Telomere Shortening in the Oral Epithelium in Relation to Alcohol Intake, Alcohol Dehydrogenase (ADH‐1B) and Acetaldehyde Dehydrogenase (ALDH‐2) Genotypes and Clinicopathologic Features
Abstract Background Progressive telomere shortening with age or chronic inflammation may lead to genomic instability that characterizes the early stage of carcinogenesis. Certain risk factors, such as drinking alcoholic beverages, or smoking, predispose the oral mucosa to squamous cell carcinoma. The ADH1B and ALDH2 genotypes can influence the risk of cancer due to alcohol drinking. In the present study, we analyzed chromosomal instability due to telomere shortening in the oral mucosa in relation...

Expression of endogenous phospholipase D1, localized in mouse submandibular gland, is greater in females and is suppressed by testosterone
Phospholipase D1 (PLD1) is dominantly demonstrated in immature GCT cells characterized by electron‐lucent granules in the mouse submandibular gland. PLD1 is greater in females and is suppressed by testosterone. It is suggested that PLD1 is involved in the signaling for secretion of immature GCT cells and influences differentiation of these cells, probably through their own secretory substances. Abstract To clarify the signal transduction mechanism in the differentiation and secretion of salivary...

A reappraisal and revision of the numbering of the pharyngeal arches
The numbering of the pharyngeal arches in humans, and other amniotes, should simply be from anterior to posterior, 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5. Abstract The pharyngeal arches are a prominent and significant feature of vertebrate embryos. These are visible as a series of bulges on the lateral surface of the embryonic head. In humans, and other amniotes, there are five pharyngeal arches numbered 1, 2, 3, 4 and 6; note the missing ‘5’. This is the standard scheme for the numbering of these structures, and it...

Characteristics of the transverse 2D uniserial arrangement of rows of decussating enamel rods in the inner enamel layer of mouse mandibular incisors
Enamel rods in rodent incisors are arranged as stacked rows with alternating tilt angles across the transverse plane of the tooth. This study quantifies row patterns to determine if the layering of the rows and the alternating tilt angles are uniform or more irregular and complex in arrangement. The results indicated considerable diversity in row lengths, row tilts and 2D spatial row arrangements both within and between rows. Abstract The 2D arrangement of rows of enamel rods with alternating (decussating)...

A unique autopsy case of ascending aortic dissection caused by giant cell arteritis without drug therapy
Giant cell arteritis is a granulomatous inflammation of large and medium‐sized arteries, occurring predominantly in older women. In this case, a 76‐year‐old woman was hospitalized for examination because of a high C‐reactive protein (CRP) level, but nothing remarkable was found on thoracicoabdominal computed tomography (CT) or head magnetic resonanse imaging (MRI). On the 46th day from the first visit, she died suddenly due to cardiac tamponade. On pathological autopsy, we found the cause of death...

No evidence for negative impacts of acute sulfoxaflor exposure on bee olfactory conditioning or working memory
Systemic insecticides such as neonicotinoids and sulfoximines can be present in the nectar and pollen of treated crops, through which foraging bees can become acutely exposed. Research has shown that acute, field realistic dosages of neonicotinoids can negatively influence bee learning and memory, with potential consequences for bee behaviour. As legislative reassessment of neonicotinoid use occurs globally, there is an urgent need to understand the potential risk of other systemic insecticides....

Pollen report: quantitative review of pollen crude protein concentrations offered by bee pollinated flowers in agricultural and non-agricultural landscapes
To ease nutritional stress on managed as well as native bee populations in agricultural habitats, agro-environmental protection schemes aim to provide alternative nutritional resources for bee populations during times of need. However, such efforts have so far focused on quantity (supply of flowering plants) and timing (flower-scarce periods) while ignoring the quality of the two main bee relevant flower-derived resources (pollen and nectar). As a first step to address this issue we have compiled...

An enigmatic decoupling between heat stress and coral bleaching on the Great Barrier Reef
Ocean warming threatens the functioning of coral reef ecosystems by inducing mass coral bleaching and mortality events. The link between temperature and coral bleaching is now well-established based on observations that mass bleaching events usually occur when seawater temperatures are anomalously high. However, times of high heat stress but without coral bleaching are equally important because they can inform an understanding of factors that regulate temperature-induced bleaching. Here, we investigate...
