Zebrafish Bone and General Physiology Are Differently Affected by Hormones or Changes in Gravity by Jessica Aceto (752869)

“…Finally, we propose a novel type of experimental approach, the "Reduced Gravity Paradigm", by keeping the developing larvae at 3g hypergravity for the first 5 days before returning them to 1g for one additional day. 5 days exposure to 3g during these early stages also caused increased bone formation, while gene expression analysis revealed a central network of regulatory genes (<i>hes5</i>, <i>sox10</i>, <i>lgals3bp</i>, <i>egr1</i>, <i>edn1</i>, <i>fos</i>, <i>fosb</i>, <i>klf2</i>, <i>gadd45ba</i> and <i>socs3a</i>) whose expression was consistently affected by the transition from hyper- to normal gravity.…”

Migrants, healthy worker effect, and mortality trends in the Gulf Cooperation Council countries by Karima Chaabna (785895)
