Managing a complex population structure: exploring the importance of information from fisheries-independent sources
(Oxford University Press (OUP), 2014-06-25)Natural resource managers aim to manage fish stocks at sustainable levels. Often, management of these stocks is based on the results of analytical stock assessments. Accurate catch data, which can be attributed to a specific ... -
Manipulation of intestinal epithelial cell function by the cell contact-dependent type iii secretion systems of vibrio parahaemolyticus
(Frontiers Media SA, 2014-01-01)Vibrio parahaemolyticus elicits gastroenteritis by deploying Type III Secretion Systems (TTSS) to deliver effector proteins into epithelial cells of the human intestinal tract. The bacteria must adhere to the human cells ... -
Manufacturing differences affect human bone marrow stromal cell characteristics and function: comparison of production methods and products from multiple centers
(Springer Nature, 2017-04-27)Human bone marrow stromal cells (BMSCs, also known as bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells) are manufactured using many different methods, but little is known about the spectrum of manufacturing methods used and their ... -
Mapping flow distortion on oceanographic platforms using computational fluid dynamics
(Copernicus GmbH, 2013-10-17)Wind speed measurements over the ocean on ships or buoys are affected by flow distortion from the platform and by the anemometer itself. This can lead to errors in direct measurements and the derived parametrisations. Here ... -
Mapping radio emitting-region on low-mass stars and brown dwarfs
(EDP Sciences, 2011-01-01)Strong magnetic activity in ultracool dwarfs (UCDs, spectral classes later than M7) have emerged from a number of radio observations, including the periodic beams. The highly (up to 100%) circularly polarized nature of the ... -
Marcks and marcks-like proteins in development and regeneration
(Springer Nature, 2018-05-22)Background: The Myristoylated Alanine-Rich C-kinase Substrate (MARCKS) and MARCKS-like protein 1 (MARCKSL1) have a wide range of functions, ranging from roles in embryonic development to adult brain plasticity and the ... -
Marine aerosol chemistry gradients: elucidating primary and secondary processes and fluxes
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2008-04-01)Production mechanisms of aerosol chemical species, in terms of primary and secondary processes, were studied using vertical concentration gradient measurements at the coastal research station in Mace Head, Ireland. Total ... -
Marine guanidine alkaloids crambescidins inhibit tumor growth and activate intrinsic apoptotic signaling inducing tumor regression in a colorectal carcinoma zebrafish xenograft model
(Impact Journals, LLC, 2016-11-04)The marine environment constitutes an extraordinary resource for the discovery of new therapeutic agents. In the present manuscript we studied the effect of 3 different sponge derived guanidine alkaloids, crambescidine ... -
Marine submicron aerosol gradients, sources and sinks
(Copernicus GmbH, 2016-10-04)Aerosol principal sources and sinks over eastern North Atlantic waters were studied through the deployment of an aerosol chemistry gradient sampling system. The chemical gradients of primary and secondary aerosol components ... -
Maristem—stem cells of marine/aquatic invertebrates: from basic research to innovative applications
(MDPI AG, 2018-02-15)The "stem cells" discipline represents one of the most dynamic areas in biomedicine. While adult marine/aquatic invertebrate stem cell (MISC) biology is of prime research and medical interest, studies on ... -
Marker-trait association analysis of functional gene markers for provitamin a levels across diverse tropical yellow maize inbred lines
(Springer Nature, 2013-01-01)Background: Biofortification of staple crops is a cost effective and sustainable approach that can help combat vitamin A and other micronutrient deficiencies in developing countries. PCR -based DNA markers distinguishing ... -

Matching intra-procedural information with coping style reduces psychophysiological arousal in women undergoing colposcopy
(Springer Nature, 2012-06-24)This study assessed the combined effects of coping style and intra-procedural information on indices of distress (physiological measures, observed distress, self-report measures of anxiety and affect) among a group of ... -
Material practices for meaningful engagement: an analysis of participatory learning and action research techniques for data generation and analysis in a health research partnership
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2017-08-25)BackgroundThe material practices which researchers use in research partnerships may enable or constrain the nature of engagement with stakeholder groups. Participatory learning and action (PLA) research approaches show ... -

Mcph1/brit1 limits ionizing radiation-induced centrosome amplification
(Springer Nature, 2010-07-26)Microcephalin (MCPH1/BRIT1) is a potential tumour suppressor that localizes to the centrosome, forms ionizing radiation-induced nuclear foci (IRIF) and is involved in the DNA damage checkpoints that ensure genome stability. ... -
Measured indoor aerosol concentration arising from commonly-used food and medicinal powders: a pilot study
(Taiwan Association for Aerosol Research, 2017-01-01)Inhalation exposures in the ambient environment may trigger allergic or other adverse responses in susceptible individuals, and this study aims to elucidate the contribution, if any, of airborne particles resulting from ...
