Host Genotype and Gut Microbiome Modulate Insulin Secretion and Diet-Induced Metabolic Phenotypes
Summary Genetic variation drives phenotypic diversity and influences the predisposition to metabolic disease. Here, we characterize the metabolic phenotypes of eight genetically distinct inbred mouse strains in response to a high-fat/high-sucrose...

Reciprocal Regulation between 53BP1 and the Anaphase-Promoting Complex/Cyclosome Is Required for Genomic Stability during Mitotic Stress
Summary The anaphase-promoting complex/cyclosome (APC/C) is an E3 ubiquitin ligase that targets substrates for degradation to promote mitotic progression. Here, we show that the DNA damage response protein 53BP1 contains conserved KEN boxes that are ...

Face Pareidolia in the Rhesus Monkey
Summary Face perception in humans and nonhuman primates is rapid and accurate [1–4]. In the human brain, a network of visual-processing regions is specialized for faces [5–7]. Although face processing is a priority of the primate visual system, face ...

Visualization of morphological categories of colonies for monitoring of effect on induced pluripotent stem cell culture status
Abstract From the recent advances, there are growing expectations toward the mass production of induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) for varieties of applications. For such type of industrial cell manufacturing, the technology which can stabilize...

An optimized method for cryogenic storage of Xenopus sperm to maximise the effectiveness of research using genetically altered frogs
Abstract Cryogenic storage of sperm from genetically altered Xenopus improves cost effectiveness and animal welfare associated with their use in research; currently it is routine for X. tropicalis but not reliable for X. laevis. Here we compare...

Calmodulin modulates the Ca 2+ -dependent inactivation and expression level of bovine Ca V 2.2 expressed in HEK293T cells
Abstract Ca2+ influx through voltage-gated Ca2+ channels (CaVs) at the plasma membrane is the major pathway responsible for the elevation of the intracellular Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]i), which activates various physiological activities. Calmodulin ...
