Abstract Background The aim of this study was to gain an understanding of the transcriptomic changes that occur in a wild species when infected with Toxoplasma gondii.The masked palm civet, an artifically domesticated animal, was used as the model of a wild species.Transcriptome analysis was used to study alterations in gene expression in the domes
It has been speculated that some deep-sea fishes can display large vertical migrations and likely doing so to explore the full suite of benthopelagic food resources, especially the pelagic organisms of the deep scattering layer (DSL).This would help explain the success of fishes residing at seamounts and the increased biodiversity found in these fe
Increased formation of neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) is associated with gut leakage in type 1 diabetes (T1D).To explore the mechanism of how enteropathy exacerbated by NETs triggers pancreatic autoimmunity in T1D, we carried out a correlation analysis for NET formation with gut barrier functions and autoimmunity in nonobese diabetic (NOD) m
BackgroundChanges to the healthcare system due to COVID-19 have altered care delivery during birth and the postpartum period, a transitional time that requires intensive healthcare support and that is complicated by well-established health disparities.Our objective was to identify additional challenges to healthcare interactions that emerged for lo
