In April 2000 researchers from around the world met in Lexington, Kentucky to bring together the very latest information on the chemistry and biological effects of the environmental pollutants known as Polychlorinated Biphenyls (PCBs). The result is a comprehensive and extensive treatment of the very latest findings on all significant subjects relating to PCBs and their health risks. The thorough introduction and sixty-two scientific papers presented here represent the most up-to-date research by scientists in government, private industry, and academia.
The 9th International Symposium on the Biology of Vertebrate Sex Determination (VSD) is a highly regarded event to be held in Kailua-Kona, HI, USA from 17 April 2023 to 21 April 2023. This unique symposium is attended by the entire international field working on sex determination in diverse vertebrate systems, such as amphibians, fishes, birds, reptiles, monotreme, marsupial, and eutherian mammals, including domesticated species, mice, and humans. The main objective of this meeting to bring the community together so that junior and senior scientists can exchange information, using a comparative approach to advance our understanding of the process of sex determination, sex differentiation, disorders and differences of sex development, and environmental impacts on this process. Support from VSD, from academic institutions and from commercial sponsors allows us to offer traveling awards for trainees which maximises their involvement and further grows the vertebrate sex determination biology community.
Neurobiology of PTSD outlines the basic neural mechanisms that mediate complex responses and adaptations to psychological trauma; describes how these biological processes are impaired in individuals with posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD); and discusses how the environmental exposure to trauma interacts with the brain to create the syndrome of PTSD.
Exocytosis, a universal process of eukaryotic cells, consisting of the fusion between the vesicle and the plasma membrane is an important topic in cell biology, physiology, biophysics, biochemistry and many other disciplines. The understanding of this rather complex process is essential for the understanding of normal function of unicellular and multicellular organisms from animal to plant kingdoms and in pathological conditions as well.
The ovary plays a very significant role in aging. The regenerative capacity of stem cells is the key factor to promote healthy aging, and the stem cell viability would decline sharply after the reproductive period, especially in women. Except for stem cell aging and neuroendocrine aging, ovarian aging is also a hotspot in the field of aging research. Recent researches have investigated many factors affecting ovarian function or aging, in terms of gene mutation, epigenetic erosion, endocrine dysfunction and environment-dependent extrinsic factors. This Research Topic aims to explore in detail all the factors related to ovarian aging and female reproduction outcomes. We'll discuss various age-...
