Ectopic expression of syndecan-1 in basal epidermis affects keratinocyte proliferation and wound re-epithelialization (2007)
Journal Article
Ojeh, N., Hiilesvuo, K., Wärri, A., Salmivirta, M., Henttinen, T., & Maatta, A. (2007). Ectopic expression of syndecan-1 in basal epidermis affects keratinocyte proliferation and wound re-epithelialization. Journal of Investigative Dermatology, 128(1), 26-34. https://doi.org/10.1038/sj.jid.5700967

Epidermal proliferation and differentiation can be regulated by soluble morphogens and growth factors. Heparan sulfate proteoglycans (HSPGs) modulate the action of several of these effector molecules, such as members of the fibroblast growth factor (...

Field Evaluation of Traditionally Used Plant-Based Insect Repellents and Fumigants Against the Malaria Vector Anopheles darlingi in Riberalta, Bolivian Amazon (2007)
Journal Article
Moore, S. J., Hill, N., Ruiz, C., & Cameron, M. M. (2007). Field Evaluation of Traditionally Used Plant-Based Insect Repellents and Fumigants Against the Malaria Vector Anopheles darlingi in Riberalta, Bolivian Amazon. Journal of Medical Entomology, 44(4), 624-630. https://doi.org/10.1093/jmedent/44.4.624

Inexpensive insect repellents may be needed to supplement the use of impregnated bed-nets in the Amazon region, where the primary malaria vector, Anopheles darlingi (Root), is exophilic and feeds in the early evening. Three plants that are traditiona...

Microbial larvicides for malaria control in The Gambia (2007)
Journal Article
Majambere, S., Lindsay, S., Green, C., Kandeh, B., & Fillinger, U. (2007). Microbial larvicides for malaria control in The Gambia. Malaria Journal, 6, Article 76. https://doi.org/10.1186/1475-2875-6-76

Background: Mosquito larval control may prove to be an effective tool for incorporating into integrated vector management (IVM) strategies for reducing malaria transmission. Here the efficacy of microbial larvicides against Anopheles gambiae s.l. was... Read More about Microbial larvicides for malaria control in The Gambia.

Nuclear membrane disassembly and rupture (2007)
Journal Article
Cotter, L., Allen, T. D., Kiseleva, E., & Goldberg, M. W. (2007). Nuclear membrane disassembly and rupture. Journal of Molecular Biology, 369(3), 683-695. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jmb.2007.03.051

The nuclear envelope consists of two membranes traversed by nuclear pore complexes. The outer membrane is continuous with the endoplasmic reticulum. At mitosis nuclear pore complexes are dismantled and membranes disperse. The mechanism of dispersal i... Read More about Nuclear membrane disassembly and rupture.

Evolution of population structure in a highly social top predator, the killer whale (2007)
Journal Article
Hoelzel, A., Hey, J., Dahlheim, M., Nicholson, C., Burkanov, V., & Black, N. (2007). Evolution of population structure in a highly social top predator, the killer whale. Molecular Biology and Evolution, 24(6), 1407-1415. https://doi.org/10.1093/molbev/msm063

Intraspecific resource partitioning and social affiliations both have the potential to structure populations, though it is rarely possible to directly assess the impact of these mechanisms on genetic diversity and population divergence. Here, we addr... Read More about Evolution of population structure in a highly social top predator, the killer whale.

High spatial resolution mapping of malaria transmission risk in The Gambia, West Africa, using LANDSAT TM satellite imagery. (2007)
Journal Article
Bogh, C., Lindsay, S., Clarke, S., Dean, A., Jawara, M., Pinder, M., & Thomas, C. (2007). High spatial resolution mapping of malaria transmission risk in The Gambia, West Africa, using LANDSAT TM satellite imagery. American Journal of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene, 76(5), 875-881

Understanding local variability in malaria transmission risk is critically important when designing intervention or vaccine trials. Using a combination of field data, satellite image analysis, and GIS modeling, we developed a high-resolution map of m...
