VISUALIZATION OF GENOME DIVERSITY IN GERMAN SHEPHERD DOGS

Visualization of Genome Diversity in German Shepherd Dogs

A loss of genetic diversity may lead to increased disease risks in subpopulations of dogs.The canine a&d ej-123 breed structure has contributed to relatively small effective population size in many breeds and can limit the options for selective breeding strategies to maintain diversity.With the completion of the canine genome sequencing project, an

Abnormal expression of cortical cell cycle regulators underlying anxiety and depressive-like behavior in mice exposed to chronic stress

BackgroundThe cell cycle is a critical mechanism for proper cellular growth, development and viability.The p16INK4a and p21Waf1/Cip1 are important regulators of the cell cycle progression in response to internal and external stimuli (e.g., stress).Accumulating evidence indicates that the prefrontal cortex (PFC) is particularly vulnerable to stress,
