Abstract: We redescribe the morphology of Yohoia tenuis (Chelicerata sensu lato ) from Cambrian Burgess Shale Lagerstätte. The most anterior, prominent, so‐called great appendage changes throughout ontogeny. While its principal remains unaltered, length ratios certain parts change significantly. Furthermore, it possesses a special jack‐knifing mechanism, i.e. an elbow joint: articulation between distal one two peduncle elements and proximal four spine‐bearing claw elements. This might have...

The Cambrian Stage 3 Chengjiang biota in South China is one of the most influential Konservat-Lagerstätten worldwide thanks to fossilization diverse non-biomineralizing organisms through pyritization. Despite their contributions understanding evolution early animals, several species remain poorly known owing scarcity and/or incomplete preservation. Here, we use micro-computed tomography reveal detail ventral appendage organization enigmatic non-trilobite artiopod Pygmaclypeatus daziensis...

The promyelocytic leukemia protein (PML) is essential in the assembly of dynamic subnuclear structures called PML nuclear bodies (PML-NBs), which are involved regulating diverse cellular functions. However, possibility being cardiac disease has not been examined. In mice undergoing transverse aortic constriction (TAC) and arsenic trioxide (ATO) injection, transforming growth factor β1 (TGF-β1) was upregulated along with alteration SUMOylation. cultured neonatal mouse fibroblasts (NMCFs),...

A three-dimensionally preserved 2-mm-long larva of the arthropod Leanchoilia illecebrosa from 520-million-year-old early Cambrian Chengjiang biota China represents first evidence, to our knowledge, such an developmental stage in a short-great-appendage (SGA) arthropod. The possesses pair three-fingered great appendages, hypostome, and four pairs well-developed biramous appendages. More posteriorly, series rudimentary limb Anlagen revealed by X-ray microcomputed tomography shows gradient...

Artiopodan euarthropods represent common and abundant faunal components in sites with exceptional preservation during the Cambrian. The Chengjiang biota South China contains numerous taxa that are exclusively known from this deposit, thus offer a unique perspective on euarthropod diversity early One such endemic taxon is non-trilobite artiopodan Sinoburius lunaris, which has been for approximately three decades, but few details of its anatomy well understood due to rarity within Chengjiang,...

Arsenic trioxide (ATO) is an effective therapeutic agent against acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL); however, its anti-tumor effect on solid tumors such as colorectal cancer (CRC) still in debate. Ascorbic acid (AA) also produces a selective cytotoxic activity tumor cells. Here, we exploit the potential benefit of ATO/AA combination generating cytotoxicity to CRC cells, which may lay ground work for combinational chemotherapy CRCs. According results, found that ATO and AA effectively...

Evidence points to involvement this neuromodulatory in pathophysiology ASD. We investigated whether there disruption eCB ASD pharmacological modulation might offer therapeutic potential. examined three major components system—endogenous cannabinoids, their receptors associated enzymes—in children as...

Abstract Phylogenetic analysis demonstrates that Kuamaia lata , a helmetiid euarthropod from the lower Cambrian (Series 2, Stage 3) Chengjiang Konservat-Lagerstätte, nests robustly within Artiopoda, clade including trilobitomorphs. Microtomography of new specimens K . reveals details morphology, notably six-segmented head and raptorial frontal appendages, latter contrasting with filiform antennae considered to be diagnostic character Artiopoda. analyses demonstrate appendage is...

More than half a billion years ago, high diversity of organisms appeared in the fossil record. All major clades we know today already existed, and arthropods dominated marine faunas. Many were equipped with pair elaborated compound eyes on top movable eye stalks. Some them also possessed 3-4 small single-aperture eyes, so-called median eyes. Just trilobites sessile dorsal One eyes/lateral is considered plesiomorphic common trait for euarthropods. Here, describe an arthropod that two...

HYD-PEP06, an endostatin-modified polypeptide, has been shown to produce effective anti-colorectal carcinoma effects through inhibiting epithelial–mesenchymal transition (EMT). However, whether HYD-PEP06 similar suppressive effect on hepatocellular (HCC) remained unknown. In this study, inhibited metastasis and EMT but not proliferation in vitro. Cignal finder pathway reporter array Western blot analysis revealed that suppressed HCCLM3 cell by the PI3K/AKT pathway. Moreover, exerted...

Abstract The last common ancestor of all living arthropods had biramous postantennal appendages, with an endopodite and exopodite branching off the limb base. Morphological evidence for homology these rami between crustaceans chelicerates has, however, been challenged by data from clonal composition knockout leg patterning genes. Cambrian arthropod fossils have cited as providing support competing hypotheses about biramy but shed little light on additional lateral outgrowths, known exites....
