Hiroshima and Nagasaki at 65 – A Reflection by Norimatsu Satoko

“…And having fewer, or even none, of those surviving people will in no way diminish the significance of our actions, our shared memories, and our knowledge, to be inherited by future generations, so that never again will nuclear weapons be used, in combat or in experiments.…”

An Emerging Role for IQGAP1 in Regulating Protein Traffic by Mahasin Osman

“…Membrane traffic mediates infections by intracellular pathogens and a range of degenerative human diseases arise from dysfunctions in intracellular traffic; thus, elucidating the mechanisms of cellular traffic will be important in order to understand the basis of a wide range of inherited and acquired human diseases. Recent evidence suggests that IQGAP1 plays its role in cell growth through regulating the conserved mTOR pathway. …”

Cell-marking techniques for cell lineage tracing by A. M. Yunusova, N. R. Battulin

“…To trace the cell’s fate, novel methods were invented that introduce special tags into cells, the tags that would be inherited during cell divisions. Every descendent of a marked cell bears the same tag and can easily be distinguished from unrelated cellular neighbors. …”

Timing of dietary effects on the epigenome and their potential protective effects against toxins by Lynnea A. Nicholls, Kendall A. Zeile, London D. Scotto, Rebecca J. Ryznar

“…Numerous studies in humans and animals suggest that diet has the potential to modify the epigenome and these modifications can be inherited transgenerationally, but few studies investigate how diet can protect against negative effects of toxins. …”

Foreigner in contemporary Japanese state discourse: Constructing differences between the nation and the Other by D. S. Alekseev

“…Previous research suggests that, in reality, Cool Japan is not so much in conflict with nihonjiron narratives, but rather inherits their rhetoric. However, little attention has been paid to how foreigners are represented within this program. …”

COMPARISON OF METHODS FOR OBTAINING GENETIC DIVERSITY FOR BREEDING WINTER-HARDY WHEAT IN SIBERIA by V. E. Kozlov

“…Gibberellin stress in two consecutive generations induced a long deep rest in some survivors, comparable to the duration of wintering, which ensured high survival of their offspring. These changes were inherited. The harder was the selection for the duration of deep rest in «gibberellic» lines, the higher proportion of them was constituted by highly frost-resistant forms that survived under conditions of poor snow cover in the steppe. …”

The role of transposable elements in the ecological morphogenesis under the influence of stress by R. N. Mustafin, E. K. Khusnutdinova

“…These genes contain nucleotide sequences that interact with non-coding RNAs processed from transposons transcripts, and therefore they are under the control of epigenetic regulatory networks involving transposons. Therefore, inherited features of the location and composition of transposons, along with a change in the phenotype, play an important role in the characteristics of responding to a variety of environmental stressors. …”

Targeted Regulation Of Cgrp Gene Expression by A. F. Russo, P. L. Durham

“…This observation supports the importance of a finely tuned balance of calcium in the trigeminal neuron, which is intriguing in light of genetic evidence for calcium channel mutations in a rare form of inherited migraine. These studies suggest that modulation of MAP kinase control of the cell-specific CGRP gene enhancer may be a useful therapeutic strategy for neurovascular disorders.…”
