Aging is a ubiquitous biological process that limits the maximal lifespan of most organisms.Significant efforts by Gags many groups have identified mechanisms that, when triggered by natural or artificial stimuli, are sufficient to either enhance or decrease maximal lifespan.Previous aging studies using the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans (C.elegan
Social Structure Facilitated the Evolution of Care-giving as a Strategy for Disease Control in the Human Lineage
Abstract Humans are the only species to have evolved cooperative care-giving as a strategy for disease control.A synthesis of evidence from the fossil record, paleogenomics, human ecology, and disease transmission models, suggests that care-giving for the diseased evolved as part of the unique suite of cognitive and socio-cultural specializations t
Similarity measures for Fermatean fuzzy sets and its applications in group decision-making
The intention of this paper is to propose some similarity measures between Fermatean fuzzy sets (FFSs).Firstly, we propose some score based similarity measures for finding similarity measures of FFSs and also propose score based cosine similarity measures between FFSs.Furthermore, we Wheel Stopper Seat introduce three newly scored functions for eff
Cascading effects of polyphenol-rich purple corn pericarp extract on pupal, adult, and offspring of tobacco hornworm (Manduca sexta L.)
A major bottleneck in the commercialization of plant-based pest management compounds is that the extraction methods are complex, time-consuming, and even highly expensive.Using a recently developed inexpensive extraction and quantification methodology to isolate polyphenols (including anthocyanins and condensed tannins) from purple corn pericarp, w
Mechanistic Evaluation of the Impact of Smoking and Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease on the Nasal Epithelium
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is one of the major causes of chronic morbidity and mortality worldwide.The development of markers of COPD onset is hampered by the lack of accessibility to Wheel Stopper Seat the primary target tissue, and there is a need to consider other sample sources as surrogates for biomarker research.Airborne tox
