Endocardial HDAC3 is required for myocardial trabeculation.

Failure of proper ventricular trabeculation is often associated with congenital heart disease. Support from endocardial cells, including the secretion of extracellular matrix and growth factors is critical for trabeculation. However, it is poorly understood how the secretion of extracellular matrix and growth factors is initiated and regulated by endocardial cells.

Endocardial HDAC3 is required for myocardial trabeculation.

Background: Trabeculation, a key process in early heart development, is the formation of myocardial trabecular meshwork. The failure of trabeculation often leads to embryonic lethality. Support from endocardial cells, including the secretion of extracellular matrix (ECM) and growth factors is critical for trabeculation; however, it is unknown how the secretion of ECM and growth factors is initiated and regulated by endocardial cells.

Online micro intervention for mood improvement: The role of confidence, motivation, and activity type.

Background: Internet interventions provide a unique opportunity to increase widespread accessibility of treatment at reduced and scalable costs (Muñoz, 2010). Previous research has explored the impact of specific types of activities on participant's main depressive symptoms i.e.

Psychometric Properties of a Chatbot Version of the PHQ-9 With Adults and Older Adults.

The Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9) is a brief depression measure that has been validated. A chatbot version of the PHQ-9 would allow the assessment of depressive symptoms remotely, at a large scale and low cost. The current study aims to: Assess the feasibility of administering the PHQ-9 in a sample of adults and older adults chatbot, report the psychometric properties of and identify the relationship between demographic variables and PHQ-9 total scores.

Correction to: Characterization of polymorphic loci for two cicada species: Cryptotympana atrata and Hyalessa fuscata (Hemiptera: Cicadidae).

Unfortunately the title of the original publication contains a typo. Instead of (Hemiptera: Cicadoidae) it should be (Hemiptera: Cicadidae).

Characterization of polymorphic loci for two cicada species: Cryptotympana atrata and Hyalessa fuscata (Hemiptera: Cicadoidae).

The cicada species Cryptotympana atrata and Hyalessa fuscata are abundant in metropolitan Seoul where their population densities are positively correlated with local urban heat island intensities. Here, we characterized two panels of polymorphic markers for both species. A set of 21 microsatellite markers previously developed for a Chinese population of C.
