Background Vast sample sizes are often essential in the quest to disentangle complex interplay of genetic, lifestyle, environmental and social factors that determine aetiology progression chronic diseases. The pooling information between studies is therefore central importance contemporary bioscience. However, there many technical, ethico-legal scientific challenges be overcome if an effective, valid, pooled analysis achieved. Perhaps most critically, any data analysed this way must...
Nontuberculous mycobacteria (NTM) are ubiquitous microorganisms naturally resistant to antibiotics and disinfectants that can colonize drinking water supply systems. Information regarding the spread of NTM in specifically South America Colombia is limited. We aimed identify characterize present tap samples from Cali, Colombia. Drinking faucet biofilm swabs were collected 18 places, including city's three main treatment plants (WTPs). Filter-trapped material eluates (0.45 μm) swab washes...
Bone morphogenetic protein (Bmp) signalling plays a central role in the decision of ectoderm to adopt either neural or non-neural fates. The effects this are seen at mid-gastrulation activation genes such as Gata factors and repression SoxB1 transcription regions. Using zebrafish embryos, we show that Bmp does not repress expression these same markers just 2-3 hours earlier. Since effector, Smad1, only begins during early gastrulation, tested Smad1 Smad5 (which is maternally expressed)...
