Article Synopsis
- - The study investigates the mechanical properties and biochemical composition of cartilage endplates (CEPs) in human lumbar intervertebral discs, focusing on variations across different regions (central, lateral, anterior, and posterior).
- - Findings reveal that swelling pressure and aggregate modulus of CEPs vary significantly by region, with the lowest values observed centrally, while no notable differences in permeability were found.
- - The research highlights that CEP porosity plays a critical role in influencing these mechanical properties and provides insights for understanding the biomechanics of healthy endplates, which could inform future studies on intervertebral disc degeneration.
Here we isolated and characterized the complete mitochondrial genome of the hybrid grouper (♀ × ♂). It is 16,503 bp long and contains 13 protein-coding genes, 2 rRNA genes, 22 tRNA genes, and a control region. The nucleotide composition is 29.

It is cultured artificially and used as a breeding species in aquaculture due to its rapid growth rate. Here we report a giant grouper genome assembled at the chromosome scale from sequences generated using Illumina and high-throughput chromatin conformation capture (Hi-C) technology.
