthorchis felineus by N. I. Ershov, D. E. Maslov, N. P. Bondar

“…SLTS is involved in the RNA processing of more than half of O. felineus genes, making it hard to determine the structure of outrons and bona fide transcription start sites of the corresponding genes and operons, being based solely on mRNA-seq data. In the current study, we tested various experimental approaches for identifying the sequences of outrons in O. felineus using massive parallel sequencing. …”

Microbiological hazards associated with the use of water in the post‐harvest handling and processing operations of fresh and frozen fruits, vegetables and herbs (ffFVH). Part 3 (Fr... by EFSA BIOHAZ Panel (EFSA Panel on Biological Hazards), Ana Allende, Avelino Alvarez‐Ordóñez, Valeria Bortolaia, Sara Bover‐Cid, Alessandra De Cesare, Wietske Dohmen, Laurent Guillier, Lieve Herman, Liesbeth Jacxsens, Lapo Mughini‐Gras, Maarten Nauta, Jakob Ottoson, Luisa Peixe, Fernando Perez‐Rodriguez, Panagiotis Skandamis, Elisabetta Suffredini, Jen Banach, Bin Zhou, Maria Teresa daSilva Felício, Laura Martino, Winy Messens, Angela Botteon

“…A predictive model was used to simulate water management outcomes, highlighting the need for water disinfection treatments to maintain the microbiological quality of the process water and the added value of water replenishment. Relying solely on water replenishment (at realistic feasible rates) does not avoid microbial accumulation in the water. …”
