The capacity to learn and reproduce vocal sounds has evolved in phylogenetically distant tetrapod lineages. Vocal learners in all these lineages express similar neural circuitry and genetic factors when perceiving, processing, and reproducing vocalization, suggesting that brain pathways for vocal learning evolved within strong constraints from a common ancestor, potentially fish. We hypothesize th

Despite a lot of research in the field, only very little experience exists with Teaching by Demonstration (TbD) in actual industrial use cases. In the factory of the future, it is necessary to rapidly reprogram flexible mobile manipulators to perform new tasks, when the need arises, for which a working system capable of TbD would be ideal. Contrary to current TbD approaches, that generally aim to

Quantum Cascade Lasers (QCLs) have since their invention in 1994 become a crucial source for mid-infrared and THz radiation. Mid-infrared QCLs have achieved room temperature operation while THz QCLs have not. As such, simulations are an important tool in order to achieve a THz QCL operational at room temperature. This work uses a simulation package based on a nonequilibrium Green’s function model

Hej alla Saco-S-medlemmar vid GU Då var vi igång med ett nytt läsår, utvilade och taggade att ta tag i höstens alla spännande utmaningar. Till en början vill vi informera om kollektivavtal som de flesta av oss idag ser som en självklarhet, men så är det tyvärr inte. Kollektivavtalen kan ses som din försäkring genom hela din karriär. För dig som anställd är det av stor betydelse att arbetsplatsen h

Incomplete reporting of microscopy methods undermines transparency, reproducibility, and data reuse. Despite recent initiatives, comprehensive, broadly endorsed, and accessible reporting guidelines are still lacking. Here, we present a bare minimal microscopy reporting requirements checklist that integrates human- and machine-readable input to provide clear, actionable guidance for researchers, re

Objectives: To investigate whether pancreatic steatosis is associated with the presence of pancreatic cysts among individuals with diabetes. Material and Methods: 158 individuals [mean age 66 ± 10 years, 81 (51%) female] with diabetes [135 (85%) had type 2 diabetes] participated in the study involving Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI), blood tests and anthropometric measurements. Pancreatic steatos

Aberrant epigenetic changes in DNA methylation and histone acetylation are hallmarks of most cancers, whereas histone methylation was previously considered to be irreversible and less versatile. Recently, several histone demethylases were identified catalyzing the removal of methyl groups from histone H3 lysine residues and thereby influencing gene expression. Neuroblastomas continue to remain a c

Following the line of the former Iron Curtain, the European Green Belt links protected areas across 24 countries, and restores key wildlife populations, wetlands and rural livelihoods. Its success proves that rewilding-grounded nature-based solutions can transform war-scarred frontiers into biodiversity-rich, climate-resilient lifelines, and challenges policymakers to replicate such mega-corridors

It is well documented that prolonged inflammatory conditions, particularly those relating to the colon, have been shown to induce cancer. We have previously demonstrated that the pro-inflammatory mediator leukotriene D-4 (LTD4) induces survival and proliferation in intestinal cells and that its receptor, CysLT(1), is upregulated in human colon cancer tissue. Here we demonstrate, for the first time

Transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-beta) is involved in vascular formation through activin receptor-like kinase (ALK)1 and ALK5. ALK5, which is expressed ubiquitously, phosphorylates Smad2 and Smad3, whereas endothelial cell (EC)-specific ALK1 activates Smad1 and Smad5. Because ALK5 kinase activity is required for ALK1 to transduce TGF-beta signaling via Smad1/5 in ECs, ALK5 knockout (KO) mice w

We have previously shown that protein kinase Cepsilon (PKCepsilon) induces neurite outgrowth via its regulatory domain and independently of its kinase activity. This study aimed at identifying mechanisms regulating PKCepsilon-mediated neurite induction. We show an increased association of PKCepsilon to the cytoskeleton during neuronal differentiation. Furthermore, neurite induction by overexpressi

The aggregating proteoglycans (aggrecan, versican, neurocan, and brevican) are important components of many extracellular matrices. Their N-terminal globular domain binds to hyaluronan, but the function of their C-terminal region containing a C-type lectin domain is less clear. We now report that a 90-kDa protein copurifies with recombinant lectin domains from aggrecan and versican, but not from t
