Background: East African cichlid fishes have diversified in an explosive fashion, but the (epi)genetic basis of the phenotypic diversity of these fishes remains largely unknown. Although transposable elements (TEs) have been associated with phenotypic variation in cichlids, little is known about their transcriptional activity and epigenetic silencing. We set out to bridge this gap and to understand the interactions between TEs and their cichlid hosts.

Article Synopsis
  • Wildlife biodiversity helps keep ecosystems healthy and strong.
  • Scientists study this diversity to learn more about life and how it started.
  • Due to the rapid loss of various species, immediate action is needed from conservationists, and new techniques like stem cell technologies could help protect animal diversity.

Objective: To determine the effect of 12 weeks of beach tennis training on 24-h ambulatory blood pressure in adults with essential hypertension.

Methods: This was a randomized, single-blinded, two-arm, parallel superiority trial. Forty-two participants aged 35-65 years with a previous diagnosis of hypertension were randomized into 12 weeks of beach tennis training group (two sessions per week lasting 45-60 min) or a nonexercising control group.

Image-based lineage tracing enables tissue turnover kinetics and lineage potentials of different adult cell populations to be investigated. Previously, we reported a genetic mouse model system, Red2Onco, which ectopically expressed mutated oncogenes together with red fluorescent proteins (RFP). This system enabled the expansion kinetics and neighboring effects of oncogenic clones to be dissected.
