GAIN-OF-FUNCTION, FOCAL SEGMENTAL GLOMERULOSCLEROSIS TRPC6 MUTATION MINIMALLY AFFECTS SUSCEPTIBILITY TO RENAL INJURY IN SEVERAL MOUSE MODELS

Gain-of-function, focal segmental glomerulosclerosis Trpc6 mutation minimally affects susceptibility to renal injury in several mouse models

Mutations in TRPC6 are a cause of autosomal dominant focal segmental glomerulosclerosis in humans.Many of these mutations are known to have a gain-of-function effect on the non-specific cation channel function of TRPC6.In vitro studies have suggested these mutations affect several signaling pathways, but in vivo studies have largely compared wild-t

Optimization of a novel lead-free MASiI3 based perovskite solar cell: A comprehensive study on device performance enhancement

Methylammonium Silicon Iodide (MASiI3), a novel perovskite material, has recently garnered significant attention for its potential to enhance the stability of solar cells.However, MASiI3-based perovskite solar cells (PSCs) have yet to achieve high performance.In this study, we utilized SCAPS-1D device modeling to investigate and optimize the perfor

X-linked gene transcription patterns in female and male in vivo, in vitro and cloned porcine individual blastocysts.

To determine the presence of sexual dimorphic transcription and how in vitro culture environments influence X-linked gene transcription patterns in preimplantation embryos, we analyzed mRNA expression levels in in vivo-derived, in vitro-fertilized (IVF), and cloned porcine blastocysts.Our results clearly show that sex-biased expression occurred bet
