Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a global health challenge, and monitoring different demographic populations can improve our understanding of its spread and prevalence in urban settlements. This study applies building-level ...
This work sought to test the positive effect of red LED light on frozen bovine sperm resistance to thawing in suboptimal conditions. Moreover, a preliminary study explores whether this improvement could have any repercussions ...
Black flounder (Paralichthys orbignyanus, Pleuronectiformes) is a commercially significant marine fish with promising aquaculture potential in Argentina. Despite extensive studies on Black flounder aquaculture, its limited ...
Research Question: Are healthy and unhealthy diets associated with sperm DNA fragmentation and chromatin deprotamination in healthy men of reproductive age? Design: A cross-sectional analysis conducted using healthy male ...
INTRODUCTION: A definitive diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease (AD) requires the identification of pathological changes. Plasma miRNAs have emerged as potential AD diagnostic biomarkers. METHODS: Amatched case-control study ...
Extreme human lifespan, exemplified by supercentenarians, presents a paradox in understanding aging: despite advanced age, they maintain relatively good health. To investigate this duality, we have performed a high-throughput ...
Background: The assessment of deep brain stimulation (DBS) as a therapeutic alternative for treating Alzheimer disease (AD) is on-going. We aimed to determine the effects of intracranial self-stimulation at the medial ...
The potential applications of in vitro-produced (IVP) cattle embryos are significantly enhanced when combined with genotype selection and cryopreservation techniques. While trophectoderm (TE) biopsies are frequently used ...
The mucosal immune system is the largest immunological interface with the environment in our body. On the one hand, it contributes to the preservation of commensal microbiota by several mechanisms such production of secretory ...
Outer membrane vesicles (OMVs) are extracellular nanostructures released from Gram-negative bacteria. Acinetobacter baumannii OMVs (AbOMVs) have been extensively studied and can thus be used as a model for understanding ...
Gut colonization by Extended-spectrum ß-lactamase-producing Enterobacteriaceae (ESBL-E), is increasing among nonhospitalized children, but the impact of ESBL-E carriage on the intestinal microbiota remains unknown. In this ...
Luminescent platinum cyclometalated complexes are species of interest mainly due to their applications in the optoelectronic and biological fields, especially with regard to their anticancer activity. Given this level of ...
The overuse of antimicrobial agents in medical and veterinary applications has led to the development of antimicrobial resistance in some microorganisms and this is now one of the major concerns in modern society. In this ...
The European sardine exhibits drastic changes in body condition, growth, and reproduction outputs with fluctuating environments, leading to trade-offs in life history traits. This study aimed to compare the health status ...
Infertility affects 10-15% of reproductive-age couples, with causes ranging from genetic factors to unidentified reasons. Environmental conditions, particularly pollutants, play a significant role in male fertility. Yet, ...
Background: Protein acetylation has emerged as essential for sperm function, attracting considerable attention recently. Acetylation, typically mediated by lysine acetyltransferases, involves attaching an acetyl group from ...
Background: Oxidative stress, a source of genotoxic damage, is often the underlying mechanism in many functional cell disorders. Extracellular vesicles (EVs) have been shown to be key regulators of cellular processes and ...
The follicular fluid (FF) is crucial for providing oocytes with an ideal environment that promotes their development and maturation. Not only does this fluid supply nutrients and hormones, but also other components that ...
Seminal plasma (SP), a fluid composed of secretions from the male genital tract, is rich in seminal extracellular vesicles (sEVs), nano-sized particles surrounded by a lipid bilayer membrane and loaded with functionally ...
Matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization-time of flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS) is a proteomic technique with proven efficiency in the identification of microorganisms, such as bacteria, fungi, and parasites. ...
