Abstract The discovery of secondary metabolites from marine microorganisms is beset by numerous challenges including difficulties cultivating and subsequently eliciting expression of biosynthetic genes from marine microbes in the laboratory.In this paper, we describe a method of culturing three species from the marine bacterial genus Pseudoalteromo

The widely used animal models for tuberculosis (TB) display fundamental differences from human TB.Therefore, a validated model that recapitulates human lung TB is attractive for TB research.Here, we describe a unique method for establishment of TB infection in an experimental human lung tissue model.The model is based on cell lines derived from hum

The Dolese Limestone Quarry near Richards Spur, Oklahoma includes an elaborate system of caves which have been infilled with early 5326058hx Permian fossil rich sediments.In operation for more than a century, the quarry yielded vast numbers of disarticulated skeletal elements of the most diverse assemblage of fully terrestrial tetrapods from the Pa

Alopecia (loss of volume or complete loss of hair) can be a symptom of many diseases.In some cases it is a symptom of a local pathology limited to the scalp, in others it is a dermatological symptom of a systemic pathology.In almost every case, alopecia has a significant impact on the quality 5326058hx of life and may cause limitations in professio
