In translational obesity research, objective assessment of adipocyte sizes and numbers is essential to characterize histomorphological alterations linked to obesity, and to evaluate the efficacies of experimental medicinal or dietetic interventions.Design-based quantitative stereological techniques based on the analysis of 2D-histological sections
South Africa was an early leader in multidisciplinary studies of marine resources, particularly with the Benguela Ecology Programme in the 1980s and 1990s and catch records are available for some species dating back more than a century.Resources data have focused on trends in catches, Cabasa fishing effort and changes in distribution and abundance
Thyreophora is a taxon of dinosaurs composed of Stegosauria and Ankylosauria, whose members have been known to utilise their tails as powerful defensive weapons.Remains of these dinosaurs are scarce; the Portuguese taxon, Miragaia longicollum, known from three individuals, provides precious pieces of information on the anatomy of these rare animals
To deal with the issue of human face recognition on small original dataset, a new approach combining convolutional neural network (CNN) with augmented dataset is developed in this paper.The original small dataset is augmented COLLAGEN MUSCLE TONE to be a large dataset via several transformations of the face images.Based on the augmented face image
Tomato yellow leaf curl virus (TYLCV) and its related begomoviruses cause fast-spreading diseases in tomato worldwide.How this virus induces diseases remains largely unclear.Here we report a noncoding RNA-mediated model to elucidate the molecular mechanisms of TYLCV-tomato interaction and disease development.The circular ssDNA genome of TYLCV conta
