Leptin is an essential hormone for the regulation of energy metabolism and food intake in vertebrate animals.To better understand the physiological roles of leptin in nutrient regulation in paternal ovoviviparous fish (family Syngnathidae), the present study cloned the full-length of leptin-a and leptin receptor (lepr) genes in lined seahorse (Hipp
In light of the innumerable changes in post-secondary environments that reflect a movement toward inclusive education and a reliance on real-world evaluations in the form of field placements, Womens Shacket we report on our findings from a collaborative research project that examines field placement experiences from a variety of perspectives.Our re
Aiming at the technology of hydraulic fracturing assisted oil displacement which combines hydraulic fracturing, seepage and oil displacement, an experimental system of energy storage and flowback in fracturing assisted oil displacement process has been developed and used to simulate the mechanism of percolation, energy storage, oil displacement and
In this article we explore some of the affective and Mechanical Portion Scales ethical dimensions that we have faced as parent academic-activists seeking to understand and undo some of the structural transphobia that currently exists in Canadian society.Informed by critical feminist, critical race Cameras and black feminist thought, trans* scholars
Abstract Background Spermatogonial stem cells (SSCs) are capable of both self-renewal and differentiation to mature functional spermatozoa, being the only adult stem cells in the males that can transmit genetic information to the next generation.Porcine SSCs hold great value in transgenic pig production and in establishment of porcine models for re
