BACTERIA ASSOCIATED WITH COPESTYLUM (DIPTERA, SYRPHIDAE) LARVAE AND THEIR CACTUS HOST ISOLATOCEREUS DUMORTIERI.

Bacteria associated with Copestylum (Diptera, Syrphidae) larvae and their cactus host Isolatocereus dumortieri.

We describe the gut bacterial diversity inhabiting two saprophagous syrphids and their radio birdman tshirt breeding substrate (decayed tissues of the columnar cactus Isolatocereus dumortieri).We analyzed the gut microbiota of Copestylum latum (scooping larvae that feed on decayed cactus tissues) and Copestylum limbipenne (whose larvae can also fee

Blood-Brain Barrier Cellular Responses Toward Organophosphates: Natural Compensatory Processes and Exogenous Interventions to Rescue Barrier Properties

Organophosphorus compounds (OPs) are highly toxic chemicals widely used as pesticides (e.g., paraoxon (PX)- the active metabolite of the insecticide parathion) and as chemical warfare nerve agents.Blood-brain barrier (BBB) leakage has been shown in rodents exposed to PX, which is an organophosphate oxon.In this study, we investigated the cellular m

Inhibition of K63 ubiquitination by G-Protein pathway suppressor 2 (GPS2) regulates mitochondria-associated translation

G-Protein Pathway Suppressor 2 (GPS2) is an inhibitor of non-proteolytic K63 ubiquitination mediated by the E2 ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme Ubc13.Previous studies have associated GPS2-mediated restriction of ubiquitination with the regulation of insulin signaling, inflammatory responses and mitochondria-nuclear communication across different tissue

An uncertain sustainable supply chain network design for regulating greenhouse gas emission and supply chain cost

The increasing global concern for sustainability in supply chain management is driven by stricter government regulations addressing environmental pollution and social injustice.This has led to a growing emphasis on integrating sustainability into supply chain practices.However, there is limited research on incorporating read more all three dimensio
