Jan. 30, 2025 — A new study has highlighted the potential of resveratrol, a natural compound found in grapes, blueberries, and raspberries, to enhance female fertility. The systematic review ...

As males age, their reproductive success typically declines. A study on fruit flies, led by University of Oxford researchers, has found that while old males do produce fewer offspring than young males ...

Consequently, the Drosophila DV axis is determined. In amphibian embryos, the establishment of the DV axis relies on the redistribution of localized maternal determinants in yolk cells during embryo ...

Identifying collective migration as a shared theme might encourage greater links and cross-fertilization between ... is dorsal closure in the Drosophila melanogaster embryo, whereby a large ...

The paper presents a streamlined new approach for functional validation of genes known to underlie fragile bone disorders in a relatively high throughput, using CRISPR-mediated knockouts and a number ...

Spin Hall nano-oscillators (SHNOs) are nanoscale spintronic devices that convert direct current into high-frequency microwave signals through spin wave auto-oscillations. This is a type of ...

Jan. 16, 2025 — Studies have shown a persistent gender gap when it comes to wages -- disparities that stretch over decades. Past analyses have pointed to various causes for this discrepancy, but ...

Methylation at primary DMRs is inherited from the parents at fertilization. Methylation at secondary DMRs is gained during embryogenesis ... an ancient mechanism of clearing dead cells and debris. In ...
