Article Synopsis
- Round goby is an invasive fish affecting the Great Lakes, while Johnny darter is a native species that coexists with it, and both are studied for genomic variation in Lower Michigan.
- Researchers analyzed mitochondrial gene ND2 across 17 localities to see if populations of these species differed between the eastern and western basins of the Great Lakes.
- Findings showed that round goby populations were genetically homogenous and lacked significant historical structure, while Johnny darter populations displayed recent differentiation, indicating that local factors influence genetic variation more than historical ones.
Calcium pyrophosphate dihydrate deposition (CPPD), commonly known as pseudogout, is an inflammatory arthropathy primarily affecting the knee, wrist, hip, and shoulder joints. However, it can occasionally deposit in various structures surrounding the spinal column, including the facet joints, ligamentum flavum, bursae, and intervertebral discs. Such occurrences are typically asymptomatic or associated with mild neck pain.

Strategies to reduce air pollution exposure can therefore help prevent cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. This study was conducted to assess the awareness among U.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFAcute myeloid leukemia (AML) is characterized by the accumulation of immature myeloid cells in the bone marrow and the peripheral blood. Nearly half of the AML patients relapse after standard induction therapy, and new forms of therapy are urgently needed. Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T therapy has so far not been successful in AML due to lack of efficacy and safety.
