New insights into the stipitate hydnoid fungi Sarcodon, Hydnellum, and the formerly informally defined Neosarcodon, with emphasis on the edible species marketed in Southwest China by Di Wang, Hui Feng, Jie Zhou, Tian-Hai Liu, Zhi-Yuan Zhang, Ying-Yin Xu, Jie Tang, Wei-Hong Peng, Xiao-Lan He

“…In the present study, specimens collected in the field and purchased from the markets in Southwest China were analyzed based on morphological characters and DNA sequences. Phylogeny of the traditional Sarcodon s. lat. and Hydnellum s. lat. was reconstructed from the combined internal transcribed spacer (ITS), nuclear large ribosomal subunit (nLSU) and RNA polymerase II second largest subunit (RPB2) dataset based on expanded samples to reevaluate the taxonomic placements of the two genera. …”

Differentially localizing isoforms of the migraine component calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP), in the mouse trigeminal ganglion: βCGRP is translated but, unlike αCGRP, not so... by Sofia Lyng Wæver, Kristian Agmund Haanes

“…Methods We applied immunohistochemistry (IHC) on 15 TGs from three different genotypes of mice; wild type (WT) αCGRP heterozygote (Het) and αCGRP KOs, with a primary antibody targeting the mature neuropeptide sequence of both αCGRP and βCGRP. Subsequently, the localization patterns of the two isoforms were analyzed. …”
